العهد والميثاق
44 verses in 16 surahs · 9 subtopics
Allah took covenants from the children of Adam, the prophets, the Children of Israel, the People of the Book and the believers: these verses speak of them and command keeping one’s pledges, praising those who honour them and blaming those who break them. They also address treaties with enemies: honouring them until their term as long as the other side does, and openly declaring their termination.

And [mention, O Muḥammad], when Abraham was tried by his Lord with words [i.e., commands] and he fulfilled them. [Allāh] said, "Indeed, I will make you a leader for the people." [Abraham] said, "And of my descendants?" [Allāh] said, "My covenant does not include the wrongdoers."
