Forgiving Zina: How Can a Man Seek Redemption After Paying a Prostitute?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: If a man did zina with a prostitute by giving her money and no one knows about it. Now the man wants to make tawbah. In what way will he get his forgiveness?

Bismillaah

A: He should sincerely promise Allah that he will never repeat this and he should avoid any type of action that may tempt him to do this sin. For example, taking lustful glances or admiring pictures of women etc.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
