Assalam-o-Alaikum,

If some unmarried muslim man has done oral sex, fingering and took a bath with a non muslim girl but did not do the actual sex, does he deserve the same punishment as for zina ?

He greatly remorse his actions and asks for tauba from Allah but still his conscience feels the guilt, what should he do ? Can he be forgiven by Allah or he must receive the punishment in this world to be forgiven in the hereafter ?


Bismillaah-ir-Rahmaan-ir-Raheem.

Wa 'Alaykum-us-Salaam wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuh.

Al Jawaab Billahit-Tawfeeq:

Remorse over one's sins in itself is a very great bounty from Allaah. It is a sign that Allaah wants you to turn to Him. He should continue to make tawbah and not be despondent of the immense Mercy of Allah. May Allaah Almighty forgive all our sins and may He farther favour us by also turning them into good deeds. Ameen.
