Allah the Exalted says

“The Forgiver of sin, the Accepter of repentance, the Stern in punishment, the Bountiful. There is no Allah save Him. Unto Him is the journeying.” (40:3)

Repentance is the abandonment of sin in the most beautiful manner.

For apology takes three forms:

Either the one apologizing says, "I did not do it,"
0:26
Or he says, "I did it for such-and-such a reason,"

Or he says, "I did it and I acted wrongly,"
0:32
"And I have erred."

This last one is true repentance.
