8وَما لَكُم لا تُؤمِنونَ بِاللَّهِ ۙ وَالرَّسولُ يَدعوكُم لِتُؤمِنوا بِرَبِّكُم وَقَد أَخَذَ ميثاقَكُم إِن كُنتُم مُؤمِنينَAli UnalWhat is the matter with you that you do not believe in God (as His being God requires), when the Messenger calls you to believe in your Lord (Who has created and sustains you), and He has indeed taken your pledge,1 if you are true believers?This pledge was that they would obey the commands of God and His Messenger, upon him be peace and blessings, and spend in God’s cause, whether in ease or hardship; support and promote good; prohibit and try to prevent evil; and strive in God’s way, without fearing the censure of anyone.
