You don't need to confess your sins to anyone besides your Maker. Don't let a sinful human being just like yourself convince you that you need to tell him in order to attain the forgiveness of your Maker.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى يَقْبَلُ ٱلتَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِۧ وَيَعْفُوا عَنِ ٱلسَّيِّئَاتِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ And it is He (Allaah) who accepts repentance from his servants and pardons misdeeds, and He knows what you do. 》Ash-shura 42:25
By Allah, the best thing for a person is to live his life till death in a state of contentment and satisfaction with Allah. Indeed, the believer won't experience true eeman until he lives life in a state of contentment with Allah. Of course, we are pleased with Allah, at all times, but we can specify a few. The situations during which the believer should be pleased with Allah are three:
The first situation is when he is given a nemah (grace) from Allah. So if a slave receives a nemah from Allah how can he not have a complete sense of satisfaction in his heart, this is one situation.
The second situation - and this is greater than the first - a person is content with Allah when He gave him tawfeeq to do an act of obedience. The more he is given tawfeeq from Allah, the more he is pleased with Allah, because he ponders and realizes that when he is given tawfeeq it means that Allah loves him. May Allah love us all. Aameen.
The third situation - and this is the highest - is when Allah protects you and comes between you and a sin you were about to commit, and He saved you from it. I swear that Allah will never protect a person from a sin, a sin that he can do, and is planning to do, except that he honours him.
وَلَقَدْ هَمَّتْ بِهِ ۖ وَهَمَّ بِهَا لَوْلَا أَن رَّأَىٰ بُرْهَانَ رَبِّهِ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ لِنَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ السُّوءَ وَالْفَحْشَاءَ ۚ إِنَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُخْلَصِينَ - 12:24 And she certainly determined [to seduce] him, and he would have inclined to her had he not seen the proof of his Lord. And thus [it was] that We should avert from him evil and immorality. Indeed, he was of Our chosen servants.
وَلَقَدْ هَمَّتْ بِهِ ۖ وَهَمَّ بِهَا لَوْلَا أَن رَّأَىٰ بُرْهَانَ رَبِّهِ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ لِنَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ السُّوءَ وَالْفَحْشَاءَ ۚ إِنَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُخْلَصِينَ - 12:24 And she certainly determined [to seduce] him, and he would have inclined to her had he not seen the proof of his Lord. And thus [it was] that We should avert from him evil and immorality. Indeed, he was of Our chosen servants.
These statuses, Allah gives them to those whom He chooses of His slaves. And be certain that whenever Allah protects you from a sin, and you were grateful to Him, He will protect you from a greater sin. Until He prepares you to enter jannah. To purify you, your body and your soul.
One of the greatest karamat from Allah, is that He becomes your protector in what is manifest and what is hidden.
وَهُوَ الَّذِي يُنَزِّلُ الْغَيْثَ مِن بَعْدِ مَا قَنَطُوا وَيَنشُرُ رَحْمَتَهُ ۚ وَهُوَ الْوَلِيُّ الْحَمِيدُ - 42:28 And it is He who sends down the rain after they had despaired and spreads His mercy. And He is the Protector, the Praiseworthy.
This ayah has a great meaning, that Allah never lets down those who are under His protection.
The father does not fail to take care of his children. And the teacher does not lead his students astray. And the mother never fails to protect her kids. Then what about Rabbil izzati wal jalal, the Lord of dignity and honour?
Allah never fails to protect those who are in His protection. So the greatest thing a slave can look forward to having is Allah's protection.
Pray at night as much as you are able. When you are standing before the Hands of Allah, الْوَلِيُّ الْحَمِيدُ, the Protector, the Praiseworthy, say, with complete understanding of the meaning, وَتَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ Protect me among those whom You have protected
I ask you, how can anything harm you when you are in the protection of Allah? It is impossible!
