Whoever obeys God and His Prophet, fears God and does his duty to Him, will surely find success.

They swear solemnly by God: "If you command us we shall go forth." Say: "Do not swear. What is wanted is obedience, as should be. God is certainly aware of what you do."

English

Ahmed Ali

Say: "Obey God and obey the Apostle. If you turn away, then for him is his duty to fulfil, and for you the burden that you carry; yet if you obey him you will be rightly guided. The duty of the Messenger is to convey the message clearly.

وَعَدَ اللہُ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مِنْكُمْ وَ عَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّہُمْ فِي الْاَرْضِ كَـمَا اسْتَخْلَفَ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِہِمْ۝۰۠ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَہُمْ دِيْنَہُمُ الَّذِي ارْتَضٰى لَہُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّہُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ خَوْفِہِمْ اَمْنًا۝۰ۭ يَعْبُدُوْنَنِيْ لَا يُشْرِكُوْنَ بِيْ شَـيْــــًٔـا۝۰ۭ وَمَنْ كَفَرَ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ فَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ ہُمُ الْفٰسِقُوْنَ۝۵۵

English

Ahmed Ali

God has promised to make those of you who believe and do the right, leaders in the land, as He had made those before them, and will establish their faith which He has chosen for them and change their fear into security. They will worship Me and not associate any one with Me. But those who disbelieve after this will be reprobates.

55

وَاَقِيْمُوا الصَّلٰوۃَ وَاٰتُوا الزَّكٰوۃَ وَاَطِيْعُوا الرَّسُوْلَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُوْنَ۝۵۶
