The surah encouraging the believers to stick together in support of God’s cause and criticizes those who broke their word (verse 3) and those who argued against the faith (verse 7 ff.). Moses and Jesus are cited as examples of prophets whose communities were divided: the rebellious were left to stray and the faithful granted success (verse 5 ff. and verse 14). The rewards of those who strive in God’s cause are described in some detail (verse 11 ff.).«
