    His word نَبِّئْ عِبَادِي أَنِّي أَنَا الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ — Allah, exalted be His praise, says to His Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ: Inform My servants, O Muḥammad, that I am the One Who conceals their sins when they show repentance from them and turn to Me — by not shaming or punishing them for that — the Merciful toward them by not punishing them after their repentance from that.

    وقوله ( نَبِّئْ عِبَادِي أَنِّي أَنَا الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ ) يقول تعالى ذكره لنبيه محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم: أخبر عبادي يا محمد، أني أنا الذي أستر على ذنوبهم إذا تابوا منها وأنابوا، بترك فضيحتهم بها وعقوبتهم عليها، الرحيم بهم أن أعذّبهم بعد توبتهم منها عليها.
