Fatwa #1114415 March 2004United Kingdom

I have known a girl for 3 years, and have asked her to marry me, and advised her i will go to her parents, but she seems reluctant.

Question

Now i have cut all relations with her and made taubah. I would like to know, whether i Have to ask her for any forgiveness, for having this unlawful relationship,or is this not necessary, will my taubah be accpted by allah swt if i just ask forgiveness sincerely.?

Answer

We commend you for your commitment in following Shari?ah.

It is not necessary for you to ask the girl for forgiveness. Turn your gaze to Allah and beg for His forgiveness. Indeed, Allah is most forgiving to His servants.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
