Transliteration:( Innal lazeena qaaloo Rabbunal laahu summas taqaamoo falaa khawfun 'alaihim wa laahum yahzanoon )
Surely, those who say: "Our Lord [34] is Allah", and then are steadfast [35] by it, no fear shall be upon them nor shall they grieve [36].
To truly say “Our Lord is Allah” means to also believe in all His Prophets, Books, and commands. Just as accepting someone as your father requires respecting his entire family—his father as your grandfather, his wife as your mother, his brother as your uncle—similarly, one who claims belief in Allah yet rejects His Prophets is false in his claim. In reality, he does not believe in Allah at all.
Being steadfast means to remain firm on faith until the end of life. These are those whose final state is upon Imaan, without wavering, deviation, or spiritual loss. Their consistency and perseverance on the truth are what elevate their status in the Hereafter.
May Allah Almighty grant this to every believer — Ameen. These are the blessed and fortunate believers who will have no grief over what they left behind in the world, nor fear about what lies ahead in the Hereafter. This verse is also echoed in Surah Yunus, and the message remains the same: steadfast faith brings complete peace and security in the next life.
