Tafseer-e-Usmani - Al-An'aam : 54
وَ اِذَا جَآءَكَ الَّذِیْنَ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِاٰیٰتِنَا فَقُلْ سَلٰمٌ عَلَیْكُمْ كَتَبَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلٰى نَفْسِهِ الرَّحْمَةَ١ۙ اَنَّهٗ مَنْ عَمِلَ مِنْكُمْ سُوْٓءًۢا بِجَهَالَةٍ ثُمَّ تَابَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ وَ اَصْلَحَ فَاَنَّهٗ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِیْمٌ
وَاِذَا : اور جب جَآءَكَ : آپ کے پاس آئیں الَّذِيْنَ : وہ لوگ يُؤْمِنُوْنَ : ایمان رکھتے ہیں بِاٰيٰتِنَا : ہماری آیتیں فَقُلْ : تو کہ دیں سَلٰمٌ : سلام عَلَيْكُمْ : تم پر كَتَبَ : لکھ لی رَبُّكُمْ : تمہارا رب عَلٰي : پر نَفْسِهِ : اپنی ذات الرَّحْمَةَ : رحمت اَنَّهٗ : کہ مَنْ : جو عَمِلَ : کرے مِنْكُمْ : تم سے سُوْٓءًۢا : کوئی برائی بِجَهَالَةٍ : نادانی سے ثُمَّ : پھر تَابَ : توبہ کرے مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ : اس کے بعد وَاَصْلَحَ : اور نیک ہوجائے فَاَنَّهٗ : تو بیشک اللہ غَفُوْرٌ : بخشنے والا رَّحِيْمٌ : مہربان
And when those who believe in Our signs come to you, say to them: 'Peace be upon you. Your Lord has made mercy incumbent upon Himself so that if anyone of you does a bad deed out of ignorance and thereafter repents and makes amends, surely you will find Him All-Forgiving, AllCompassionate.' 37
37. Several of those who came to believe in the Prophet (peace be on him) had committed many serious sins before they embraced Islam. Even though their lives had altogether changed following their conversion, the opposition continued to play up the weaknesses and misdeeds of their past life. The Prophet (peace he on him) is asked to comfort such persons and to tell them that God does not punish those who sincerely repent their sins and mend their ways.
