MiscellaneousTaubah and Repentancerepentance and tawbahzina

Question

A sister wants to know if she got caught out sleeping with another man few years back and she truly is sorry for this act. She has repented. How must she make amends so that Allah Ta'ala accepts her repentance? Must she make tawbah everyday? How must she make amends with her husband?

Answer

If she is absolutely sincere and honest she does not need to disclose this to her husband. The best way is that she needs to refrain from all doubtful areas, May Allah Ta`ala forgive her.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
