The Ruling on the Testimony of One Who Accused Another of Adultery and Then Repented

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man falsely accuses another man of adultery and then repents afterward, is his testimony accepted?

Answer:
Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:
Except for those who repent after that and correct themselves. For indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.إِلَّا الَّذِينَ تَابُوا مِن بَعْدِ ذَٰلِكَ وَأَصْلَحُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
[Ali 'Imran 3:89]
So if he repents, Allah turns to him in mercy. Yes.
