The Orchard of Guidance.

Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said:
0:08
“O ye who believe! if ye obey those who disbelieve, they will make you turn back on your heels, and ye turn back as losers.” (3:149)
0:25
“But Allah is your Protector, and He is the Best of Helpers.” (3:150)
0:33
And he, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:
0:36
"O people!
0:38
Whatever pact was established during the pre-Islamic era of ignorance,
0:42
Islam only further strengthens it;
0:46
and there is to be no new pact of alliance in Islam.
0:48
The Muslims are a single hand against all others:
0:52
their blood is equal in value,
0:54
the protection granted by the humblest among them is binding upon them all,
0:57
the furthest of them can grant asylum on their behalf,
1:00
and the spoils taken by their expeditions are shared with those who stayed behind.
1:04
A believer is not to be killed in retribution for a disbeliever,
1:07
and the blood money of a disbeliever is half that of a Muslim.
1:11
There is to be neither Jalab nor Janab in collecting zakat,
1:14
and their charities are only to be taken within their own dwellings."
1:19
Narrated by Imam Ahmad.

A Point of Benefit:
1:25
The Muslims are a single hand,
1:27
one body,
1:29
and a unified structure, each part supporting the other.
1:32
Allah aids and grants them victory,
1:35
and this is precisely what enrages the disbelievers
1:38
and fills their hearts with envy.
1:40
Thus, they strive to sow division among the believers,
1:44
so that they might disbelieve just as they disbelieved,
1:46
and thereby become equal with them.
1:49
Blessed, then, is the one who takes heed.
