Is repentance for insulting God and His Messenger invalid if it is accompanied by committing other sins such as smoking and watching movies?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Cursing Allah and His Messenger is disbelief that expels one from the fold of Islam, and its perpetrator deserves eternity in Hellfire. However, Allah has opened the door of repentance for whoever repents with a sincere repentance that fulfills its conditions, which are remorse, abstaining from the sin, and resolving not to return to it. If one repents from a sin while persisting in another unrelated sin, their repentance is accepted.
