Feeling despondent after sinning
Question
If someone has done repeatative sins and he is unable to repent and is feeling Allah's anger on him, what should he do?
Answer
There is no need to feel that Allah Ta`ala is angry since the doors of repentance have never been closed for anybody, and moreover when His doors are ever open. In fact, the one who sincerely repents, Allah Ta`ala loves him. When Allah Ta`ala loves him then how can you say that Allah Ta`ala is angry with him.
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.
