Surely those who pledge allegiance to you ˹O Prophet˺ are actually pledging allegiance to Allah. Allah’s Hand is over theirs. Whoever breaks their pledge, it will only be to their own loss. And whoever fulfils their pledge to Allah, He will grant them a great reward.
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
Indeed, those who pledge allegiance to you, [O Muḥammad] - they are actually pledging allegiance to Allah. The hand1 of Allah is over their hands.2 So he who breaks his word only breaks it to the detriment of himself. And he who fulfills that which he has promised Allah - He will give him a great reward.
