I committed zina with a person then repented and married him

First and foremost, never despair in the Mercy of Allah. He forgives all sins as long as you regret them and repent from them.

As for your issue, if you both repented before getting married, then your marriage is valid, if not, then the both of you need to repent, regret what you have done, vow to never do it again and make a new marriage contract.

Keep your sins hidden and never discuss them with anyone. May Allah hide your sins on Judgement Day and protect you from the punishment of the grave.

Also, do as many extra good deeds that you can. Donate to charity, fund a water well to Muslims in less fortunate areas, or contribute to building a masjid. Do anything that will continually give you good deeds.

Here is the fatwa from islamqa: https://islamqa.info/en/answers/9646...riage-is-valid

but soon before engagement we stopped the zina...and yeah during the engagement i would repent... we knew it was wrong... we wanted to do the right thing, it was a self rightous act and that doesnt justify it,

how on earth did i fall in this hole..

this is what happens when you leave marriage late and you cant find a suitor, you fall for someone while no mahram involved and do stupid things in the background... to make them love you ...

its all a fake love i tell you, found the real person in him after marriage... marriage is very hard

You should stop dwelling on the past. It is a technique that the Shaytaan uses to guide you to despair and hopelessness. You are only human, Allah didn't create you to be perfect, accept that and move on from your past mistakes. Allah loves it when we repent from our mistakes and seek His forgiveness and guidance. Remember that Allah loves to forgive and don't doubt His Mercy.

Think of your life's difficulties as an expiation for your sins. Perhaps all the hard times that you go through are happening in order for your sins to be wiped out and replaced with good deeds.

I used to dwell on my past, and sometimes I do wish I could go back and make some changes, but when I really think about it, everything that happened to me in life, no matter how miserable it was (it really was), I realize if it didn't happen, I wouldn't have the Iman that I have now. That's not to say my Iman is perfect, it isn't at all, but it is so much better now than it has ever been. So think of your life as a really rough road that you had to traverse in order to lead you here, seeking guidance.

It isn't clear on what has happened to your marriage, but if you're no longer together, move on and try to dedicate your life to serving Allah. Realize that nothing in this world, relationships or materialistic things, is worth it, for we die only with our deeds. Go do Ghusul, and pray to Allah. Beg Him to guide you and ask shower you with goodness in this world and the hereafter. Beg Him to increase your Iman, to fill your heart with it as if it was a river that is trying to burst out of a mountain. It won't happen overnight, but be consistent and eventually, Inshallah, you will start to see a change. You just have to want it, for Allah guides those who want to be guided.

I don't believe love is fake, I believe love is learned. We fall in lust with others, we don't truly love them until we learn about all of their good qualities. Even with Allah, you know He exists, but you don't really love Him until you learn more about Him and His attributes. Once you learn how much He loves you, and how much Mercy and Goodness He has given you, you start to fall in love with Him. This is why Islam prioritizes the remembrance of Allah. The more you remember Him, the more you love Him and surrender yourself to Him.

then stopped, then our wedding date was fixed, then we waited for marriage, then got married, then it was halal.

Since wedding, I have repented daily, i still do, still remember my sins, finding it hard to wipe

does quran / hadith say anything about being forgiven and being saved from the torment in the barzakh / grave and on yiamul kiyamah?

I will still repent to my last heartbeat but is there a chance i will be saved from being repeatedly burned in the hot pot in the barzakh? (according to hadith describing prophet PBUH's night of miraj journey where he saw various souls / bodies being punished for specific sins, i.e. slander and lies, taking riba, zina / fornication etc)

what are the chances of this sin being revealed to all on day of judgement or even being presented on the scales even if i repent to my last heartbeat?

will myself and him both be held accountable, what if it was my idea, what if it was me who pushed it, will he face the same trial? or moreso more over the other.... or is it equal accountability... as both were sane adults when committing the sin?

pray Allah swt forgives me, I can't stop thiking about it everytime I think of my time in the grave? The barzakh world can be a scary place to stay remanded in until Kiyamah....

Ya Allah.... Asthagfirullah..... wa tu'bu Ilaiyh....

anyone reading this, dont commit zina!

Calm down

The Sun has not yet risen from West, so there's still time for you to make repentance and get your repentance accepted.

But right now, you should do quick beforr Angel of Death comes to you, then Doors of Repetance is closed upon you.

That's one of the tricks of Satan so you'll not repent from committing extramarital sex(zina) and don't listen to him, and just ignore him and mind your bussiness as good Muslim. That's how I do and now I have no waswas and I have no stress, ocz I ignore totally Satan.

Remember that ignoring someone will make that person to feel hurt. Be wiser and intelligent than Satan like myself. Right now I'm planning on making everyone from among mankind and jinnkind to turn against Satan so I can watch and laugh at him how he'll be tortured.

The best prayer which I can recommand you and I think it is authentic is Salatul Taubah. This is the best prayer you can offer it at any time you have committed a major sin or minor sin.

By the way, would you like to know a powerful Supllication which will literally grant you promise that all your past major sins will be forgiven by Allah(SwT)? I know one
