15. The (true) believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Messenger, then do not doubt [25], and strive with their wealth and their lives in the way of Allah. It is they who are the truthful.
[25] In this verse, by presenting a comparison between the believers and the hypocrites, it is explained that true believers have complete faith in Allah, His promises, and His Messenger. They are not self-interested; therefore, whatever Allah and His Messenger command, they obey immediately and, when necessary, even sacrifice their lives and wealth. Unlike the hypocrites, they do not seek excuses or ways to escape. Such people are the truthful ones.
