Question

Is reminding someone of their past errors allowed in Islam especially when it was something haraam?

Answer

This is extremely vile disgraceful behaviour. The fear is that the person that is insulting may become a victim.

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.
