Surah Saba' 34:47



ﳍ ﳎ ﳏ ﳐ ﳑ ﳒ ﳓ ﳔ ﳕ ﳖ ﳗ ﳘ ﳙ ﳚ ﳛ ﳜ ﳝ ﳞ ﳟ

Say, "Whatever payment I might have asked of you - it is yours. My payment is only from Allah, and He is, over all things, Witness."

I do not ask for any Reward for conveying the Message Allah commands His Messenger to:

قل

Say, Allah commands His Messenger to say to the idolators:

ما سٲلتكم من أجر فهو لكم

Whatever wage I might have asked of you is yours. meaning, `I do not want anything for conveying the Message of Allah to you, advising you and telling you to worship Allah.'

إن أجري إﻻ على الله

My wage is from Allah only, means, rather I will seek the reward for that with Allah.

وهو على كل شيء شهيد

and He is a Witness over all things. means, He knows all things, and He knows everything about me and the manner in which I am conveying the Message to you, and He knows all about you

قل إن ربي يقذف بالحق عﻼم الغيوب
