That is, you must seek strength from God Almighty and look for His blessings. Show complete loyalty to me for His sake and in accordance with His command. I am just a human being; feeble and weak. Overlook the mistakes I am bound to make and I assure you before God I too will act with forbearance and overlook your errors. We must both join together to bring to fulfilment the purpose of this mission and ensure its success in a real and practical sense. You have entered into a relationship with me–so fulfil its obligations with sincerity. Let us continue to forgive each other’s weaknesses through the help of God’s grace. You will have to obey me in all good things. However, if God forbid, I say He is not one, then I swear by the same God in Whose hands is my life, Who is truly one and without partner and there is nothing whatever like unto Him, 3 that you must not obey me in this. If, God forbid, I find fault in prophethood then do not heed what I say. And if I find fault in the Holy Qur’an, I swear by God you must disobey me. If I speak against the divinely inspired teachings of the Promised Messiah as then reject me in this. But I say 3 Surah Ash-Shura , 42:12 [Publishers]
