And Muhammad ([too] Allah bless him and give him peace) is but only a Messenger (and not God). Many a Messenger has passed away (from this world) before him as well (bearing adversities and turmoils). So, if he passes away or is martyred, will you then turn on your heels (back to your former religion i.e. will you consider his death or martyrdom- God forbid - based on either falsehood of Din [religion] of Islam or his untrue Messengership)? And whoever turns back on his heels shall not harm Allah the least. And Allah will soon reward those who give thanks (by remaining steadfast in hardship).
