A look at the verse
1- Islam has outward acts of worship and others that are dogmatic, and the last of them is transactional. After you have seen the picture, what is your view on which is more ritualistic or transactional worship?
2- Everything has an essence, a middle, and an axis around which everything revolves. In this verse, God Almighty says to you, “Do not look at the formalities( East or West), but rather at the essence, the spirit, and the axis around which Islam revolves, Or even you are an astronaut, so you live on other planets, wherever you are, follow the orders in this verse, you will be among the believers, those whom God - the Almighty - described as truthfulness, since truthfulness is not only words, but actions
3- It is called in the hadeeth (charity is a proof), that is, a proof of faith, and money is called money because it tend with its owner to the side of his whims or what pleases God, and he calls the dinar: dinar because it is religion or fire.
4 - Those who fulfill their covenant: On the authority of Abu Saeed, on the authority of the Prophet - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - he said: For every treacherous person there is a banner at his will on the Day of Resurrection, and in a narration: For every traitor, a banner will be raised for him on the Day of Resurrection to the extent of his treachery, there is no treachery greater than the prince of the publics. narrated by Muslim .
and God is superior and knows best.

And my patient brother mentioned 3 things: (every bitterness will pass) and (the reward of the patient without reckoning) and (tomorrow the calamity will depart to the abode of punishment, and God will tell of your patience, so do not make it alarmed)
So: The noble verse demands 10 commands from you, if you do them, you will be among the truthful and pious before God. Other than that, this is just a formality that we are Muslims
The question will be asked here: What do I benefit from honesty? And what do I benefit from piety?
The answer is very long, but we will suffice with some of them:
The reward for honesty
1- We will be gathered with the prophets and the martyrs, and they are good companions, because the truthful: is the exaggeration of honesty, or inherent truthfulness in word and deed.
As for the reward of the pious
1- The way out of distress and crises (and whoever pious Allah, He will make a way out for him)
2- Knowledge (pious God and God will learning you)
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡقِصَاصُ فِي ٱلۡقَتۡلَىۖ ٱلۡحُرُّ بِٱلۡحُرِّ وَٱلۡعَبۡدُ بِٱلۡعَبۡدِ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰ بِٱلۡأُنثَىٰۚ فَمَنۡ عُفِيَ لَهُۥ مِنۡ أَخِيهِ شَيۡءٞ فَٱتِّبَاعُۢ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَأَدَآءٌ إِلَيۡهِ بِإِحۡسَٰنٖۗ ذَٰلِكَ تَخۡفِيفٞ مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ وَرَحۡمَةٞۗ فَمَنِ ٱعۡتَدَىٰ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَلَهُۥ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٞ (178)
O you who have believed, retaliation for the slain is prescribed for you, the free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female, so whoever has a pardon from his brother, something so follow it with kindness and perform it with benevolence, this is an alleviation from your Lord and mercy, so whoever transgresses after that will have a painful chastisement (178)
The verse was revealed
There were two parties that fought at the time of the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, so they killed each other, so the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, ordered to reconcile between them, that the blood money of the women of one of the two parties be waived of the blood money of the women of the other, The blood money of their men is the blood money of their men, and the blood money of their slaves is the blood money of their slaves, retribution, so they have the meaning of retribution in this verse.
On the authority of Ibn Abbas said
There was retaliation for the Children of Israel for killing, and there was no blood-money for a person or wound among them, and that is what God said: {And We wrote for them therein that life for life and eye for eye} the whole verse. May God ease the nation of Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, , He accepted blood money from them in life and in wounds.
وَلَكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡقِصَاصِ حَيَوٰةٞ يَٰٓأُوْلِي ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ (179)
And you have life in retaliation. O people of reason, that you may become pious (179)
That is, injecting with that blood, and suppressing the wretched with it, because whoever knows that he has been killed when he is killed, it is unlikely that he will be killed, and if the murderer was seen killed, others would be terrified and resentful, and if the murderer's punishment was other than murder, then the evil that occurs by killing would not be avoided, and so are the rest of the legal punishments, in which there is resentment, which indicates the wisdom of the All-Wise, the Forgiving.
And mentioned the life" to benefit from glorification and abundance.
"that you may become righteous"
This is because whoever knows his Lord and knows what is in his religion and law of great secrets, wonderful wisdom, and lofty verses, this obliges him to submit to God's command, and to magnify his sins, so he leaves them, so he deserves to be among the righteous.
كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ إِن تَرَكَ خَيۡرًا ٱلۡوَصِيَّةُ لِلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ وَٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِۖ حَقًّا عَلَى ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ (180)
Ordained for you when death comes to any of you, if he left money the will, to parents and to those closest to you, with kindness, a right upon the pious (180)
The will is a right for every Muslim? He said: It is the right of those who leave good
On the authority of Ibn Abbas
“If he leaves out good,” it means money
About laughter he used to say
Who died and did not recommend to his relatives. He ended his work with sin
About Al Duhak said
It is not permissible to make a bequest to an heir, and he may only bequeath to a relative, If he bequeathed to a non-relative, then he has committed a sin, except that he is not a relative, so he will bequeath to the poor Muslims.
On the authority of Hisham bin Urwa, on the authority of his father, he said
Ali enters upon a freed slave of theirs who is in death and has seven hundred dirhams, or six hundred dirhams, and he said: Shall I make a bequest? He said: No! God only said: "If he leaves it is good," and you do not have much money.
Some of them said
That is between five hundred dirhams to a thousand
فَمَنۢ بَدَّلَهُۥ بَعۡدَ مَا سَمِعَهُۥ فَإِنَّمَآ إِثۡمُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُبَدِّلُونَهُۥٓۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٞ (181
So whoever changed it after he had heard it, Its sin is only on those who change it. Indeed, Allah is the Hearing, the Knowing (181).
Abu Jaafar said
“God is All-Hearing” = to your commandment that I commanded you to recommend to your fathers, mothers, and relatives when you recommend it, do you act justly in it according to what I have authorized you to do that with kindness, or do you deviate so you deviate from the truth and you deviate from the intention? “Knowing” of what your chests hide from the inclination to truth and justice, or injustice and unfairness.
