We Repent Temporarily, but Allah Always Forgives

We Repent Temporarily, but Allah Always Forgives While we go about living our daily lives, many times we find ourselves at a loss of hope because of our sins. A lot of times this is because we decide to live our lives in a state of “Carpe Diem,” which in Latin means “live in the moment.” We find ourselves being halfhearted and insincere when we want to repent.

Furthermore, at the very least, we should not question why something has happened to us. Let’s take a moment and reflect on the story of Adam and Iblis.
