Question:
Those who repent, then return to the violations a second time, then return to repentance again, is their repentance accepted?
Answer:
Every time they return to repentance, it is accepted from them, provided their initial repentance was valid, then they fell into the sin, then they repented; Allah repents for them. The texts came with this from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Qur'an also indicates it, if he is not a playboy, but rather repents with sincere repentance, then is afflicted with the sin, then repents; Allah repents for him, and so on, even if it is ten times. The important thing is just the truthfulness, that he is truthful in his repentance, then he is afflicted with the sin after that. Yes, we ask Allah for well-being.
The presenter: O Allah, amen. May Allah reward you, O Shaykh.
