If you loan Allah a goodly loan, He will multiply it for you and forgive you. And Allah is Most Appreciative and Forbearing.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

إِن تُقْرِضُوا اللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا يُضَاعِفْهُ لَكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْIf you lend to Allah a handsome loan, He will double it for you, and will forgive you.meaning, whatever you spend, then Allah will replace it, and on Him will be the reward of whatever you give away in charity.Allah considered giving charity as if it is a loan to Him, just as Allah said in a Qudsi Hadith,مَنْ يُقْرِضُ غَيْرَ ظَلُومٍ وَلَا عَدِيم"Who will give a loan to He Who is neither unjust nor poor"This is why Allah the Exalted said in Surah Al-Baqarah,فَيُضَاعِفَهُ لَهُ أَضْعَافًا كَثِيرَةًSo that He may multiply it to him many times. (2:245)Allah said;وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْand will forgive you.meaning, He will erase your mistakes,وَاللَّهُ شَكُورٌAnd Allah is Shakur,meaning, He gives abundantly in return for what was little,حَلِيمٌHalim, means, He forgives, pardons, covers and absolves the sins, mistakes, errors and shortcomings,عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ
