Assalamu alaikum. I have a question regarding Taubah (repentance)
Recently, i have been sinning a lot and ive been wanting to do taubah. The thing is, im not sure if my taubah will be accepted. I have heard that if you have rancour, (which is to have feelings of hatred to something someone did a long time ago),
Your taubah wont be accepted. Is this true?
Now my second question is.. If that is true, im not sure if my taubah will be accepted. When a person does something bad, even if its not to me, ill think of them as a bad person. Sometimes, i may think of a sin someone did to me and ill think to myself, '' why would they do that? '' then ill snap back and ill force myself to think good of them and not have bad feelings.. I just cant control my rancour. Please help me! How do i control it? How do i stop having this mindset?

Wa Alaikumus Salam Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh,
Firstly - you feel you've done wrong? No problem!
What has Allah azza wajal said about this in the Quran? Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful." (Surah Az-Zumar Verse 53)
So what do we learn from this ayat? No matter what we've done.....Don't Despair. Seek forgiveness and start fresh.
Secondly - Do you know the power of Dua? Dua is a weapon of a believer! The best thing to do is seek the Forgiveness of Allah azza wajal - how?
Pronunciation: Astagh-fi-rulla-hal Azeem, al-lazi la ilaha il-la Huwal-Hay-yul-Qayyum wa aa-tubu i-laih
Meaning: I seek the forgiveness of Allah the Mighty, Whom there is none worthy of worship except Him, The Living, The Eternal, and I repent unto Him
