Verse 74
Table of Contents
74. “And (as for) those who believed and migrated and strove in the way of Allah, and those who gave shelter and helped, those are the believers truly; for them is forgiveness and a noble sustenance.”
Then Allah refers again to the Emigrants and the Helpers (Ansar) and admires them. The verse says:
“And (as for) those who believed and migrated and strove in the way of Allah, and those who gave shelter and helped, those are the believers truly...”
The evidence of this statement is that they both emigrated, and helped the Muslims, and separated from their relatives, and also, by spending their properties for the sake of the religion of Allah, they proved their true Faith. The verse continues saying:
“...for them is forgiveness and a noble sustenance.”
