Seeking forgiveness from God

Seeking forgiveness from God for committing evil deeds is highly mentioned in the Koran:

 

1. Those who remember God and seek forgiveness for their offences when they commit some shocking deed or ham themselves for who forgives offences besides God? (3:135)
2. Whenever they (Hypocrites) are told: “Come, Gods messenger will seek forgiveness for you “they twist their head around and you will see them trying to slip away, while they act so haughty. (63:5)
3. The heedful will be in gardens and by springs partaking of whatever their Lord has given them. They had acted kindly even before that, they used to slumber only a portion of the night while in vigils towards dawning they sought forgiveness. The beggar and the destitute had some right to their wealth.(51:15-19)
4. Then hymn your Lords praise and by Him for forgiveness, since he is so Relenting!(110:3)
5. So that you will serve only God [Alone]: “I am a Warner, a head from him to you, and so you will seek forgiveness from your Lord, then turn towards to him [in repentance]. He will let you enjoy a handsome allotment for a specific period, and grant his bounty .If you should turn away. Then I fear the torment of a great day for you.( 11:2-3)
6. If they (people) had come to you and sought forgiveness from God whenever they harmed themselves, and the Messenger had prayed for forgiveness them, they would have found that God is Ever –Turning Merciful.(4:64)
