Question:

Asalam'alykum. May Allah Glorified bless you and your family. From the age of 8 problems in life especially from severe bullying and attacks at school made me depressed. In my mid to late teens I drank alcohol, purchased alcohol for myself and non-Muslims and ate pork. In my early twenties I became very sorry for this. I have since repented feeling upset and ashamed and tried to be a good Muslim. I have even become very ill and nearly died. I became malnourished losing muscle as well, which I accepted because I lost from my body the unlawful filth I drank and ate from before. Unfortunately a few years have passed and I am still suffering. I repent everyday but still feel like I am cursed by God and being punished. What more can I do to lift this curse from the alcohol and pork (if there is one) because my daily physical health is bad, I lost my job some years ago and now I'm mentally depressed and I don't think I can carry on. Thanks, Wa'Salam'alaykum.

Answer:

If you have sincerely repented and really decided not to commit such sins again, you need to seek forgiveness and never lose hope in the mercy of Allah (SWT) as He forgives all sins ( except monotheism).
Repeating Istighfaar especially during night time and while you are in Sojood, or during the Qonoot of Salatul Witr which is the last Rak'at of Salatul Layl, is very helpful.
Never doubt the promise of Allah (SWT) to forgive those who sincerely repent and seek forgiveness. In fact, sincere repentance might cause transforming the previous sins into good deeds as we read in Quran.

Question:

Salaam how does one know they have been forgiven after repenting there sins? And upon gaining knowledge and realising what they were doing was a sin they stopped and never repeated that act eversince and repented. What are the signs of forgiveness?

Answer:

We can not say for sure that our previous sins are definitely gone away and
forgiven, so, we need to keep on always sincere repentance and seeking
forgiveness, keeping in our hearts along with fear from our sins the fact
that Allah (SWT) is The Best Forgiver, and The Most Merciful.
