The duty of the messenger:

The duty of the messenger:

.

Obey God and obey the messenger, and beware: if you turn away, then know that the sole duty of Our messenger is the clear delivery (of the message of God). 5:92🦋

Obey God and obey the messenger. If you turn away, then the sole duty of the messenger is the clear delivery (of the message of God). 64:12🍁

.

The duty of the messenger is well defined in the above Quranic words. These verses tell us that the only duty of any messenger is to deliver God's message. It follows that in the case of prophet Muhammad, his only duty was to deliver the message of God (Quran).

.

We also have in the above Quranic verses a very strong link between:

1- Obeying the messenger

2- The sole duty of the messenger was to deliver the message

By adding 1 + 2 = Our obligation is to obey the message he delivered.

The word 'messenger' is derived from the word 'message'. A messenger delivers a message. If there were no message there would be no messenger.

وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ وَاحْذَرُوا ۚ فَإِنْ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّمَا عَلَىٰ رَسُولِنَا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ

আৰু তোমালোকে আল্লাহৰ আনুগত্য কৰা আৰু ৰাছুলৰ আনুগত্য কৰা লগতে সাৱধানতা অৱলম্বন কৰা; তথাপিও যদি তোমালোকে বিমুখ হোৱা তেন্তে জানি থোৱা যে, আমাৰ ৰাছুলৰ দায়িত্ব কেৱল সুস্পষ্টভাৱে প্ৰচাৰ কৰা।

وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ ۚ فَإِنْ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَإِنَّمَا عَلَىٰ رَسُولِنَا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ

তোমালোকে আল্লাহৰ আনুগত্য কৰা আৰু ৰাছুলৰ আনুগত্য কৰা। কিন্তু তোমালোকে যদি মুখ ঘূৰাই লোৱা তেন্তে (জানি থোৱা) মোৰ ৰাছুলৰ দায়িত্ব কেৱল স্পষ্টভাৱে প্ৰচাৰ কৰা।
