Repentance for Stealing
Question
what is the halachic requirements to do teshuva for stealing if the owner has given full mechila?
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
It is wonderful that the owner of the stolen item has forgiven you.
Now your job is to ask forgiveness from G-d for violating His Torah. Anyone who confesses and regrets their sins and commits not to do such things again will be forgiven for all the wrong they have done.
Our G-d is a loving and merciful G-d who wants a relationship with all of us.
