Party of Allah

حِزْبُ اللَّه

The concept of the "Party of Allah" (حِزْبُ اللَّه) holds a profound spiritual significance in Islam, representing those individuals whose hearts are truly aligned with divine will. It refers not to an earthly political faction, but to a community of sincere believers in [Allah and the Last Day]. Their defining characteristic is an unwavering loyalty to Allah and His Messenger, to the extent that they [show no affection for those who oppose Allah and His Messenger], even if they are their closest relatives. This demonstrates a profound commitment that transcends worldly ties. Within the hearts of these devoted individuals, Allah has [decreed faith] and supported them with a spirit from Him. This divine favor empowers them to stand firm in their convictions. The Quran promises that [they will be the predominant] and the ultimately [successful] ones. Their reward is not just victory in this life, but eternal gardens where Allah is pleased with them, and they are pleased with Him. Thus, being part of the "Party of Allah" signifies a deep spiritual connection, an unshakeable faith, and a divinely assured triumph.

Quran 2 verses

وَمَن يَتَوَلَّ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ فَإِنَّ حِزْبَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْغَٰلِبُونَ

Wa mai yatawallal laaha wa Rasoolahoo wallazeena aamanoo fa inna hizbal laahi humul ghaaliboon

And whoever is an ally of Allah and His Messenger and those who have believed - indeed, the party of Allah - they will be the predominant.

اور جو شخص خدا اور اس کے پیغمبر اور مومنوں سے دوستی کرے گا تو (وہ خدا کی جماعت میں داخل ہوگا اور) خدا کی جماعت ہی غلبہ پانے والی ہے

Tafsir al-Jalalayn: Whoever affiliates to God and His Messenger and the believers He will help them and assist them; for verily the party of God they are the victors because of His assistance to them He has made this hizb Allāh ‘the party of God’ to fall in the place of an implied fa-innahum ‘for verily they’ as an exp...
Tafsir Ibn Kathir (English): Threatening to Replace the Believers With Another People if They Revert from Islam Allah emphasizes His mighty ability and states that whoever reverts from supporting His religion and establishing His Law, then Allah will replace them with whomever is better, mightier and more righteous in Allah's r...

لَّا تَجِدُ قَوْمًا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ يُوَآدُّونَ مَنْ حَآدَّ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَلَوْ كَانُوٓا۟ ءَابَآءَهُمْ أَوْ أَبْنَآءَهُمْ أَوْ إِخْوَٰنَهُمْ أَوْ عَشِيرَتَهُمْ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ كَتَبَ فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلْإِيمَٰنَ وَأَيَّدَهُم بِرُوحٍ مِّنْهُ وَيُدْخِلُهُمْ جَنَّٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا رَضِىَ ٱللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا۟ عَنْهُ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ حِزْبُ ٱللَّهِ أَلَآ إِنَّ حِزْبَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ

Laa tajidu qawmany yu'minoona billaahi wal yawmil aakhiri yuwaaaddoona man haaaddal laaha wa Rasoolahoo wa law kaanooo aabaaa'ahum aw abnaaa'ahum aw ikhwaa nahum aw 'asheeratahum; ulaaa'ika kataba fee quloobihi mul eemaana wa ayyadahum biroohimminhu wa yudkhilu hum jannatin tajree min tahtihal anhaaru khaalideena feehaa; radiyal laahu 'anhum wa radoo 'anh; ulaaa 'ika hizbul laah; alaaa inna hizbal laahi humul muflihoon

You will not find a people who believe in Allah and the Last Day having affection for those who oppose Allah and His Messenger, even if they were their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their kindred. Those - He has decreed within their hearts faith and supported them with spirit from Him. And We will admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally. Allah is pleased with them, and they are pleased with Him - those are the party of Allah. Unquestionably, the party of Allah - they are the successful.

جو لوگ خدا پر اور روز قیامت پر ایمان رکھتے ہیں تم ان کو خدا اور اس کے رسول کے دشمنوں سے دوستی کرتے ہوئے نہ دیکھو گے۔ خواہ وہ ان کے باپ یا بیٹے یا بھائی یا خاندان ہی کے لوگ ہوں۔ یہ وہ لوگ ہیں جن کے دلوں میں خدا نے ایمان (پتھر پر لکیر کی طرح) تحریر کردیا ہے اور فیض غیبی سے ان کی مدد کی ہے۔ اور وہ ان کو بہشتوں میں جن کے تلے نہریں بہہ رہی ہیں داخل کرے گا ہمیشہ ان میں رہیں گے۔ خدا ان سے خوش اور وہ خدا سے خوش۔ یہی گروہ خدا کا لشکر ہے۔ (اور) سن رکھو کہ خدا ہی کا لشکر مراد حاصل کرنے والا ہے
