· 15 Muharram 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If I uttered a kufr word or shirk word and said the shahadah but did not repeat the mistake again and never sought forgiveness from the sin and were to die upon that state what will happen to me on yawmul qiyamah?

Answer

As long as you are sincere in repeating the kalimah, Allah Ta`ala will forgive you.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
