Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, is His slave and Messenger.
It is indeed a great calamity that evil comes from someone whom we usually feel safe from his evil, so how does an uncle dare to do these evil matters with the daughter of his brother/sister especially that she is a young girl and it is expected that he would discipline her and guide her instead of him abusing her like a wolf? There is no might nor power except with Allaah!
In any case, we advise this sister to take it easy as she is not held accountable for these evil acts that took place with her uncle as she did so before the age of puberty. Even if she did them out of her own free will, she will not be held accountable for her acts as at that time she was under the age of Takleef )accountability(. For more benefit, please refer to Fatwa 92178.
Therefore, she should completely refrain from thinking about these unfortunate events and not let the devil make her feel bad or make her life miserable. Moreover, she should not inform anybody about this, neither her parents nor anyone else.
However, she must repent from the illicit relations which she established with some young people after she had reached puberty, and she should regret what she did and think good of Allaah. Indeed, whoever repents, Allaah will accept his repentance. Also, she should be careful not to despair of the mercy of Allaah as this is a great sin. Allaah Says )what means(: }Indeed, no one despairs of relief from Allaah except the disbelieving people.{]Quran 12:87[
For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa 86527and 88529.
Finally, we advise this sister to preoccupy her time with what benefits her religion and her worldly life and to keep company with her pious Muslim sisters so that she would forget the past because whoever repents from sin is like the one who has never committed a sin.
Allaah Knows best.
