Muhammad is no more than a messenger: many Were the messenger that passed away before him. If he died or were slain, will ye then Turn back on your heels? If any did turn back on his heels, not the least harm will he do to Allah; but Allah (on the other hand) will swiftly reward those who (serve Him) with gratitude.
ムハンマドは，一人の使徒に過ぎない。使徒たちはかれの前に逝った。もしかれが死ぬか，または殺されたら，あなたがたは踵を返すのか。誰が踵を返そうとも，少しもアッラーを損うことは出来ない。だがアッラーは，感謝（してかれに仕える）者に報われる。
