{Islamic Mailing Group} Allah is Most Merciful.

'And whosoever does evil or wrongs himself but afterwards seeks Allah's Forgiveness, he will find Allah Oft-forgiving and Most Merciful.''
(4:110)

Allah emphasizes His generosity and kindness, in that He forgives whoever repents to Him from whatever evil they commit.
Ali bin Abi Talhah said that Ibn Abbas commented about this Ayah,
"Allah informs His servants of His forgiveness, forbearing generosity and expansive mercy. So whoever commits a sin, whether minor or major, ثُمَّ يَسْتَغْفِرِ اللّهَ يَجِدِ اللّهَ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا (but afterwards seeks Allah's forgiveness, he will find Allah Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful), even if his sins were greater than the heavens, the earth and the mountains.''

Imam Ahmad recorded that Ali said,
"Whenever I hear anything from the Messenger of Allah, Allah benefits me with whatever He wills of that. Abu Bakr told me, and Abu Bakr has said the truth, that the Messenger of Allah said,
No Muslim commits a sin and then performs ablution, prays two Rak`ahs and begs Allah for forgiveness for that sin, but He forgives him.
(Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
