Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is the interpretation of the saying of Allah the Exalted:
O you who have believed, if you support Allah, He will support youيَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن تَنصُرُوا اللَّهَ يَنصُرْكُمْ
[Muhammad 47:7]


Answer:
It is clear: if you support the religion of Allah, then Allah will support you, because the reward is of the same kind as the deed. Support the religion of Allah. Allah the Exalted said: “Those whom We have given authority in the land…” Allah the Exalted said:
And Allah will surely support those who support Him. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and Exalted in Might.وَلَيَنصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزِيزٌ
[Al-Hajj 22:40]
And Allah will surely support those who support Himوَلَيَنصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُ
[Al-Hajj 22:40]
What is the interpretation of “Allah supports”? In the verse that follows: “Those whom We have given authority in the land…”
establish prayer and give zakah and enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrongأَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتَوُا الزَّكَاةَ وَأَمَرُوا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَنَهَوْا عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ
[Al-Hajj 22:41]
This is support for the religion of Allah, Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
