Islamic tradition teaches that human beings have some degree of free will or control over their choices. As such, we may succumb to temptation and make mistakes when we neglect the duties and ethics toward which our consciences are naturally inclined. Before our free will ceases at the time of death, humans can repent and seek forgiveness for sins. Complete repentance must include which of the following requirements?
Confess the sin and ask for forgiveness from God, cease doing the wrong action, set an intention to do what is right, try to counteract or repair the negative outcomes of the wrong action if possible.
Confess the sin and ask for forgiveness from God, ask forgiveness of others who have been harmed, and donate alms to the poor.
Cleanse the body and mind of the impurities that led to the sin, bow down and pray for forgiveness, do not repeat the mistake, and tell all neighbors and friends about what mistakes you have done.
Read the Qur'an, resolve not to sin again, resolve to do right in the future, prevent other people from making the same mistake as you have.
