Tafsir
that He may forgive you some of your sins min dhunūbikum ‘some of your sins’ min may be taken as extra because submission to God islām expunges everything of sin that was committed previous to it; or it min may be understood as partitive to point out that which is due to those who were already God’s servants and defer you without chastising you until an appointed term the term for death. Indeed when God’s term for your chastisement — should you not believe — comes it cannot be deferred if only you knew’ this you would believe.

Ibn Abbas Commentary
(That He may forgive you somewhat of your sins) He will forgive your sins through your repentance and belief in Allah's divine Oneness (and respite you) without sending a punishment on you (to an appointed term) until you die. (Lo! the term of Allah) the torment of Allah, (when it cometh, cannot be delayed, if ye but knew) if you believe in what I say to you.
