The Sin After Repentance and the Authenticity of the Report Thereon

Question:
It is reported in a narration that a sin committed after repentance is more severe than seventy sins committed before it. As the brother said, may Allah bestow His favor upon you, and we ask Allah that you have returned to the state in which your mothers bore you. We hope that you will urge the committees for enjoining good and forbidding evil to look into the exposure of women and non-mahrams in the markets. May Allah protect you.

Answer:
I do not believe this report, nor do I know its authenticity. A sin after repentance being seventy thousand times worse—I do not know of this, and I do not recall it being authentic from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). We ask Allah to guide everyone to the right path. Returning to sins after repentance is a serious matter, so one must be cautious, and the servant, once he has repented, should continue. Yes.
