In the Quran
وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ فِيكُمْ رَسُولَ ٱللَّهِ ۚ لَوْ يُطِيعُكُمْ فِى كَثِيرٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْأَمْرِ لَعَنِتُّمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ حَبَّبَ إِلَيْكُمُ ٱلْإِيمَٰنَ وَزَيَّنَهُۥ فِى قُلُوبِكُمْ وَكَرَّهَ إِلَيْكُمُ ٱلْكُفْرَ وَٱلْفُسُوقَ وَٱلْعِصْيَانَ ۚ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلرَّٰشِدُونَ
اور جان رکھو کہ تم میں خدا کے پیغمبرﷺ ہیں۔ اگر بہت سی باتوں میں وہ تمہارا کہا مان لیا کریں تو تم مشکل میں پڑ جاؤ لیکن خدا نے تم کو ایمان عزیز بنا دیا اور اس کو تمہارے دلوں میں سجا دیا اور کفر اور گناہ اور نافرمانی سے تم کو بیزار کردیا۔ یہی لوگ راہ ہدایت پر ہیں
And know that the messenger of Allah is among you. If he were to obey you in much of the government, ye would surely be in trouble; but Allah hath endeared the faith to you and hath beautified it in your hearts, and hath made disbelief and lewdness and rebellion hateful unto you. Such are they who are the rightly guided.
