Refusing to forgive someone
Question
If a person wrongs another and is persistent in always hurting that person and now that person asks for forgiveness, but the other does not forgive them because they are very hurt, is the person who does not forgive sinful in anyway and will it be that now Allah will not forgive that person too?
Answer
Yes.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
