Al-Jalalayn Commentary

And remember God’s grace upon you through Islam and His covenant His pledge which He made He bound with you when you said to the Prophet s upon pledging allegiance to him ‘We hear and we obey’ all that you command and forbid of what we love and what we despise. And fear God in His covenant lest you break it. Surely God knows what is in the breasts that is what is in the hearts of people all the more reason for Him to have knowledge of other things.
