The Holy Quran 2:160 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ تَابُوا۟ وَأَصْلَحُوا۟ وَبَيَّنُوا۟ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ أَتُوبُ عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ وَأَنَا ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

Translation

(This applies to all such people) Except those who repent, correct (the wrong they did) and clarify (what they hid). These are the ones whom I will forgive, for verily I am The Greatest Acceptor of repentance, The Most Merciful.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
