Verse146

(146) إِلاَّ الَّذِينَ تَابُواْ وَأَصْلَحُواْ وَاعْتَصَمُواْ بِاللّهِ وَأَخْلَصُواْ دِينَهُمْ لِلّهِ فَأُوْلَـئِكَ مَعَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

وَسَوْفَ يُؤْتِ اللّهُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا

146. " Except those who repent, and amend and hold fast to (the grace of) Allah and make their religion pure for Allah. These, then, are with the believers; and Allah will grant the believers a great reward. "
Commentary :
The way of repentance is open to all, even to the worst ones. Repentance can take a person from the position of ' the lowest stage of the Fire ' to ' the Exalted Heaven '. The Qur'an says:
" Except those who repent, ... "
Human beings are free and can change the way, i.e. they can repent:
" ... those who repent, ... "

Repentance is not only an expression of regret, but it is an inclusive improvability. The verse continues saying:
" ... and amend and hold fast (the grace of) Allah and make thier religion pure for Allah ... "
Those hypocrites who repent should not feel loneliness for the absence of their fellow-mindeds, because they find some better colleagues instead of them.
" ... these, then, are with the believers; "
Eclecticism in believes and thoughts is forbidden:
" ... and make their religion pure for Allah ... "
Then, it is to the believers to receive the true repentant ones and consider them as themselves.
"... these, then, are with the believers; and Allah will grant the believers a great reward. "
