{Muḥammad is the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah, and those who are with him are severe<br />
against disbelievers, and merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and<br />
falling down prostrate (in prayer), seeking Bounty from <strong>Al</strong>laah and (His) Good<br />
Pleasure. The mark of them (i.e. of their Faith) is on their faces (foreheads) from the<br />
traces of (their) prostration (during prayers). This is their description in the Taurah.<br />
But their description in the Injeel is like a (sown) seed which sends forth its shoot,<br />
then makes it strong, it then becomes thick, and it stands straight on its stem,<br />
delighting the sowers that He (<strong>Al</strong>laah) may enrage the disbelievers with them. <strong>Al</strong>laah<br />
has promised those who believe and do righteous good deeds among them,<br />
forgiveness and a mighty reward (i.e. Paradise).} [Surah al-Fatḥ (48): 29]<br />
And <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل said:<br />
﴿وَإِذُُأَخَذَُُاللَّهُُمِيثَاقَُُالنَّبِيِّنيَُُلَمَاُآتَي ت ك مُمِّنُكِتَاب ُُوَحِ ك مَةُُث َُُّجَاءَك م ُُرَس ول ُُمُّصَدِّق ُُلِّمَاُمَعَك م ُُ<br />
لَت ؤ مِن نَُُّبِهُُِوَلَتَنص ر نَّهُُُۖقَالَُُأَأَق رَر مت ُُوَأَخَذ مت ُُعَلَىُُذَىلِك م ُُإِص رِيُُۖقَال واُأَق رَر نَاُُۖقَالَُُفَاش هَد واُوَأَنَاُمَعَك مُ<br />
مِّنَُُالشَّاهِدِينَُ﴾<br />
{And (remember) when <strong>Al</strong>laah took the Covenant of the Prophets, saying: “Take<br />
whatever I gave you from the Book and Hikmah, and afterward there will come to<br />
you a Messenger (Muḥammad) confirming what is with you; you must, then, believe<br />
in him and help him.” <strong>Al</strong>laah said: “Do you agree (to it) and will you take up My<br />
Covenant (which I conclude with you)?” They said: “We agree.” He (<strong>Al</strong>laah) said:<br />
“Then bear witness, and I am with you among the witnesses (for this).”} [Surah aal-<br />
`Imraan (3): 81]<br />
And it is reported that Ibn `Abbaas رضي ُاهلل ُعنهما said: “Never did <strong>Al</strong>laah sent a Prophet<br />
except after taking his pledge that if Muḥammad were sent in his lifetime, he would<br />
believe in and support him. And <strong>Al</strong>laah commanded each Prophet to take a pledge from<br />
his nation that if Muḥammad were sent in their time, they would believe in and support<br />
him.” 80<br />
80 Here Ibn Katheer mentioned that this was reported by Imaam al-Bukhaaree in his Ṣaḥeeḥ, but I (al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee)<br />
did not find it. I rigorously searched for it (in Ṣaḥeeḥ al-Bukhaaree) but it was in vain. He (Ibn Katheer) also<br />
رضيُاهللُ reported this in his Tafseer under the Aayah of aal-`Imraan from the narrations of `<strong>Al</strong>ee and Ibn `Abbaas<br />
