ANSWER:

This is not sinful or kufr but a true believer doesn’t feel safe until he puts his first foot in paradise. He has a balance between the hope in Allah’s forgiveness and the fear of His wrath.

QUESTION: If a person commits a major sin and repents, thinking Allah will forgive him, but continues repenting until his heart feels at ease, only then believing Allah has forgiven him, this is not sinful nor kufr. Allah forgives immediately when one sincerely asks, but seeking forgiveness repeatedly for reassurance is permissible and encouraged?
