No inherited sin… no burden you did not choose

How often have you felt that you carry the consequences of mistakes you did not make?

A family’s mistake.

01

A society’s mistake.

02

A historical mistake.

03

Some belief systems see humans as born carrying a previous sin.

But Islam establishes a completely different principle:

(And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another) [FATER 18]

No soul bears the burden of another.

This is a foundational belief.

You are not held accountable for Adam’s mistake.

Nor your mother’s.

Nor your society’s.

(Every person, for what he earned, is retained.) AṬ-ṬŪR -21

Every person is accountable for their own actions.

This meaning frees you from a deep psychological burden.

You begin from a clean page.

And the door is always open.

(Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning]) AZ-ZUMAR -53

The woman in Islam is not a “historical stigma.”

She is a servant capable of repentance and growth.
