(135) وَالَّذِينَ إِذَا فَعَلُواْ فَاحِشَةً أَوْ ظَلَمُواْ أَنْفُسَهُمْ ذَكَرُواْ اللّهَ فَاسْتَغْفَرُواْ لِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَمَن يَغْفِرُ
الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ اللّهُ وَلَمْ يُصِرُّواْ عَلَى مَا فَعَلُواْ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ
135. " And those who, when they commit an indecency or do injustice to their selves, remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins - and who forgives the sins except Allah ? - And they (the pious) do not knowingly persist in what they have committed."
Commentary:
When the pious ones do something wrong or do injustice to themselves, they remember Allah and ask for forgiveness from Him for their sins.
It says:
" And those who, when they commit an indecency or do injustice to their selves, remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins - ..."
It is understood from the above verse that whensoever that a person remembers Allah, he does not commit sin. Thus, this forgetfulness and negligence, in the doers of good, does not remain long, and before soon they remember Allah and make up for the past.
"... and who forgives the sins except Allah ?..."
At the end of the verse, to lay emphasis on the subject, it says:
"... And they (the pious) do not knowingly persist in what they have committed."
