Dear User,
God, the Compassionate and the Merciful, has promised to forgive all the sins of the penitent, even the sin of associating with Him a partner.[1]
It is necessary to note that repentance from adultery or fornication is not different from repentance from other sins. What is important in Tawbah (repentance) is to be remorseful and to have a firm intention not to repeat the sin.
For further information about repentance, refer to the following indexes on our website:
