Ayah 48:10

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يُبَايِعُونَكَ إِنَّمَا يُبَايِعُونَ ٱللَّهَ يَدُ ٱللَّهِ فَوْقَ أَيْدِيهِمْ فَمَن نَّكَثَ فَإِنَّمَا يَنكُثُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِۦ وَمَنْ أَوْفَىٰ بِمَا عَٰهَدَ عَلَيْهُ ٱللَّهَ فَسَيُؤْتِيهِ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا۝١٠

English · Saheeh InternationalIndeed, those who pledge allegiance to you, [O Muhammad] - they are actually pledging allegiance to Allah. The hand of Allah is over their hands. So he who breaks his word only breaks it to the detriment of himself. And he who fulfills that which he has promised Allah - He will give him a great reward.

German · Bubenheim & ElyasGewiß, diejenigen, die dir den Treueid leisten, leisten (in Wirklichkeit) nur Allah den Treueid; Allahs Hand ist über ihren Händen. Wer nun (sein Wort) bricht, bricht es nur zu seinem eigenen Nachteil; wer aber das einhält, wozu er sich Allah gegenüber verpflichtet hat, dem wird Er großartigen Lohn geben.
