Answer
Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

Make sincere repentance to Allah Ta’ala.

Allaah Ta’ala says : “Say: ‘O My slaves who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins! Despair not of the mercy of Allaah; verily, Allaah forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful’. [39:53].

In another place Allah Ta’ala says, “Ask your Lord for forgiveness and then turn in repentance to Him,” (11:3) and He says, “O you who believe! Turn in sincere repentance to Allah.” (66:8)
