Confession of sins is made directly to God and not through man (except in asking for forgiveness from the victim of the sin). It is taught that sins are to be kept to oneself to seek individual forgiveness from God. God forgives those who seek his forgiveness and commit to themselves not to repeat the sin, although some sins in which another person is victimized are not forgiven unless that person forgives you, so they should also be asked for forgiveness.<ref>[http://qa.sunnipath.com/issue_view.asp?HD=12&ID=4928&CATE=10 qa.sunnipath.com]</ref><ref name="Sahih Muslim, Book 37, Tradition 6658">[http://hadithcollection.com/sahihmuslim/165-Sahih%20Muslim%20Book%2037.%20Repentance%20And%20Exhortation%20Of%20Repentance/14849-sahih-muslim-book-037-hadith-number-6658.html hadithcollection.com]</ref>
{{Main|Pengakuan dosa (Yudaisme)}}
 
Dalam [[Yudaisme]], pengakuan merupakan suatu bagian penting untuk memperoleh pengampunan atas dosa-dosa terhadap Allah maupun terhadap orang lain. Pengakuan kepada Allah dilakukan secara komunal dengan perkataan dalam bentuk jamak. Umat Yahudi mengaku dengan mengatakan: "''Kami'' telah berdosa." Dalam hal-hal yang melibatkan pelanggaran terhadap sesama manusia, pengakuan pribadi kepada korban merupakan persyaratan untuk memperoleh pengampunan dari korban, yang umumnya merupakan persyaratan untuk memperoleh pengampunan dari Allah. Apabila korban menolak untuk memaafkan, pelanggar melakukan pengakuan publik secara terbuka, di hadapan hadirin yang lebih banyak. Pengakuan (''Widduy, Viddui'') juga dilakukan ketika seseorang terbaring di ranjang kematiannya, apabila memungkinkan.
==Judaism==
{{Main|Confession in Judaism}}
In [[Judaism]], confession is an important part of attaining forgiveness for both sins against God and another man. Confessions to God are done communally in the plural. Jews confess that "''We'' have sinned." In matters involving offenses against a fellow man, private confession to the victim is a requirement to obtaining forgiveness from the victim, which is generally a requirement to obtaining forgiveness from God. If the victim refuses to forgive, the offender confesses publicly, before larger and larger audience. Confession (viduy) is also performed on one's deathbed, if at all possible.
