Committing
errors and submitting sins are a piece of human instinct and nobody will be
liberated from it. We all miss the mark, submit sins, and commit errors. The
Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam said:
"Each
child of Adam sins, and the best of the individuals who sin are the individuals
who atone." (Tirmidhi, hasan by al-Albaani)
Also,
unquestionably, man is feeble however it is Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta'ala Who
made us and He realizes that we are powerless. So out of His Mercy, The Most
Merciful has opened the door of apology for us with the goal that we can go to
Him each time we sin. He Subhaanahu wa Ta'ala says:
قُلْ يَا عِبَادِيَ الَّذِينَ أَسْرَفُوا عَلَى أَنفُسِهِمْ لَا
تَقْنَطُوا مِن رَّحْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا
إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ
"Say:
O 'Ibaadi (My slaves) who have violated against themselves (by submitting
fiendish deeds and sins)! Sadness not of the Mercy of Allaah, verily, Allaah
excuses all transgressions. Genuinely, He is Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful"
[surah
Zumar:53]
What's
more, He said:
وَمَن يَعْمَلْ سُوءًا أَوْ يَظْلِمْ نَفْسَهُ ثُمَّ يَسْتَغْفِرِ
اللّهَ يَجِدِ اللّهَ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا
"Also,
whoever does wickedness or wrongs himself however subsequently looks for
Allaah's pardoning, he will discover Allaah Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful"
[al-Nisa'
:110]
Also,
the Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam said:
"Allaah
fans out His hand around evening time to acknowledge the atonement of the
person who trespassed during the day, and He fans out His hand by day to
acknowledge the contrition of the person who trespassed during the evening,
(and that will proceed) until the sun ascends from the west."
(Muslim)
So
this is what one can do:
1.
MAKE SINCERE TAUBAH:
It
is fundamental, rather VITAL, that you should go to Allaah and atone to Him.
Make earnest taubah and make an honest effort to avoid the transgression that
you are submitting.
The
ulama reveal to us that true taubah requires a few conditions with the goal for
Taubah to be acknowledged. They are:
1-You
should surrender the wrongdoing RIGHT AWAY.
2-You
ought to have extraordinary REGRET that you did it.
3-You
ought to have FIRM determination NEVER to return to it.
In
the event that any of these three is feeling the loss of, the apology isn't
earnest.
Also,
on the off chance that the wrongdoing has to do with the privileges of someone
else, there is a fourth condition notwithstanding the three referenced
previously. What's more, that is, reestablishing the privileges of that
individual or looking for his absolution. For instance, on the off chance that
somebody took cash or property, it should be gotten back to the individual he
took from, and so on
2.
MAKE DUA:
Make
genuine Dua to Allaah and request that he get you far from whatever it is that
you're doing. Cry over your transgression, implore Him for His Mercy and
request that he guide you, to invigorate you avoid terrible deeds and put your
heart right.
You
can make Dua any time or night however particularly during times when Dua is
bound to be acknowledged, for example, in your sujood during salah, in the late
evening during tahajjud, at the hour of breaking your quick, between the adhaan
and iqaamah, and so forth
3.
BE STEADFAST IN YOUR OBLIGATORY DEEDS
Give
unique consideration to your required deeds, particularly imploring FIVE times
each day. Be specific about your salah and DO NOT MISS ANY SINGLE ONE. That is
on the grounds that Allaah says:
وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ تَنْهَى عَنِ الْفَحْشَاء
وَالْمُنكَرِ
"What's
more, build up the supplication. Verily, As-Salât (the supplication) keeps from
Al-Fahshâ' (for example each sort of indecency, vulgarities, unlawful sex, and
so on) and Al-Munkar (for example incredulity, polytheism, and each sort of
malicious evil deed)"
(Surah
Ankabut:45)
4.
Peruse QUR'AAN WITH MEANING
The
issue that the majority of us have is that we don't comprehend the Qur'aan. We
may understand it yet what benefit is the perusing in the event that we don't
have a clue what our Rabb is saying to us? How might we realize what is
satisfying to Allaah and what isn't? How might we realize what is acceptable in
His eyes and what is terrible? So our Imaan falls low, we are an obvious
objective for the Shaytaan and we keep on erring. The answer for this issue,
no, the answer for ALL issues is that we begin perusing the Qur'aan with
significance, regardless of whether it's anything but a couple ayaat a day. It
is better for us and more satisfying to Allaah assuming we comprehend whatever
we read and, carry out it in our lives than to peruse juz upon juz without
comprehension and without execution.
5.
Carry out A LOT OF GOOD Things
for
example, doing a great deal of nawaafil supplications, or fasting, giving
cause, helping somebody, acquiring Islaamic information and so on
Allaah
reveals to us that great deeds eradicate awful deeds. Allaah says:
إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّـيِّئَاتِ
"Verily,
the great deeds counterbalance the underhanded deeds"
(Surah
Hud:114)
Additionally,
on the off chance that you'll be occupied with carrying out beneficial things,
you will not figure out how to carry out terrible things. Additionally, by
keeping yourself occupied with great deeds. you will feel harmony and serenity.
It will build your Imaan and you will feel awful about your wrongdoings and
missteps and reconsider before you return to them.
6.
Avoid BAD COMPANY
This
is a VERY IMPORTANT point. You should avoid individuals who do awful things and
don't fear Allaah. Avoid the individuals who assisted you with submitting this
wrongdoing. There are such countless cases in which individuals have returned
to sin since they continued associations with their previous colleagues. The
Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam said:
"A
man will be on the way of his dear companions, so focus on who you
befriend."
What's
more, he sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa sallam likewise said:
"The
similarity of an equitable partner is that of the merchant of musk: possibly he
will give you a blessing, or you will purchase something from him, or you will
smell a charming aroma from him. Furthermore, the similarity of a malicious
friend is that of the one who works the howls: possibly he will consume your
piece of clothing, or you will smell a horrendous scent from him."
(Bukhaari)
Terrible
companions will revile each other on the Day of Resurrection and flee from one
another. So you should avoid them and sever your fellowship with them before
they flee from you on the Day of Judgment.
Allaah
says:
الْأَخِلَّاء يَوْمَئِذٍ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّ إِلَّا
الْمُتَّقِينَ
"Companions
on that Day will be foes to each other with the exception of Al-Muttaqoon (the
devout)"
[Zukhruf:67]
All
things considered, pick equitable companions who will help you against your
nafs (self) and who will be an option in contrast to terrible organization.
Attempt to go to the masjid routinely, join an Islamic information class or
Dars and occupy your experience with valuable things so the Shaytaan won't
discover any chance to help you to remember the past.
7.
Avoid PLACES OF SIN
That
is on the grounds that going to such places may help you to remember your
negative propensities and your being there may make you fall into wrongdoing
once more.
8.
Annihilate THE HARAAM
You
ought to likewise obliterate all haraam things that you may currently possess,
whatever it very well might be that is making you sin. They ought to be broken,
annihilated or consumed. Try not to trifle with this point. It is fundamental
that you ought to dispose of every such thing. Since keeping these haraam
things may make you slip back.
9.
Look for PROFESSIONAL HELP
in
the event that you can, for whatever it is that you might be dependent on.
10.
SOME DUAS TO RECITE
Here
are some duas that one can discuss to ask Allaah for pardoning. You can say
them in Arabic or English, or whatever language you feel great with. The
significant thing is to UNDERSTAND these duas and SAY THEM FROM THE HEART,
similar to you mean them. Don't simply peruse these duas… rather, converse with
Allaah. Hold nothing back from Him and ask. He will respond to you and help
you.
(a)
رَبِّ اغْفِرْ وَارْحَمْ وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّاحِمِينَ
"Rabbi'ghfir
wa'rham wa anta khayru'l-raahimeen"

Lord! Pardon and show benevolence, for You are the Best of the individuals who
show leniency!)"
(b)
رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا وَإِسْرَافَنَا فِي أَمْرِنَا
"Rabbanaa
'ghfar lanaa dhunoobanaa wa israafanaa fi amrinaa
(Our
Lord! Excuse us our wrongdoings and offenses (in keeping our obligations to
You)."
(c)
The
Prophet sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa sallam said: "The best supplication for
looking for absolution is to say:
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَنِي وَأَنَا
عَبْدُكَ وَأَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ
شَرِّ مَا صَنَعْتُ أَبُوءُ لَكَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ عَلَيَّ وَأَبُوءُ لَكَ بِذَنْبِي
فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلا أَنْتَ
'Allaahumma
anta rabbi la ilaaha illa anta, Khalaqtani wa ana 'abduka wa ana 'ala 'ahdika
wa wa'dika mama astata't. A'oodhu bika min sharri mama sana'tu, aboo'u laka bi
ni'matika 'alayya wa aboo'u laka bi dhanbi, faghfir li fa innahu laa
yaghfiru'l-dhunoob illaa anta
(O
Allaah, You are my Lord. None has the privilege to be loved however You. You
made me and I am Your slave, and I am dedicated to my agreement and my
guarantee (to You) however much I can. I look for asylum with You from all the
underhanded I have done. I recognize before You every one of the gifts You have
presented to me, and I admit to You every one of my transgressions. So I
beseech You to pardon my wrongdoings, for no one can excuse sins aside from
You)."
Whoever
says this during the day, having confidence in it and kicks the bucket before
the evening comes, will be among the peop
