Understanding Guilt and Shame The Quran addresses the difference between guilt and shame, where guilt is recognizing a wrong action with empathy, while shame involves accepting oneself as worthless. The story of Musa (AS) illustrates this distinction.
Confronting Past Mistakes Musa (AS) acknowledges his mistake without denying it or blaming others. He takes responsibility for his actions despite being labeled by Pharaoh as a criminal, showing that past mistakes do not define one's worth.
No Room for Shaming in Religion Islam rejects shaming individuals based on their past actions. Allah honors those who repent and turn to Him regardless of their previous wrongdoings, emphasizing the importance of self-worth beyond societal judgment.
