Harun Yahya 63

66. After I start living Islam, will I be
responsible before Allah for the sins I have
committed in my past life?

Before he is warned, a person would be considered igno-
rant about religion, with no knowledge of what is right or
wrong. Therefore, if he repents and does not revert to the
same sins and mistakes and seeks forgiveness from Allah, he
will not be held responsible for his sinful past. What is impor-
tant in Allah’s Sight is not to try to justify any mistakes or sins.
Allah has given the believers this good news:
As for those who believe and do good deeds, We will
cleanse them of their sins, and recompense them for the
best of their deeds. (Surat al-‘Ankabut: 7)

67. Is it necessary to explain the morals of
Islam to others?
Allah holds it the responsibility of all people to live the
religion of Islam. Everyone who is aware of the existence of
the religion will be asked in the hereafter whether he has abid-
ed by the Qur’an or not. Therefore, those who live Allah’s reli-
gion must convey the good morals laid down in the Qur’an to
other people, inviting them to the righteous way, urging them
to do right and forbidding them to do wrong. In the Qur’an,
Allah gave the following commandment:
Let there be a community among you who call to the
good, and enjoin the right, and forbid the wrong. They
are the ones who achieve success. (Surat Al ‘Imran: 104)
