Without doubt, among men, the nearest of kin to Abraham, are those who follow him, as are also this Prophet and those who believe: And Allah is the Protector of those who have faith.

Allah turned with favour to the Prophet, the Muhajirs, and the Ansar,- who followed him in a time of distress, after that the hearts of a part of them had nearly swerved (from duty); but He turned to them (also): for He is unto them Most Kind, Most Merciful.

Then, in their wake, We followed them up with (others of) Our messengers: We sent after them Jesus the son of Mary, and bestowed on him the Gospel; and We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him Compassion and Mercy. But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them: (We commanded) only the seeking for the Good Pleasure of Allah; but that they did not foster as they should have done. Yet We bestowed, on those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them are rebellious transgressors.

与易卜拉欣最亲密的，确是顺从他的人，和这个先知，和信道的人。真主是信士们的保佑者。

真主确已允许先知以及在困难时刻追随他的迁士们和辅士们悔过。当时，他们中一部分人的心几乎偏邪之后，真主允许他们悔过，真主对他们确是至爱的，确是至慈的。

在他们之后，我曾继续派遣我的众使者，我又继续派遣麦尔彦之子尔撒，我赏赐他《引支勒》，我使他的信徒们心怀仁爱和慈悯。他们自创出家制--我未曾以出家为他们的定制--他们创设此制，以求真主的喜悦；但他们未曾切实的遵守它，故我把报酬赏赐他们中的信道者。他们中有许多人是悖逆的。
