بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

10.72

فَاِنْ تَوَلَّیْتُمْ فَمَا سَاَلْتُكُمْ مِّنْ اَجْرٍؕ-اِنْ اَجْرِیَ اِلَّا عَلَى اللّٰهِۙ-وَ اُمِرْتُ اَنْ اَكُوْنَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ(72)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

Then, if you turn away, ˹remember˺ I did not seek recompense from you; my reward is only with Allah,[1] and I have been commanded to be from the believers[2].”

Commentary

[1]

Advising others should only be done for the sake of Allah Almighty, not worldly ambitions. People serving Islam as Imams, teachers, muezzins, and researchers, for example, are allowed to be remunerated.

[2]

This means, “Whether or not you choose to embrace Islam, I have been commanded to remain steadfast upon Islam.” Another interpretation is, “I have been commanded to remain obedient to Allah, despite any difficulty I face from you while I invite to Islam.”
