Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener Sa'id Ahmad from Tabuk says: Shaykh, my soul is weak, and I commit sins, then I repent, and then I return to the sin. What do you advise me to do?
Answer:
I advise you to persist in repentance and not to despair of the mercy of Allah. Every time you sin, you repent. Yes, one of the conditions of repentance is the resolve not to return to it, but if Shaytan or the soul inclined to evil overcomes you and you commit the sin again, repeat the repentance. Allah accepts the repentance of the one who repents. Yes.
