Will the servant be shown on the Day of Judgment everything he saw, did, or said in front of people, even if he sought forgiveness and repented for it?
Displaying bad deeds on the Day of Judgment is a form of punishment. Whoever exposes his child in this world, Allah will expose him before all people. And for every betrayer, a banner will be raised proclaiming his betrayal. Conversely, concealing a Muslim's faults in this world necessitates Allah's concealment of his faults on the Day of Judgment. Sincere repentance removes the traces of sins and cancels the punishment, and one who repents from a sin is like one who has no sin. The conditions for sincere repentance to Allah are: abandoning the disobedience, regretting it, and resolving not to return to it. If it involves the right of another human being, then an additional condition is added: returning the right or seeking forgiveness from the person. The sins of a sincere penitent will be shown to him privately on the Day of Judgment, and he will not be exposed before people, for repentance has erased their punishment.
