The answer

The ruling on masturbation and the ruling on rape have been previously clarified. If a Muslim repents with sincere repentance, Allah will forgive them. The narrated by Ibn Hibban and authenticated by Al-Albani: "If a woman prays her five prayers, fasts her month, guards her chastity, and obeys her husband, it will be said to her: 'Enter Paradise from whichever of its gates you wish'," this is conditional upon avoiding other major sins, or sincere repentance, or forgiveness for them. What a woman fell into in her childhood before puberty, or repented from after it, Allah will not hold her accountable for it and it will not exclude her from this promise.
