Is the repentance of a mother who used to practice sorcery and associate partners with Allah accepted after she has repented and does not want to return to the path of charlatanry?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The correct and accepted repentance involves abandoning the sin, resolving not to return to it, and regretting having committed it. "One who repents from a sin is like one who has no sin." So, let the mother be gladdened with God's forgiveness if she is sincere in her repentance, and let her increase in acts of obedience and supererogatory prayers; for "indeed, good deeds do away with ill deeds."
