Assalamu Alaikum!

Sister Suzanne, could you please use another term instead of "Farfar". That would, hopefully, make the question clear to me.

Peace

Salem, Salem (I was in a hurry and did not put, as I know I should always put grettings)

Well, I am not for sure how else to ask. But, I will try. I was told if I ask for forgiveness, really repent to ALLAH swt that I would be as "farfar". So, I have never heared this farfar before and wanted a better explanation. Thanks.,

Bismillah,

I read the link, but I didn't see what farfar means  in it.

Assalamu Alaikum!

I am not able to locate the term "farfar" either. However, her concern in the following sentence implied to me that it was somehow linked to "asking for forgiveness and repenting to Allah".

(Suzanne ) "I was told if I ask for forgiveness, really repent to ALLAH swt that I would be as "farfar"."

If the above link doesn't help, somebodyelse might help her or she should ask a scholar.

Peace

It is better to be alone than to be in bad company.
