The Shaykh : So, is the "ham" here connected or disconnected? ... What is the difference between the connected and the disconnected? ... That is, it means "or," and it is necessary that there be a mention of two opposing things in it. As for the disconnected one, it means "but" and does not necessitate negation; that is, it does not necessitate combining two similar things. All right.
The Shaykh : The saying of Allah the Exalted:[Ash-Shuraa 42:25] We ask about the conditions of repentance in general? There are five: Sincerity to Allah the Exalted, and the second is regret ...
The Shaykh : What do you say about the repentance of a man who stole money from a person, then the one from whom it was stolen disappeared and did not know about it, and he despaired of his return? He regretted and repented to Allah and feared the punishment of Allah ... Now, he does not know about him, so a condition is disrupted without his choice ... That is, it means his repentance is not complete unless he takes this stolen money out of his ownership and gives it in charity. All right, good.
