In
the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, The Merciful
The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan Gives us The
Eight Steps of Atonement
Point out the wrong - the first stage is the most difficultof all because when we are wrong and we are not aware of it, someone has
to point out the wrong.
Acknowledge the wrong - So in this context, the word acknowledge means to the truth of the fact that we have
been wrong.
Confess fault - First you confess the fault to Allah
(God), and then to the person or persons whom your fault has ill effected.
Repentance - means feeling contrition or self- reproach
for what one has done or failed to do.
Atonement - means we must be willing to do something
in expiation of our sins.
Forgiveness - means to cease to feel offense and resentment
against another for the harm done by an offender. It means to wipe the slate
clean.
Reconciliation and restoration - It mean to resolve differences
and to establish or re-establish a close relationship between previously
divided persons.
Perfect union with God - the result of completing the
atonement process is achieving the perfect union with Allah (God) who is
best at guiding us to freedom.
