Accepting the Tawbah of someone who commits the same sins again


501

A: All praise be to Allah (Exalted be He) that He guided you to self-reckoning and Tawbah from your sins, may Allah bless you! Please beware and let not Satan and your self that is inclined to evil overcome you and pull you back to committing what Allah has prohibited. If you do this, you are reneging on your Tawbah, because the conditions of a true Tawbah are that you should: (Part No. 24; Page No. 311) 1. Give up the sin.2. Regret having committed it.3. Resolve never to commit it again.If you have made Tawbah from a sin that involves a violation of someone’s rights, whether the wrong done was against their property, honor, or life, there is a fourth condition, which is that you should also ask the person to forgive you or give them back their rights. If the Tawbah is true, you will not be called to account for the sins you committed before it. It is obligatory on you to make Tawbah for the sins committed after it; whenever you commit a sin, you have to make Tawbah according to the aforementioned conditions.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
