Charity and Forgiveness – Attributes of the Righteous (3:133 – 3:136)

Attributes of the Righteous

3:133 You should eagerly race towards forgiveness from your Lord and a Paradise whose width encompasses the heavens and the earth; it awaits the righteous,

3:134 who give to charity during the good times, as well as the bad times. They are suppressors of anger, and pardoners of the people. GOD loves the charitable.

3:135 If they fall in sin or wrong their souls, they remember GOD and ask forgiveness for their sins – and who forgives the sins except GOD – and they do not persist in sins, knowingly.

3:136 Their recompense is forgiveness from their Lord, and gardens with flowing streams; they abide therein forever. What a blessed reward for the workers!
