سُوْرَةُ الْعَنْكَبُوْتِ
Surah Al-Ankaboot (29) — Ayah 7
وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَنُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنْهُمْ سَيِّـَٔاتِهِمْ وَلَنَجْزِيَنَّهُمْ أَحْسَنَ ٱلَّذِى كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ ﴿7﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
Those who believe [in the Oneness of Allâh (Monotheism) and in Messenger Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم , and do not give up their faith because of the harm they receive from the polytheists], and do righteous good deeds, surely, We shall expiate from them their evil deeds and shall reward them according to the best of that which they used to do.

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani
Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
And those who believe and do righteous deeds, We will surely remove their evil deeds [8] and will reward them with better than what they used to do [9].

Different Forms of Good Deeds Erasing Sins:
There are three forms of this. First, when a person embraces Islam, his previous sins are forgiven. Similarly, by performing good deeds, minor sins are forgiven. Second, when a person starts performing good deeds, he naturally develops an aversion to sins. Third, when good deeds become prevalent in a society, sins automatically begin to disappear, because the two are opposites of each other. When one comes, the other inevitably has to leave. The same is the case with Sunnah and Bid‘ah. Regarding this, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has clearly stated: "Wherever a Bid‘ah becomes prevalent, a Sunnah is taken away from there." In other words, the spread of Bid‘ah necessarily results in the disappearance of Sunnah.
[9] This sentence also has two meanings. One is clear from the translation: that Allah will grant more or better than the reward for that good deed. The second meaning is that whatever better deed a person has, Allah will grant the reward for his other deeds as well according to the value of that better deed.
