Is supplicating for those whose state of belief – whether they are disbelievers or not – is unknown considered an act of disbelief? And does Allah forgive repeated repentance from disbelief?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The questioner is advised to disregard the numerous obsessive thoughts he is experiencing. The questioner has not fallen into disbelief. Whoever intentionally commits a sin should hasten to repent, for Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent and rejoices in it. Allah Almighty says: "And whoever does evil or wrongs himself then seeks forgiveness of Allah will find Allah Forgiving and Merciful," and He Almighty says: "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.'"
