Whoever desires glory should know that all glory belongs to God in this world and in the Hereafter and it cannot be obtained from Him except through obedience to Him so let such a one be obedient to Him. To Him ascends good words that is to say He is aware of such good words and these are statements such as ‘there is no god except God’ and the like; and as for righteous action He exalts it He accepts it; but those who plot evil schemes against the Prophet — as was the case at the council assembly in the way of imprisoning him killing him or expelling him as mentioned in sūrat al-Anfāl Q. 830 — theirs shall be a severe chastisement and their plotting shall come to nothing it shall be ruined.
