Basically I feel this is a complicated question for me . I know that all non-muslims who convert to Islam all their sins will be forgiven . But would that apply to my case in which my mom is muslim but my dad is an apostate who left Islam when I was born ? However , my father is an apostate who left Islam shortly after he married my mom but my mom during that time was devoted muslim . So all my life I want to say I had a non-muslim apostated father but a devoted muslim mom . My mom brought me and my siste to Islam, we took classes at the masjid and were more involved in praying 5 times a day but with time going past towards I became less religious and then ended up completely leaving Islam and sinning so much until age 16-17 I came back to Islam . Is my coming back to Islam means all my major&nbsp; sins are forgiven from the time I was 10 years old all the way until age 17 or no ? I was committing so many horriblly major sins .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Answer:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the outset, we would like to state that the belief of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa\u2019ah is that just committing a major sin does not take a person out of the fold of Islam<a href=\"#_edn1\" id=\"_ednref1\"><sup>[i]<\/sup><\/a>. A person will come out of the fold of Islam by his statements, beliefs or actions. If that was the case, then coming back to Islam by reciting the Kalimah Shahaadah would be an expiation of any sins committed before that time. If a person had the wrong beliefs or actions, even then, reciting the Kalimah Shahaadah with the intention of freeing oneself from any erroneous belief or action will expiate these wrongs<a><\/a><a href=\"#_edn2\" id=\"_ednref2\"><sup>[ii]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If, however, you did not do any of the above which puts a person out of the fold of Islam but you committed major sins and left out your religious obligations like Salaah, fasting etc. thinking that this placed you out of the fold of Islam, then you will have to make Qadhaa (make up) for those Salaah and fast which you missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some things which Allah <strong>\ufdfb<\/strong> and His messenger <strong>\ufdfa<\/strong> recommend that will expiate all sins both major and minor sins. One such thing is performing Hajj properlyii.A person may also perform two rakaah of optional Salaah (Salaah Tawbah) where he sincerely repents to Allah for all sins committed, while having the firm intention of not returning to those sins ever again. If a person performs this prayer with the intention mentioned thereafter he sits and make sincere Dua to Allah, In Shaa Allah all his previous sins will be forgiven. However, there are some major sins, part of their expiation is to return people\u2019s rights which were usurped. So if something was stolen from someone and the item is in the possession of the person who stole it, the item will need to be returned in order for the Tawbah to be accepted in the sight of Allah <strong>\ufdfb<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope and pray that Allah keeps you and us steadfast on Islam until our last breath. Ameen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>And Allah Ta\u2019\u0101la Knows Best<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mufti <\/strong><strong>Mujahid Dan Lubrin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>04<sup>th<\/sup> April
