11
إِلّا مَن ظَلَمَ ثُمَّ بَدَّلَ حُسنًا بَعدَ سوءٍ فَإِنّي غَفورٌ رَحيمٌ

Muhammad Asad

and neither1 need anyone who has done wrong and then has replaced the wrong with good:2 for, verily, I am much-forgiving, a dispenser of grace!
  • For my rendering of illa, in this context, as "and neither", see note 38 on 4:29.
  • I.e., by sincere repentance. Apart from its general significance, this may also be an allusion to the crime which Moses had committed in his youth by slaying the Egyptian (see 28:15-17).
