Q: I am a student of Islamic university and I am on my hunt for a serious question. We discussed it with our fellows and class mates but could not find any solutions. The only thing we came up to is that person should die or his matter should be left to Allah. If a boy that is not baaligh has committed zina with his sister not knowing what he is doing he just done it (like he didn't know the punishment or exactly the relation with his sister) then when he grew up he realized what he has done and is ashamed and asks Allah for forgiveness, is their any way he could get free from his dirty sin that he has committed in his childhood? The boy has actually realized and the sin is killing him from inside. Is their any type of kafara or something in our religion that could be done by him to get freedom from his sin?
