(7) “As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, We will surely absolve them of their misdeeds and reward them according to the best of what they used to do.”
That is, those whom Allah has blessed with faith and righteous deeds: Allah will absolve them of their misdeeds, for good deeds erase bad deeds. “And We will surely reward them according to the best of what they used to do” ⦗627⦘—namely, their good deeds, both obligatory and recommended. These are the best deeds a servant performs, since he also performs permissible deeds and others besides them.
﴿٧﴾ ﴿وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَنُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنْهُمْ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ وَلَنَجْزِيَنَّهُمْ أَحْسَنَ الَّذِي كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ﴾ .
يعني أن الذين منَّ الله عليهم بالإيمان والعمل الصالح، سيكفر الله عنهم سيئاتهم، لأن الحسنات يذهبن السيئات، ﴿وَلَنَجْزِيَنَّهُمْ أَحْسَنَ الَّذِي كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ﴾ ⦗٦٢٧⦘ وهي أعمال الخير، من واجبات ومستحبات، فهي أحسن ما يعمل العبد، لأنه يعمل المباحات أيضا، وغيرها.
