Allah’s forgiveness

The Qur’an teaches that Allah is a Judge and He also punishes, but Allah is not bound to punish.

The justice of Allah, according to the Qur’an, is that Allah does not and will not inflict undue punishment on any person. He will not ignore the good of any person. But if He wishes to forgive any sinner, He has full freedom to do that. His mercy is unlimited and His love is infinite.

There are many verses in the Qur’an and the sayings of the Prophet (PBUH) on the love, mercy and forgiveness of Allah.

In one of the prayers that the Prophet (PBUH) taught, he said, “O Allah, You are the Most Forgiving One, You love to forgive, so forgive me.” (Reported by al-Trimidhi and Ibn Majah).

We need Allah’s mercy and forgiveness all the time. It is wrong to assume at any time that one will find eternal salvation without the forgiveness of Allah.
