The Holy Quran 24:51 — Surah An-Nur

Arabic text

إِنَّمَا كَانَ قَوْلَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِذَا دُعُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ لِيَحْكُمَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَن يَقُولُوا۟ سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا ۚ وَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ

Translation

(On the contrary,) When the Mu'mineen are called to appear before Allaah and His Rasool ﷺ so that he may pass judgement between them, all they say is, “We hear and we obey" (they are pleased to accept Rasulullaah ﷺ's judgement). These are the successful (prosperous) ones.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The way of the believers: that is, the business of the true Muslim is, and ought to be, that when they are called to Allah and the Messenger ﷺ in any matter, whether it outwardly brings them benefit or harm, they should not delay for a minute but at once say “سمعاً وطاعۃً” “we hear and we obey” and be ready to accept the command.
