Taubah and Repentance

Repenting after earning haraam livelihood

Q: If a man who has earned his living through illicit ways not permitted in Islam as recorded in the renowned personals, including but not limited to accepting and soliciting bribes, misappropriation of public fund etc. during his entire period of service repents sincerely after he retires from Govt. service, would he be accepted by Allah, especially if he uses his ill gotten gains to sustain himself and perform all necessaries afterwards? Does the same logic apply to robbery and trickery, money lending with interest, sale of narcotics, etc.? Is wealth amassed in such a way even if one turns over a new leaf?

Committing zina with one's autistic brother

Q: When my friend was 10 and 13 she tried committing zina with her autistic brother. She believes that at the time she didn't know what this action was. Her brother has been tested to have no sexual fantasies. She believes that the penis did not penetrate the vagina, which means this is not intercourse. She has repented and 100% knows she won't do it again. She still feels guilty, does she have to leave home, where would she go? She doesn't want to reveal this to her family. 

Giving up sin

Q: If a person commits a big scene and asked for forgiveness from Allah by reading two rakats of salat of tauba and again he committed the same sin and again had read the namaz and seeked forgiveness from Allah for the same sin and promised the same that he/she will not commit that sin again, and again if he does the same sin then how should he overcome this habit?

Repenting for one's past sins

Q: I have a personally sensitive issue. When I was a teenager, I engaged in inappropriate sexual touching with a few girls one of whom was my cousin while she was sleeping. Now that I'm an adult and a bit wiser, I feel terribly guilty. I have apologized to my cousin but without telling her what I did. How can I find peace?
