“When the first night of Ramadan comes, the satans
and mischievous jinns are chained up, and the gates of
the Fire are closed, and none of its gates are opened.
The gates of Paradise are opened and none of its gates
are closed. And a caller cried out: ‘O seeker of good,
proceed, O seeker of evil, stop.’ And Allah has necks
(people) whom He frees (from the Fire), and that
happens every day.”
(Hadith reported by Ibnu Majah)

TAU-BAH *
(REPENTANCE)
* Literally – “return; retreat; come back to. etc.”
KEY TO SEEKING NEARNESS

TADZKIRAHTADZKIRAH

TADZKIRAHTADZKIRAH
“O you who have believed, (TUU-BUU – ILALLAAH) repent to
Allah with (TAUBATAN –NA-SUU-HAH) sincere repentance.
Perhaps your Lord will remove from you your misdeeds and
admit you into gardens beneath which rivers flow [on] the
Day when Allah will not disgrace the Prophet and those who
believed with him. Their light will proceed before them and
on their right; they will say, "Our Lord, perfect for us our
light and forgive us. Indeed, You are over all things
competent.“
(Qur’an: Tahrim: 66: 8)

TADZKIRAHTADZKIRAH
“Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against
themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of
Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who
is the Forgiving, the Merciful."
(Qur’an: Zumar : 39: 53)

TADZKIRAHTADZKIRAH
“ And return [in repentance] to your Lord and submit to
Him (AS-LIMUU-LAHU) before the punishment comes upon
you; then you will not be helped. And follow the best of
what was revealed to you from your Lord before the
punishment comes upon you suddenly while you do not
perceive, Lest a soul should say, "Oh [how great is] my
regret over what I neglected in regard to Allah and that I
was among the mockers."
(Qur’an: Zumar : 39: 54-56)

TADZKIRAHTADZKIRAH
“ And those who do not invoke with Allah another
deity or kill the soul which Allah has forbidden [to be
killed], except by right, and do not commit unlawful
sexual intercourse. And whoever should do that will
meet a penalty. Multiplied for him is the punishment
on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein
humiliated - .."
(Qur’an: Furqan : 25: 68)

TADZKIRAHTADZKIRAH
“ … Except for those who repent (MAN-TAA-BA),
believe (AA-MANA) and do righteous work (‘AMALA –
SWO-LIHA). For them Allah will replace their evil deeds
with good. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.
And he who repents and does righteousness does
indeed turn to Allah with [accepted] repentance."
(Qur’an: Furqan : 25: 69-71)

““If you were to commit sin until your sins reach
the heaven, then you were to repent, your
repentance would be accepted””
((Hadith reported by Ibn MajahHadith reported by Ibn Majah))

““Every son of Adam commits sin, and the best of
those who commit sin are those who repent.””

““Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, extends out His Hand
(Mercy) during the night so that the people may repent for
the fault committed from dawn till dusk and He extends
out His Hand (Mercy) during the day so that the people
may repent for the fault committed from dusk to dawn.
(He would accept repentance) before the sun rises in the
west (before the Day of Resurrection).””
((Hadith reported by MuslimHadith reported by Muslim))

There are five (5) conditions needed for a ‘Sincere repentance’ to be
accepted, which are:
1.SINCERITY TO ALLAH, the Most High:
This is by the person doing it only for the sake of Allah and seeking His
reward and salvation from His punishment.
2.REMORSE: for the sin that was committed, such that he is sad he did
it and wishes he had never done it.

3.CEASING (stop): to commit the sin immediately.
If the sin was against Allah, then he should
a) stop doing it if it was an unlawful act (HARAM), or
b) hasten to do it if it was an obligation (WAJIB-FARDH) that he
or she had abandoned doing.
c) And if the sin was against a created being (such as towards
other humans), then he should hasten to free himself from it,
whether by returning it back to him (making reparation) or
seeking his forgiveness and pardon.

4.DETERMINATION: make strong resolve not go back to doing that sin
again in the future.
5.BEFORE DEATH THROES: The repentance should not occur before
the time when its acceptance is terminated, either by death throes
(sakaraatul-mawt) or by the occurrence of the major sign of
Qiyyamah i.e. of the sun rising from the west.
