بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

4.48

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یَغْفِرُ اَنْ یُّشْرَكَ بِهٖ وَ یَغْفِرُ مَا دُوْنَ ذٰلِكَ لِمَنْ یَّشَآءُۚ-وَ مَنْ یُّشْرِكْ بِاللّٰهِ فَقَدِ افْتَرٰۤى اِثْمًا عَظِیْمًا(48)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

Indeed, Allah does not forgive that a partner is ascribed to Him,[1] and He forgives what is less than that for whomsoever He wills.[2] And whosoever ascribes a partner to Allah, ˹he˺ has indeed fabricated a grave sin.

Commentary

[1]

The one who died in a state of disbelief shall never be forgiven, and he who did not resort to disbelief—regardless of how sinful he is—will not stay in Hell forever; his forgiveness depends upon the will of Allah Almighty. If Allah Almighty wills, he may be forgiven, or he may first be punished for his sins then granted entry into Paradise.

[2]

There is a possibility for all sins to be forgiven on the Day of Judgement except for disbelief, but falling into sin with this hope of forgiveness is very dangerous. In fact in some cases, taking sins lightly can incur disbelief. How generous is Allah Almighty Who gives hope of forgiveness to thousands of sinners, and how bad is the one who constantly disobeys such a gracious Lord instead of devoting himself to His grace and mercy.
