(2) Not only will his evil deeds done in the past be written off, but it will also be recorded in his conduct register that he was the servant who gave up rebellion against his Lord and adopted the way of His obedience. Then, as he will feel more and more sorry for his past sins and offer repentance, more and more good deeds will be credited to him. For repenting of one’s wrong doing and seeking forgiveness is in itself a good deed. Thus, good deeds will supersede all his evil deeds in his conduct register, and he will not only escape punishment in the Hereafter but, in addition, he will also be blessed with high favors by Allah. - [2] That is, ultimately everyone has to return to Allah for Allah alone is man’s last and real refuge. He alone can reward him for his good deeds or punish him for his evil deeds. He alone is All-Merciful and All Compassionate, Who receives the penitent with forgiveness and Who does not rebuke him for his past errors provided that he has repented sincerely, and adopted the right attitude and reformed himself. ### Abdel Khalek Himmat — Al- Muntakhab For, he who repents and views his past actions with dissatisfaction and regret and imprints his deeds with wisdom and piety will have in lowliest plight repentant stood and will have turned faithfully to Allah. ### Bijan Moeinian Whoever repents and does good deeds, he is sincere in his repentance to God. ### Al-Hilali & Khan And whosoever repents and does righteous good deeds; then verily, he repents towards Allâh with true repentance. ### Abdullah Yusuf Ali And whoever repents and does good has truly turned to Allah with an (acceptable) conversion;- ### Mustafa Khattab — The Clear Quran And whoever repents and does good has truly turned to Allah properly. ### Taqi Usmani Whoever repents and does righteous deeds turns to Allah truly ### Abdul Haleem People who repent and do good deeds truly return to God.) ### Arthur John Arberry and whosoever repents, and does righteousness, he truly turns to God in repentance. ### E.
