✅ Allah Rewards Even a Word of Sincere Faith [239]

This verse shows that Allah accepts even the smallest good, if done sincerely. The Abyssinian deputation was forgiven for just one truthful reply in faith. Their words earned them Paradise and eternal reward. It teaches that even a single sincere utterance can become the cause of complete forgiveness. May Allah grant us pardon by their blessing.
