311. Changing Sins Into Good Deeds

(إِلّا مَنْ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ عَمَلاً صَالِحاً فَأُولئِكَ يُبَدِّلُ اللَّهُ سَيِّئاتِهِمْ حَسَنَاتٍ وَكانَ اللَّهُ غَفُوراً رَحِيماً) .1

"excepting those who repent, attain faith, and act righteously. For such, Allah will replace their misdeeds with good deeds, and Allah is all-forgiving, all-merciful." 2

1004.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : أوحى‏ اللَّهُ عزّ وجلّ‏إلى‏ داوودَ النَّبيِّ على‏ نبيّنا وآلهِ وعلَيهِ السّلامُ : يا داوودُ ، إنّ عَبديَ المؤمنَ إذا أذْنَبَ ذَنباً ثُمّ رَجعَ وتابَ مِن ذلكَ الذَّنبِ واسْتَحيى‏ مِنّي عندَ ذِكْرِهِ غَفَرْتُ لَهُ ، وأنسَيْتُهُ الحَفَظَةَ وأبْدَلْتُهُ الحسَنَةَ ، ولا اُبالي وأنا أرْحَمُ الرّاحِمينَ .3

1004.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) narrated, 'Allah, the Exalted, revealed to Prophet David 4 - peace be upon him and on our Prophet, 'O David! When My believing servant commits a sin and then returns [to Me] and repents for that sin and is ashamed in My presence every time he remembers it, I will forgive him and cause the recording angels to forget it and change it to count as a good deed, and I will not care about it further, for I am the most Merciful.' 5
