(Furqan),

means, `a way out';

Mujahid added, "In this life and the Hereafter."

In another narration, Ibn Abbas is reported to have said,
`Furqan' means `salvation'

or -- according to another narration -- `aid'.

This will be a triumph, safety and a way out for them from the affairs of this life, all the while acquiring happiness in the Hereafter. They will also gain forgiveness, thus having their sins erased, and pardon, thus having their sins covered from other people, as well as, being directed to a way to gain Allah's tremendous rewards,
