Imagine you wake up on a not far removed from society. You've never met anyone from anything. You've never met a Hindu or a Buddhist, it towers they say, as a Jew or a Christian, but you believe in God. You could see God through the creation that is around you, through the ocean, through the mountains, and the birds that are floating in the sky, seemingly effortlessly, and you commit a sin against yourself. But you pray out to this almighty creator and you ask for his forgiveness. And to the best of your capacity, you do not commit the sin again. Do you believe the best Almighty Creator will show you mercy, forgiveness and love?
Of course you would. Because the almighty creator, his most merciful, and He is most forgiving. We understand this.
We have this connection with the Creator, that we can turn to Him for forgiveness. But in this understand that there is no sacrifice, other than the sacrifice that comes from within our soul.
There's a beautiful verse within the Quran, that reflects in chapter 3953, where it says, Those who have transgressed against themselves by summing need not despair for the mercy of God. Indeed, God forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
If you want to learn more about the concept of forgiveness and salvation within the Abrahamic faiths, please stay tuned for a two part series on the concept of salvation. In the first part, we will be looking at the concept of inheritance of sin. And in the second part, we will be looking at forgiveness without the shedding of blood. All the best of Blessings to you and our loved ones.
