English Translation of Al-Quran
[23].Surah Al-Muminun [The Believers]
Ayat 23. And indeed Allah sent Nuh PBUH (Noah) to his people, and he said: "O my people! Worship Allah! You have no other Ilah (God) but Him (Islamic Monotheism). Will you not then be afraid (of Him i.e. of His Punishment because of worshipping others besides Him)?"
Ayat 24. But the chiefs of those who disbelieved among his people said: "He is no more than a human being like you, he seeks to make himself superior to you. Had Allah willed, He surely could have sent down angels; never did we hear such a thing among our fathers of old.
Ayat 25. "He is only a man in whom is madness, so wait for him a while."
[Tafseer] of Ayat 23. (Further, We sent a long line of prophets for your instruction). Allah sent Noah PBUH to his people: He said, "O my people! worship Allah. Ye have no other god but Him. Will ye not fear (Him)?" The material gifts having been mentioned, which we receive from a wise and kindly Providence, our attention is now directed to Allah's Providence in spiritual matters. He sent Teachers to instruct and guide us, and though they were mocked, rejected, and accused of falsehood and selfishness, they were protected by Allah, and Allah's Truth at length prevailed. "People" here is almost equivalent to "contemporaries". To fear Allah is to lead righteous lives and eschew evil. in Ayat 24. The chiefs of the Unbelievers among his people said: "He is no more than a man like yourselves: his wish is to assert his superiority over you: if Allah had wished (to send messengers), He could have sent down angels; never did we hear such a thing (as he says), among our ancestors of old." They attribute altogether wrong motives to him (such as they would have actuated themselves), in saying that he was trying to establish his own personal superiority over them by his preaching. Then they accuse him of falsehood in claiming to bring a message of Allah. "If, they say, "Allah had wished to send us messengers, He would have sent angels, not a man like ourselves and from among ourselves. Our ancestors did not worship One God: why should we?" in ayat 25. Tafseer (And some said): "He is only a man possessed: wait (and have patience) with him for a time." I construe this to be a speech of another group among them. They thought he was mad, and best left alone. His madness would run out, or he would come to an evil end.
Hazrat Abu Abdur Rehman Auf bin Malik Al-Ashjai (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Seven, eight or nine people, including myself, were with Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) on an occasion when he [SAWW](PBUH) remarked, "Would you pledge allegiance to Messenger of Allah?'' As we had taken oath of allegiance shortly before, we said, "We have already done so, O Messenger of Allah.'' He again asked, "Would you not pledge allegiance to Messenger of Allah?'' So we stretched out our hands and said, "We have already made our pledge with you, O Messenger of Allah, on what should we make a pledge with you?'' He said, "To worship Allah and not to associate anything with Him, to perform the five (daily) Salat and to obey.'' Then he added in a low tone, "And not to ask people for anything.'' Thereafter, I noticed that some of these people who were present did not ask anyone to pick up any thing for them if it fell from their hands.
[Muslim Book 05, Chapter 33, Hadith # 2270]
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Muminun Ayat 23."people! Worship Allah! You have no other Ilah (God) but Him" Herein we find an approval of renewing the oath of loyalty; besides, there is also a ground for administering such oath in respect of the obedience and worship of Allah, and decent behaviour. What is more, we are also under obligation to observe all that the oath of fealty stands for.
