Allah will remit them their deeds of an evil savour and blot out their worst deeds and requite them for every regular deed at the gauge of the best of what they had accomplished

Then, who does more wrong than one who utters a lie against Allah, and denies the truth when it comes to him! Is there not in Hell an abode for the disbelievers ( 32 )And he who has brought the truth and ( those who ) believed therein, they are those who have Taqwa ( 33 )They shall have all that they will desire with their Lord.
That is the reward of the doers of good ( 34 )So that Allah may expiate from them the evil of what they did and give them the reward, according to the best of what they used to do ( 35 ) The Punishment of the Disbelievers and Liars, and the Reward of the Sincere Believers The idolators uttered lies against Allah and said that there were other gods besides Him and claimed that the angels were the daughters of Allah and that Allah had a son – glorified be He far above all that they say.
Moreover, they rejected the truth when it came to them on the lips of the Messengers ( peace and blessings be upon them all ).
Allah says: فَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنْ كَذَبَ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَكَذَّبَ بِالصِّدْقِ إِذْ جَاءَهُ ۚ ( Then, who does more wrong than one who utters a lie against Allah, and denies the truth when it comes to him! ) meaning, there is no one who does more wrong than such a person, because he combines the two aspects of falsehood, disbelief in Allah and disbelief in the Messenger of Allah.
They made false claims and rejected the truth, Allah threatened them: أَلَيْسَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ مَثْوًى لِلْكَافِرِينَ ( Is there not in Hell an abode for the disbelievers? ) who are the deniers and rejecters.

'Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam said: وَالَّذِي جَاءَ بِالصِّدْقِ ( "And he who has brought the truth ) means the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. وَصَدَّقَ بِهِ ( and (those who ) believed therein) means the Muslims." أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُتَّقُونَ ( they are those who have Taqwa ).
Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said, "They fear and shun Shirk." لَهُمْ مَا يَشَاءُونَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ ۚ ( They shall have all that they will desire with their Lord. ) means, in Paradise; whatever they ask for they will have. ذَٰلِكَ جَزَاءُ الْمُحْسِنِينَ - لِيُكَفِّرَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ أَسْوَأَ الَّذِي عَمِلُوا وَيَجْزِيَهُمْ أَجْرَهُمْ بِأَحْسَنِ الَّذِي كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ ( That is the reward of doers of good.
So that Allah may expiate from them the evil of what they did and give them the reward, according to the best of what they used to do. ) This is like the Ayah: أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ نَتَقَبَّلُ عَنْهُمْ أَحْسَنَ مَا عَمِلُوا وَنَتَجَاوَزُ عَنْ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ فِي أَصْحَابِ الْجَنَّةِ ۖ وَعْدَ الصِّدْقِ الَّذِي كَانُوا يُوعَدُونَ ( They are those from whom We shall accept the best of their deeds and overlook their evil deeds.
(They shall be ) among the dwellers of Paradise, a promise of truth, which they have been promised.)( 46:16 ).
