Bismillah
Alhamdulelah who has Guided us for this and if it wasnt for Him we wouldnt have been guided.
To continue reviewing the major benefit that befells those who follow the Messenger salla Allah a`lyhee wa sallam, the benefit is abundant.
Verily, <b>those who give Bai'a (pledge) to you (O Muhammad)</b> they are giving Bai'a (pledge) to Allah. The Hand of Allah is over their hands.
Then whosoever breaks his pledge, breaks only to his own harm, and whosoever fulfills what he has covenanted with Allah, He will bestow on him a great reward. (Quran 48:10)
12. Giving pledge to the Messenger prayer and peace be upon him is not restricted only on those who accompanied him during his life. But to believe in Allah, Islam as brought by Mohamed prayer and peace be upon him, applying what he gave us= IS giving pledge to Allah.
Just look at the fruit of giving pledge to Allah in the succeeding Ayah, the Hand of Allah Shall be over their hands. Can you imagine being blessed with having the Hand of Allah (which of course is not like our hands), to be over our hand? This means, having the support you need, the strenght you need, the guidance you need, the directing you need, the power you need, the light you need. You will have all what any human being needs to lead a proper steady life. Just by giving pledge to the Messenger salla Allah a`lyhee wa sallam.
