(3:132) And obey Allah and the Messenger that you may obtain mercy. (3:133) And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous (3:134) Who spend [in the cause of Allah] during ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people - and Allah loves the doers of good; (3:135) And those who, when they commit an immorality or wrong themselves [by transgression], remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins - and who can forgive sins except Allah? - and [who] do not persist in what they have done while they know. (3:136) Those - their reward is forgiveness from their Lord and gardens beneath which rivers flow [in Paradise], wherein they will abide eternally; and excellent is the reward of the [righteous] workers. (3:137) Similar situations [as yours] have passed on before you, so proceed throughout the earth and observe how was the end of those who denied. (3:138) This [Qur`an] is a clear statement to [all] the people and a guidance and instruction for those conscious of Allah.
