It is only Allah who can forgive our sins and He is not in need of any intercessor. The proof for this is in a Du’a (supplication) which the Prophet Muhammad Salla-Allahu ‘Alayhi wa Sallam taught his companion Abu Bakr Siddique (Radi Allahu Anhu): “O Allah, truly I have wronged myself and none can forgive sins except you.” Muslim should never to despair of Allah’s mercy – no sin is too great to repent… or too little for that matter. As one of the Salaf (Pious predecessors) said: “Do not look at the insignificance of your sins, but consider the greatness of The One you are disobeying.” Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta ‘ala) says: Say: “O ‘Ibâdî (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allâh, verily Allâh forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. Az-Zumar 39:53
