Is there a way to avoid punishment for a sin if the person genuinely repents and those affected offer their legitimate forgiveness? Will the punishment still take place in such a case?
Forgiveness gate is open for every sinner who sincerely repents and seeks forgiveness after giving the rights of the victims. We are been taught to always seek forgiveness and repeat Istighfaar day and night especially before sunset and before and after Salah and in the last sixth of the night (Sahar time).
Wassalam.
