إِنَّمَا كَانَ قَوۡلَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ إِذَا دُعُوٓاْ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ لِيَحۡكُمَ بَيۡنَهُمۡ أَن يَقُولُواْ سَمِعۡنَا وَأَطَعۡنَاۚ وَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُفۡلِحُونَ
٥١
The only saying of the faithful believers, when they are called to Allah
(His Words, the Quran) and His Messenger
(ﷺ), to judge between them, is that they say: "We hear and we obey." And such are the prosperous ones
(who will live forever in Paradise).
(51)
وَمَن يُطِعِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَيَخۡشَ ٱللَّهَ وَيَتَّقۡهِ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡفَآئِزُونَ
٥٢
And whosoever obeys Allah and His Messenger
(ﷺ), fears Allah, and keeps his duty
(to Him), such are the successful ones.
(52)
۞وَأَقۡسَمُواْ بِٱللَّهِ جَهۡدَ أَيۡمَٰنِهِمۡ لَئِنۡ أَمَرۡتَهُمۡ لَيَخۡرُجُنَّۖ قُل لَّا تُقۡسِمُواْۖ طَاعَةٞ مَّعۡرُوفَةٌۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ خَبِيرُۢ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ
٥٣
They swear by Allah their strongest oaths, that if only you would order them, they would leave
(their homes for fighting in Allah's Cause). Say: "Swear you not;
(this) obedience
(of yours) is known
(to be false). Verily, Allah knows well what you do."
(53)
قُلۡ أَطِيعُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُواْ ٱلرَّسُولَۖ فَإِن تَوَلَّوۡاْ فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيۡهِ مَا حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيۡكُم مَّا حُمِّلۡتُمۡۖ وَإِن تُطِيعُوهُ تَهۡتَدُواْۚ وَمَا عَلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ إِلَّا ٱلۡبَلَٰغُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ
٥٤
Say: "Obey Allah and obey the Messenger, but if you turn away, he
(Messenger Muhammad ﷺ) is only responsible for the duty placed on him
(i.e. to convey Allah's Message) and you for that placed on you. If you obey him, you shall be on the right guidance. The Messenger's duty is only to convey
(the message) in a clear way
(i.e. to preach in a plain way)."
(54)
وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مِنكُمۡ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَيَسۡتَخۡلِفَنَّهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَمَا ٱسۡتَخۡلَفَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمۡ دِينَهُمُ ٱلَّذِي ٱرۡتَضَىٰ لَهُمۡ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ خَوۡفِهِمۡ أَمۡنٗاۚ يَعۡبُدُونَنِي لَا يُشۡرِكُونَ بِي شَيۡـٔٗاۚ وَمَن كَفَرَ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡفَٰسِقُونَ
٥٥
Allah has promised those among you who believe, and do righteous good deeds, that He will certainly grant them succession to
(the present rulers) in the earth, as He granted it to those before them, and that He will grant them the authority to practise their religion, that which He has chosen for them
(i.e. Islam). And He will surely give them in exchange a safe security after their fear
(provided) they
(believers) worship Me and do not associate anything
(in worship) with Me. But whoever disbelieved after this, they are the Fasiqun
(rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
(55)
وَأَقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتُواْ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَأَطِيعُواْ ٱلرَّسُولَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ
٥٦
And perform As-Salat
(Iqamat-as-Salat), and give Zakat and obey the Messenger
(Muhammad ﷺ) that you may receive mercy
(from Allah).
(56)
لَا تَحۡسَبَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مُعۡجِزِينَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِۚ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُمُ ٱلنَّارُۖ وَلَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمَصِيرُ
٥٧
Consider not that the disbelievers can escape in the land. Their abode shall be the Fire, and worst indeed is that destination.
