Fatwa

Renewing Imaan

Question

I’ve unknowingly committed shirk or kufr and after knowing I sincerely repented and make taubah to never do that again. When I did that sin I did alone but I had shared with my friends regarding my sin (like I’ve believe what I’ve doing what I’ve seeing which is perhaps shirk or kufr) I’ve shared with my 2or 3 friends (one is non Muslim and second is muslim) so should I take tajdeed e iman infront of them or alone or do I take infront of anyone? Which kalima we have to recite 1st or 2nd?After that I had already take tajdeed e iman so many times every morning and night whenever I had thoughts regarding my past sin I recite 1st kalima plz reply to my question fast

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Respected Brother/Sister,

The fact that you have made sincere tawbah and already professed your faith multiple times is a sign of your true Imaan.

You do not need to worry about anything, your Imaan is intact and sound. Imaan is simply to believe that only Almighty Allah is worthy of worship and that Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is His final messenger. You already believe that, your Imaan is intact.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
