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.,

I do believe in the intention that really count. God is spirit and he sees our spirit. When we intent on something Allah knows it already. As long as the dealing is between us and God direct than it is His nature to forgive. But if there is/are a third party involved than that need to be settled first.

Make Allah as friend in this life, and everything else don't matter. Allah is all there is to it, nothing else exist. We are from Allah and to Allah is the returning.

Salaam.

Say: Shall I choose for a protecting friend other than Allah, the Originator of the heavens and the earth, Who feedeth and is never fed?----------------------(6:14)

Bismillah,

Dear Sister Suzanne,

I asked a reliable source, my husband, what farfar means and he said it doesn't have any religious conotations.  It could be short for a person's name, but that's all.

Peace.

Al-Hamdulillah (From a Married Muslimah) La Howla Wa La Quwata Illa BiLLah - There is no Effort or Power except with Allah's Will.

Wa Alaikum Salam

Maybe the transliteration is incorrect, try pasting the actual Arabic word.

 

�Verily your Lord is quick in punishment; yet He is indeed Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful (Surah Al-An�am 6:165)
"Indeed, we belong to Allah and to Him is our return" (Surah Baqarah 2: 155)
