Salaam all,


8:74
وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ وَهَاجَرُواْ وَجَاهَدُواْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللّهِ وَالَّذِينَ آوَواْ وَّنَصَرُواْ أُولَـئِكَ هُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ حَقًّا لَّهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَرِيمٌ
Waallatheena amanoo wahajaroo wajahadoo fee sabeeli Allahi waallatheena awaw wanasaroo olaika humu almuminoona haqqan lahum maghfiratun warizqun kareemun
The Aya says:
And those who attained faith and migrated and struggled in Allah’s path and the ones who gave shelter and support, those are the faithful truly. To them belongs protective covering and generous provisions.
My personal note:
The term faithful truly or faithful in truth should not be understood that others are false believers. It is understood by scholars that those have reached a high level of Iman, which occurs in grades rather than being a yes or no and therefore their high grade of faith is acknowledged and is accepted. So this does not negate faith from others who did not do the same but makes their degree of faith at a lesser level or their faith may need more work to rise up to that standard. Indeed the two groups that are being talked about and those are the early muslim followers of the prophet in Mecca and the ones that sheltered them in Medina are considered the best faithful of all the muslims.
