Q: I do pray obligatory prayers and two rakaats of nafl in the end of each obligatory prayer every single day. How else should I make tawba? Please guide me with more ways to repent to Allah Ta’ala and what are the duas asked for forgiveness from Allah Ta’ala.
A: One who makes taubah sincerely, his taubah is definitely accepted. Taubah has three basic elements: (1) To discharge all past obligations, be it to Allah or to people. (2) To resolve never to commit those sins again. (3) To express remorse for the wrongs that have been committed.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
