Translation: Those who believe and work righteous deeds,- from
them shall We blot out all evil (that may be) in
them, 3429 and We shall reward them according to
the best of their deeds.
Commentary:
3429 In striving to purify our Faith and Life, we are enabled to avoid the
consequences of our misdeeds for Allah will forgive any evil in our past, purify
any tendencies towards evil which we may have inherited from that past, and
help to the attainment of a Future based on the best of what we have done rather
than on the poor average of our own merits. The atonement or expiation is by
Allah's Mercy, not by our merits or the merits or sacrifices of anyone else (Cf.
46:16). (R).
