except for those who afterwards repent and reform. god is forgiving and merciful but as for those who are bent on denying the truth after accepting the true faith and grow in their refusal to acknowledge the truth their repentance will not be accepted. they are the ones who have gone far astray.
إلا الذين تابوا من بعد ذلك وأصلحوا فإن الله غفور رحيم إن الذين كفروا بعد إيمانهم ثم ازدادوا كفرا لن تقبل توبتهم وأولئك هم الضالون
