Most certainly Allah took the Pledge from all children of Israel And We set up from among them twelve announcers.
And Allah said, “I surely am with you. If you certainly establish the Prayer And you bring about the purification of earnings And you believed in My Messengers and you honored them And you lent the best as a loan to Allah Then I surely will remove from you your vices And I shall admit you to the gardens of Paradise Beneath which streams flow.”
So whoso among you disbelieved after that Has indeed lost the right road
