Ayat 74. Verily, the Mujrimun (criminals, sinners, disbelievers, etc.) will be in the torment of Hell to abide therein forever.

Ayat 75. (The torment) will not be lightened for them, and they will be plunged into destruction with deep regrets, sorrows and in despair therein.

Ayat 76. Allah did not victimized them, but they were the Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers, etc.).

Tafseer of Al Zukhruf (The Gold Adornments) Ayat 74. The sinners will be in the Punishment of Hell, to dwell therein (for aye): Ayat 75. Nowise will the (Punishment) be lightened for them, and in despair will they be there overwhelmed. Ayat 76. Nowise shall Allah be unjust to them: but it is they who have been unjust themselves.

4673 The wrongdoers suffer not because Allah is unjust or cruel, nor as a deterrent to others, for the probationary period will then have passed, but because their evil deeds must bear their inevitable fruit. Allah's Grace was ever ready to offer opportunities for Repentance and Forgiveness. But they rejected them. They were unjust to themselves. This is complementary to the doctrine of works and their fruits.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said,  ,  "Every one of my followers will be forgiven except those who expose (openly) their wrongdoings. An example of this is that of a man who commits a sin at night which Allah has covered for him, and in the morning, he would say (to people): "I committed such and such sin last night,' while Allah had kept it a secret. During the night Allah has covered it up but in the morning he tears up the cover provided by Allah Himself.'' [Bukhari Book 08, Chapter 73, Hadith # 95]. 

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al Zukhruf Ayat 76. Allah did not victimized them, but they were the Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers, etc.)” We learn from this Hadith that commission of a sin due to human frailties on which one is ashamed but does not like to express is something which might hopefully be forgiven by Allah. In fact, its remission after penitence is almost sure. But to commit a sin openly is totally different because, firstly, the heart of such a person is deprived of the fear of Allah. Secondly, he has no respect and regard for Divine injunctions. Thirdly, such a person usually does not repent his sins. Fourthly, he makes a declaration of breach of Divine injunctions which amounts to inviting His wrath and punishment.
