God revealed that He would bestow the guidance, delivered through revelation, as mentioned in the final verses of Surah Al-Baqarah. This guidance was initially communicated to Adam, informing him of his role as the vicegerent on Earth and the temporary nature of his existence in Paradise. The message conveyed that all future guidance for prophets would follow this same path. Adherence to this divine guidance guarantees security and salvation, while rejection leads to the fires of Hell.

The term ‘Infaq’ in the Quran differs from general charity. It’s not limited to helping the poor, orphans, or the needy. Infaq specifically refers to spending in the way of Allah – for the propagation, elevation, and establishment of the religion. This spending, considered a loan to Allah, fuels the struggle for Islam's dominance. Supporting relatives is a personal obligation, while investing in the religion is a direct loan to Allah, a debt He Himself acknowledges. This concept distinguishes between familial support and investment in faith.
