How can a married woman committed to her religion rid herself of a sin that she has repeatedly committed, despite her numerous attempts at repentance, supplication, and drawing closer to Allah? And does the death of a disobedient person stop their sins?

It is obligatory to earnestly strive against the self before it is too late, and to seek Allah's help. Do not surrender to the discouragement of Satan, who desponds of Allah's mercy. Be mindful of Allah's watchful eye and contemplate death while in the act of disobedience. Persistently make supplication, associate with righteous company, seek knowledge, and recite the Qur'an with reflection, for in it there is healing. It is permissible to wish for death if one fears harm to one's religion.
