SHAFAQNA – What is the connection between immorality and repentance?
It is narrated from the Prophet of Islam (PBUH) who said: Allah (SWT) will not grant the success of repenting to an immoral person. The prophet (PBUH) was asked: How can this happen? The Prophet (PBUH) replied: Because whenever he/she (an immoral person) wants to repent from a sin, will get into difficulty of a bigger sin than the first one [1].
