The answer

The questioner's repentance from sin and his persistence in it erase the effects of the sin and its punishment in this world and the Hereafter, making him like one who has not sinned. Allah, the Almighty, says: "And it is He who accepts repentance from His servants and pardons sins, and He knows what you do." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The one who repents from sin is like one who has no sin." Ibn Taymiyyah said: "The one who repents will not be punished, neither in this world nor in the Hereafter."
