Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is Sa'id, a questioner from Algeria, who says: What is the ruling in Islam regarding one who commits these acts, and will his repentance be accepted? He breaks his fast in the month of Ramadan, is of sound mind, is undutiful to his parents, mocks the religion, is a talebearer and a backbiter, steals, uses narcotics, and goes to sorcerers.
Answer:
Repentance is obligatory from all sins, and it is accepted if its conditions are met. These are: ceasing the sin and abandoning it, resolving not to return to it, and feeling remorse for what one has done. If the sin from which one repents involves the rights of creation, then in addition to repenting to Allah, one must return the rights to their owners or seek their forgiveness. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
