What is the ruling on someone who published prohibited video clips containing false speech, then repented but did not ask those to whom he sent them to delete them? Is his repentance unacceptable?

If a person repents, they must remove the traces of their sin if they are able. If they are unable, their repentance remains valid, and they are not harmed by the lingering effect of the disobedience they could not erase. Accordingly, a person who publishes prohibited clips must delete them, advise those to whom he sent them, and demand that they erase them to clear his conscience, even if they do not respond to him.
