Having hope in the forgiveness of Allah Ta'ala
Question
Is there any way to know if Allah Ta'ala has forgiven you for good? Meaning, no matter what happens to your life, you will enter Jannah.
Answer
After one has sincerely begged for Allah's forgiveness one needs to have that hope in Allah that he is forgiven. And death upon imaan is a guarantee to Jannah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

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