      Q: If one has made gheebat or slandered someone without their knowledge, is it necessary to tell them about it and seek their forgiveness or can one just ask forgiveness from Allah?

A: If they don't know about it then seeking forgiveness from Allah Ta`ala is sufficient.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
