Question

I took something from a non-Jew's store and forgot to pay, do I need to return and pay?

Answer

If the initial intention was to take without paying, one must return and pay. However, if the initial intention was to pay and one forgot, they are exempt from paying, provided there is no concern of desecrating the name.
