Question

Does Salaatut Tasbeeh forgive your major sins when you read it?

Answer

It will be a means of forgiveness for minor sins. As far as major sins are concerned, tawbah is necessary.

Tawbah means having great remorse in the heart over one's sins and making a firm resolve to correct oneself.

Nevertheless, if one performs Salaatut Tasbeeh with the remorse in one's heart over the sins which one has committed, then it can be a means for the forgiveness of one's minor and major sins.

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