يَحْلِفُونَ
بِاللَّهِ
لَكُمْ
لِيُرْضُوكُمْ
وَاللَّهُ
وَرَسُولُهُ
أَحَقُّ
أَن
يُرْضُوهُ
إِن
كَانُوا
مُؤْمِنِينَ
yaḥlifūna bi-llāhi lakum li-yurḍūkum wa-llāhu wa-rasūluhū ʾaḥaqqu ʾan yurḍūhu ʾin kānū muʾminīna
They swear to you by Allah, to please you; but Allah and His Apostle are worthier that they should please Him, should they be faithful.
— Ali Quli Qarai
To you they swear by Allah. In order to please you: But it is more fitting that they should please Allah and His Messenger, if they are Believers.
