Tawbah (Repentence) Tawbah basically denotes `to come back; to turn towards someone.` Tawbah on the part of man signifies that he has given up his disobedience and has returned to submission and obedience to God. The same word used in respect of God means that He has mercifully turned to His repentant servant so that the latter has once more become an object of His compassionate attention.
Tawbah Literally, returning. Repenting and seeking forgiveness for one`s sins in order to return as close as possible to one`s originally good and unsullied state
