Forgiveness and Repentance

Re: Forgiveness and Repentance

However one thing perplexes me which is, let’s say you sincerely repent for something. You repented and changed your behavior but still feel guilty.

How do you know when you’ve been forgiven for your sin, if Allah swt has accepted your prayers for forgiveness? Is there a specific way to do that?

If you still feel guilty, it could possibly also mean that you have just disappointed yourself too much for the wrong that you have done. So for any Sane, Decent and God fearing person i think this feeling is normal. It’s alot better than just be indifferent or thinking so what, i said sorry now i am fine. Maybe it’s God’s way of keeping you at your toe; careful and cautious as to not repeat the same again.

I would recommend you to keep your relationship with Allah strong by praying regularly and meditating. Believe me it will help you alot to put yourself at ease and also stronger your bond with the Almighty :).
