Question:
Salam Alaikom dear sister/brother,
I have a very important question and I will appreciate you all my life if you answer me back. I love a guy and he loves me and he always asked me to come over to his appartment but I never accepted because I knew that it’s a big sin. We always had fights because of that and I always told him that it’s a big sin by doing a zina but he never listened to me, finally I accepted to go and see him and we slept together I mean we had s**x. I never did such thing in my life never and now I regret a lot and ask our Allah (swt) forgiveness but still feel guilty , I pray, ask forgiveness but feel very bad. I can’t look at my mother’s eyes, I feel very sinful even if I’ve never done such a thing. Please tell me what should I do ? Will our marriage be accepted by our Allah (swt) or not ? And how should I pray for sin to be forgiven by our Allah (swt)? I will wait for your answer, thank you very much.
Answer:
Wa `alaykum salam
There is no marriage until he marries you. InshaAllah at that time it will be accepted (assuming he is Muslim). You must make tawba and repent sincerely asking through intercession of Prophet sall Allahu alayhi wa sallam and inshaAllah that tawba will be accepted.
