Is Confessing Past Sins to Your Spouse Necessary in Islam?
Question
Di i have to declare past sins to spouse before we go to hajj
Islamic Ruling & Answer
No. If you have sincerely repented, you are not required to disclose past sins to your spouse. In Islam, hidden sins should not be exposed without a genuine need. Before Hajj, what matters is sincere repentance, fulfilling peopleâs rights, and purifying the heart.
