SURAH AL-BAQARAH: 279 - Part 2

The second sentence of this verse is وَاِنۡ تُبۡتُمۡ فَلَـكُمۡ رُءُوۡسُ اَمۡوَالِكُمۡ‌ۚ لَا تَظۡلِمُوۡنَ وَلَا تُظۡلَمُوۡنَ meaning "if you repent and resolve to leave off the remaining about of Riba in future, you will get your principal. Neither you will be able to do injustice to anyone by extracting more than your principal, nor will anyone be able to do injustice to you by decreasing or delaying the return of your principal. Here the return of the principal has been linked to the condition to do Taubah (repentance), and vowing never to take Riba in the future.
