commited masturbation and during that state i removed my topee in my mind came the thought that i'm not muslim.
Question
Will i be forgiven? I repent everyday. i aslo read my salah. Very worried. Please email me at the above address
Answer
Make sincere Taubah for the sin of masturbation. Allah Ta?ala is most forgiving, and will forgive your sins.
The idea of not being a Muslim is just a stray thought. Do not pay attention to it. There is no need to worry. If such a though comes to the mind, recite ?La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah?, and forget about this idea.
Continue with good actions and abstain from all forms of sin.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
