Is it permissible to eat from the sacrifice of a person who repented from insulting the Divine Being, but it is highly probable that he did not truly repent?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Reviling Allah the Almighty is an act of disbelief that expels one from the fold of Islam. If a person repents with sincere repentance that fulfills its conditions, then Allah the Almighty accepts his repentance, according to the majority of scholars, due to His saying: "Say, 'O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful.'"
