An-Nur 24:54 قل اطيعوا الله واطيعوا الرسول فان تولوا فانما عليه ما حمل وعليكم ما حملتم وان تطيعوه تهتدوا وما على الرسول الا البلاغ المبين ٥٤
قُلۡ
أَطِيعُواْ
ٱللَّهَ
وَأَطِيعُواْ
ٱلرَّسُولَۖ
فَإِن
تَوَلَّوۡاْ
فَإِنَّمَا
عَلَيۡهِ
مَا
حُمِّلَ
وَعَلَيۡكُم
مَّا
حُمِّلۡتُمۡۖ
وَإِن
تُطِيعُوهُ
تَهۡتَدُواْۚ
وَمَا
عَلَى
ٱلرَّسُولِ
إِلَّا
ٱلۡبَلَٰغُ
ٱلۡمُبِينُ
٥٤

If ye obey him, ye will go aright. But the messenger hath no other charge than to convey (the message) plainly.
