The Islamic ethos isn't a cancel culture, it's a redemption culture. We sin, repent, rectify, and God gives us another chance.

A redemption culture gives us renewal and the opportunity to be better than we were before. But on a social level, it's not a free pass. (Thread) A redemption culture gives wrongdoers the promise of social restoration, and even elevation, but only after putting the work in.

It requires having remorse and redressing any wrongs. We need Allah to forgive us *and* those we've harmed to forgive us, to be able to move on.
