Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the saying of Allah:
Except for those who repent, believe and do righteous work. For them Allah will replace their evil deeds with good.إِلَّا مَن تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا فَأُولَٰئِكَ يُبَدِّلُ اللَّهُ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ حَسَنَاتٍ
[Al-Furqan 25:70]
and Allah is Forgiving and Merciful, do the disbelievers who become Muslims fall under this, such that their deeds are transformed into good deeds?

Answer:
The verse is to be taken at its apparent meaning, and this is a promise from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Allah does not break a promise. Every repentant person is included in this noble promise from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
