Indeed Allah took the covenant from the Children of Israel (Jews), and We appointed twelve leaders among them. And Allah said: "I am with you if you perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat) and give Zakat and believe in My Messengers; honour and assist them, and lend to Allah a good loan. Verily, I will remit your sins and admit you to Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise). But if any of you after this, disbelieved, he has indeed gone astray from the Straight Path."
Na Mwenyezi Mungu alifanya agano na Wana wa Israili. Na tukawateulia kutokana nao wakuu kumi na mbili. Na Mwenyezi Mungu akasema: Kwa yakini Mimi ni pamoja nanyi. Mkisali, na mkatoa Zaka, na mkawaamini Mitume wangu, na mkawasaidia, na mkamkopesha Mwenyezi Mungu mkopo mwema, hapana shaka nitakufutieni maovu yenu na nitakuingizeni katika mabustani yapitayo mito kati yake. Lakini atakaye kufuru miongoni mwenu baada ya hayo bila ya shaka atakuwa amepotea njia iliyo sawa.
