How is a major sin erased from the records, and does the Quranic address: "And those who avoid the major sins and immoralities, except for minor offenses," include the repentant?

Repentance to God is obligatory by ceasing the sin, feeling remorse, and resolving not to return to it. If the sin involves a human right, then one must clear their liability by returning financial rights or seeking forgiveness from the person whose right was infringed. If the conditions of sincere repentance are met, it is accepted and erases the effect of the sin, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The one who repents from sin is like one who has no sin."
