Salat­ul­Tawbah (Prayer of Repentance)
Page 130
Q 3: A young man inquires, "I committed some evil deeds during my early youth but I turned to Allah in repentance. Praise and thanks are due to Allah. I am still concerned and I heard that there a Salah (Prayer) called Salat­ul­Tawbah. I hope you will explain this to me. May Allah reward you the best.
A: Indeed, turning to Allah (Exalted be He) in repentance removes the sins committed in the past. Praise be to Allah Who prescribed so. Thus, you should be at ease regarding this and should think well of your Lord and believe that Allah (Exalted be He) accepted your repentance
And all of you beg Allâh to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful
And verily, I am indeed forgiving to him who repents, believes (in My Oneness, and associates none in worship with Me) and does righteous good deeds, and then remains constant in doing them, (till his death).
O you who believe! Turn to Allâh with sincere repentance! It may be that your Lord will expiate from you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise)
I am to my slave as he thinks of Me.
Let none of you die unless he has good expectations from Allah.
When a servant (of Allah) commits a sin and he performs ablution well, offers two rak'ahs (units of Prayer), and repents to Allah, Allah pardons him.
