O you who believe! Repent to Allahu ta’ālā with sincere repentance (read nasūhan or nusūhan), a truthful [repentance], so that one does not return to [committing] that sin again, nor have the desire to return to it. It may be that your Rabb ('asā: [an expression denoting] 'a hope' that will be realised) will absolve you of your misdeeds and admit you into gardens, orchards, underneath which rivers flow, on the day when Allahu ta’ālā will not let down, by admitting into the Fire, the Prophet and those who believe with him. Their light will be running before them, in front of them, and, it will be, on their right. They will say (yaqūlūna: this denotes the beginning of a new [syntactically independent] sentence), 'Our Rabb! Perfect our light for us, towards Paradise - whereas the hypocrites, their light will be extinguished - and forgive us, Our Rabb. Assuredly You have power over all things'.
