"Allah forgives your past and future sins," has been explained by a scholar of Islam that Allah gave the Prophet the status of being pardoned and forgiveness.

(Shaykh Darwish added: "This status becomes apparent by His addressing the Prophet with forgiving his sins although the Prophet had neither a major nor minor sin, because his satan embraced Islam.

It is essential to study the Prophet's status of being pardoned and his status of protection in conjunction with each other, and it is of the utmost importance to remember that Allah protected him from every kind of major or minor sin. If one were to do otherwise, then one is sure to become distracted and misunderstand this extremely important element of the Prophet's nature.")

Another scholar said that, "Allah forgives your past and future sins," means the status of forgiveness for what had occurred and what had not occurred. Makki, on the other hand said, "Allah has made favor a cause for his status forgiveness and that everything comes from Him because there is no god except Him. Favor upon favor and bounty upon bounty."

The second verse continues, "and completes His Favor to you". It has been said that, Allah is referring to the opening of Mecca and Ta'if. In addition to these explanations, it has been said that it means the elevation of the Prophet's status in this life, the help of Allah, and His forgiveness. In this verse, Allah tells the Prophet that the completion of His blessings is in humiliation of his arrogant enemies, and the opening of two of the most important cities, Mecca and Ta'if, through which the prophetic status is raised, because he is guided on the Straight Path which ultimately leads to Paradise, and happiness in the Everlasting Life. The Prophet was always helped by Allah, but the help he received during that time was by far mightier.

The next verse tells of the favor of Allah upon the believers through His blessing towards them by the sending down of tranquility upon their hearts that increased them in belief. Further on Allah gives the best of news – that of a mighty triumph – to both believing men and women that Allah forgives and acquits them of their sins, and rewards them with Paradise where they shall live for ever. Allah then speaks of the punishment of the hypocrites and idolaters in this world and in the Everlasting Life, saying they are cursed and distanced from His Mercy and their final arrival is an evil place in Hell.

Allah says, "We have sent you (Prophet Muhammad) as a witness and as a
bearer of glad tidings and warning". In this verse Allah mentions more of the Prophet's excellent qualities and characteristics. He tells us that Prophet
Muhammad will be a witness against his nation because it is he who conveyed to them the Message entrusted to him by Allah.
