Will my repentance be accepted after I was forced into adultery, and now I am drawing closer to Allah, and I have married without informing my husband of my past; should I tell him the truth?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A sincere repentance erases sins, and the one who repents from a sin is like one who has no sin. Repentance is achieved by abandoning the sin, regretting it, and resolving not to return to it, along with the obligation to conceal oneself and not expose oneself, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever commits any of these abominations should conceal himself with the concealment of Allah."
