Adultery is among the most heinous sins, but Allah accepts repentance no matter how great the sin. True repentance involves abandoning the sin, regretting it, and resolving never to return to it, while concealing one's fault and not openly proclaiming it. Whoever repents with a true repentance should rejoice in Allah's pardon and forgiveness, harbor good thoughts of their Lord, and strive in righteous deeds.
