Manifesting Forgiveness in The New Year

Alḥamdulillāh, we have been blessed by Allāh to witness yet again another dawn of a New Year; another opportunity for seeking forgiveness, of focusing on pursuing taqwā, a year of increased generosity, of controlling our negative urges and emotions; and of heightening our capacity to improve ourselves. All of these pursuits for excellence are captured in a verse of the Qur’ān.
