Al-Ma'idah 5:12 ۞ ولقد اخذ الله ميثاق بني اسراييل وبعثنا منهم اثني عشر نقيبا وقال الله اني معكم لين اقمتم الصلاة واتيتم الزكاة وامنتم برسلي وعزرتموهم واقرضتم الله قرضا حسنا لاكفرن عنكم سيياتكم ولادخلنكم جنات تجري من تحتها الانهار فمن كفر بعد ذالك منكم فقد ضل سواء السبيل ١٢

Allah made a covenant with the Children of Israel and appointed twelve leaders from among them and ˹then˺ said, “I am truly with you. If you establish prayer, pay alms-tax, believe in My messengers, support them, and lend to Allah a good loan, I will certainly forgive your sins and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow. And whoever among you disbelieves afterwards has truly strayed from the Right Way.”
