(Saying) We feed you for the sake of Allah alone: no reward do we desire from you, nor thanks." (Qur'an 76:8,9). Additionally, He says, "Their flesh and their blood reach not Allah, but the devotion from you reaches Him. Thus have We made them subject unto you that ye may magnify Allah that He hath guided you.
