The Benefit and Conditions of Repentance:
In the previous verse, those people were mentioned who repent from disbelief and enter the fold of Islam. In this verse, those Muslims are mentioned who commit sins and then repent. The conditions for the acceptance of repentance are that one must truly feel remorse for what has been done. Then, one should seek forgiveness from Allah. After repentance and seeking forgiveness, one should reform oneself, and at the very least, not commit again the sin from which one has repented. Now, after repentance and seeking forgiveness, the more one reforms oneself and performs righteous deeds, the closer one will become to Allah.
