\n\tQuestion:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWhat is true meaning of tauba in islam? If a young person is ashamed of what he has done in past and he beg to Allah for His mercy and forgiveness and it is not possible for him to ask forgiveness from those whose non- financial rights were exploited by him due to fear of fitna\/enmity\/further anger then what does shariah say in this regard? Is he able to be forgiven by ALLAH because at the time he was exploiting rights(non-economic) of others he was not aware that these harms would invite anger of ALLAH due to lack of knowledge, shaitan's dominance, anger, enmity and other bad feelings. But now he has realized all his past mistakes and he has started changing his life but always have fear that ALL PROBLEMS IN HIS LIFE ARE DUE TO PAST MISTAKES AND SINS.He is facing so many losses,problems and mental stress in his life.he is deprived of blessings of life.is that makafat e amal?if yes,then what should he do?is there any way out?is there any ray of hope?despite true toba and change in life style still he deserve saza?he is young person and has long life to spend?IN ISLAM WHAT IS THE STATUS OF SUCH PERSON?Does he deserve mercy of Allah?can True repentance and sincerity towards life bring improvement in his wordly matters and failures or will the saza in the form of failures in life continue?please give guidance in the matter. <\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"Bismillah\"<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAllah is the Most Merciful, the Most Kind and he forgives all our sins if we sincerely repent for our shortcomings however, grave and serious it may be.    <\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe following are some ahadith which have been taken from Imam Nawawi’s Riyadhus Saliheen indicating towards the merciful nature of Allah \"sub\u1e25\u0101nahu.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
