Sura: 3 - aal-`Imraan (The Family of `Imraan) Ayat: 81 وَإِذْ أَخَذَ اللَّهُ مِيثَاقَ النَّبِيِّينَ لَمَا آتَيْتُكُمْ مِنْ كِتَابٍ وَحِكْمَةٍ ثُمَّ جَاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مُصَدِّقٌ لِمَا مَعَكُمْ لَتُؤْمِنُنَّ بِهِ وَلَتَنْصُرُنَّهُ ۚ قَالَ أَأَقْرَرْتُمْ وَأَخَذْتُمْ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكُمْ إِصْرِي ۖ قَالُوا أَقْرَرْنَا ۚ قَالَ فَاشْهَدُوا وَأَنَا مَعَكُمْ مِنَ الشَّاهِدِينَ (81
اور اس وقت کو یاد کرو جب خدا نے تمام انبیائ سے عہد لیا کہ ہم تم کو جو کتاب و حکمت دے رہے ہیں اس کے بعد جب وہ رسول آجائے جو تمہاری کتابوں کی تصدیق کرنے والا ہے تو تم سب اس پر ایمان لے آنا اور اس کی مدد کرنا .اور پھر پوچھا کیا تم نے ان باتوں کا اقرار کرلیا اور ہمارے عہد کو قبول کرلیا تو سب نے کہا بیشک ہم نے اقرار کرلیا- ارشاد ہوا کہ اب تم سب گواہ بھی رہنا اور میں بھی تمہارے ساتھ گواہوں میں ہوں
[YOUSAF ALI] Behold! Allah took the covenant of the prophets, saying: "I give you a Book and Wisdom; then comes to you a messenger, confirming what is with you; do ye believe in him and render him help." Allah said: "Do ye agree, and take this my Covenant as binding on you?" They said: "We agree." He said: "Then bear witness, and I am with you among the witnesses."
[ PICKTHAL ] When Allah made (His) covenant with the prophets, (He said): Behold that which I have given you of the Scripture and knowledge. And afterward there will come unto you a messenger, confirming that which ye possess. Ye shall believe in him and ye shall help him. He said: Do ye agree, and will ye take up My burden (which I lay upon you) in this (matter)? They answered: We agree. He said: Then bear ye witness. I will be a witness with you.
[ SHAKIR ] And when Allah made a covenant through the prophets: Certainly what I have given you of Book and wisdom-- then an messenger comes to you verifying that which is with you, you must believe in him, and you must aid him. He said: Do you affirm and accept My compact in this (matter)? They said: We do affirm. He said: Then bear witness, and I (too) am of the bearers of witness with you.
[ REMARKS : Allah(swt) took oath from all Prophets that they will testify for and help the Prophet(sawaw) when he comes. When they accepted the oath then they were nominated to be a Prophet. Only one who becomes momin first will be able to help the Prophet(sawaw).
