105. The major sins are those for which punishment of the world or the Hereafter has been decreed. (Tafseer Roohul Mu'uni).

106. That sin is indecent which even the human intelligence regards as evil and which is regarded as wicked by followers of every religion. e.g. adultery, stealing etc.

107. Who pardon their criminals, but not the offenders of Shariah (laws of Islam). The first condition is included in good manners while the second condition is irreligiousness.

Ibn-Kathir

The tafsir of Surah Shura verse 37 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Shura ayat 36 which provides the complete commentary from verse 36 through 39.

(42:37) who eschew grave sins and shameful deeds,[58] and whenever they are angry, forgive;[59]

58. For explanation, see (Surah An-Nisa, Ayat 31); (Surah Al-Anaam, Ayat 151); (Surah An-Naml, Ayat 90); (Surah An-Najm, Ayat 32) and the E.Ns.

59. That is, they are not wrathful and crazy but are temperate and cool minded. They are not revengeful but forbearing and forgiving by nature. If ever they feel angry at something they control their rage. This characteristic is the best of man’s qualities, which has been highly commended in the Quran (Surah Aal-Imran, Ayat 134) and regarded as a major factor of the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) success (Surah Aal-Imran, Ayat 159). According to Aishah, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) never avenged himself on anybody, however, when a thing enjoined to be held sacred by Allah was desecrated, he would award the punishment. (Bukhari, Muslim).
