إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ تَابُوا۟ وَأَصْلَحُوا۟ وَٱعْتَصَمُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَأَخْلَصُوا۟ دِينَهُمْ لِلَّهِ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ مَعَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۖ وَسَوْفَ يُؤْتِ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا ﴿146﴾

Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

Except those who repent (from hypocrisy), do righteous good deeds, hold fast to Allâh, and purify their religion for Allâh (by worshipping none but Allâh, and do good for Allâh’s sake only, not to show off), then they will be with the believers. And Allâh will grant the believers a great reward.

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan.

(Ayah 146) {اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ تَابُوْا وَ اَصْلَحُوْا … :} For the salvation of those hypocrites who have been condemned above, four exceptions have been mentioned: First, that they feel remorse for their previous behavior; second, that they completely reform themselves for the future; third, that they hold firmly to the rope of Allah; fourth, that whatever work they do for the religion, they do it solely to attain the pleasure of Allah. (Ahsan al-Tafasir) All these four actions will be carried out step by step and in the order established among them.

146. Except for those who repent, reform themselves, hold fast to Allah, and make their religion sincere [194] for Allah alone—such will be with the believers. And Allah will soon grant the believers a great reward.

[194] That is, those hypocrites who repented and corrected their deeds, then firmly adhered to the religion of Islam, and devoted their sympathies and loyalties solely to strengthening the religion of Allah, and developed these four qualities within themselves, they will be saved from this punishment of the Hereafter. Allah Almighty will forgive their previous sins and include them among the group of believers, and whatever worldly or otherworldly benefits the believers receive, they will also receive.
