Discipline. Like when God chastens you for doing something you shouldn't have done. But the Bible says that it is a good thing because He is treating you like a son (or daughter).

The Hebrew noun mu‧sar′ and the verb form ya‧sar′ convey the sense of “discipline,” “chastisement,” “correction,” “exhortation.” In the Greek Septuagint and in the Christian Greek Scriptures, the corresponding noun pai‧dei′a and the verb pai‧deu′o have basically the same significance. Drawn from pais, meaning “child,” pai‧dei′a primarily relates to what is needed in bringing up children—discipline, instruction, education, correction, chastisement.

Punishment or discipline brought by God for the purpose of
1. education, instruction, and training ( job 4:3 ),
2. corrective guidance ( 2 Tim. 2:25 ),
3. discipline, in the sense of corrective physical punishment ( Prov 22:15, Rev 3:19 )

Chastisement means punishment.

According to the last revealtion of God.
Quran Sura 2 Al-Baqara.
165
There are some who worship other deities besides Allah (mushrikin), they love them as they should love Allah, whereas the
believers are strong in love for Allah. If those who are unjust could visualize (the Day of Judgement) when they will see the
chastisement, they would come to know for sure that all powers belong to Allah and that Allah is stern in retribution.

166
On that Day those leaders who were being followed, when faced with their punishment, will renounce those who followed
them and the bonds which united them will break asunder.

167
The followers will say: "If it could be possible for us to live again, we would renounce them as they have renounced us
today." Thus Allah will show them the fruits of their deeds. They will sigh with regret, and shall not be able to come out of
the Hell fire.


But do you know how MERCIFUL & FORGIVING is God?

The Last Prophet pbh said that God says

"O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me, I shall forgive you for what you have done, and I shall not mind. O
son of Adam, were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you. O
son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the earth and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness nearly as great at it."

From book of the Sayings of Prophet Mohd. s.a.w. (Hadith Qudsi - 34)

Quran Chapter 16 . An-Nahl
119
Yet your Rabb is forgiving and merciful towards those who do something wrong through ignorance, but later repent and mend their ways.

Quran chapter 4 An-Nisaa
17
Repentance with Allah (right to be forgiven by Allah) is only for those who do something evil in ignorance and repent as soon as they realize it; Allah will pardon them. Allah is the Knowledgeable, Wise.

18
There is no repentance for those who persist in their evil deeds until death approaches anyone of them and he
says: "surely now I repent." Similarly, there is no repentance for those who die while they were still unbelievers; for them We have prepared a painful punishment.

Normally meant as a verbal punishment but in its archaic form it is to purify.

The punishment that Christ carried on our behalf (See Isaiah 53)
