The believers, both men and women, are guardians of one another. They encourage good and forbid evil, establish prayer and pay alms-tax, and obey Allah and His Messenger. It is they who will be shown Allah’s mercy. Surely Allah is Almighty, All-Wise. Allah has promised the believers, both men and women, Gardens under which rivers flow, to stay there forever, and splendid homes in the Gardens of Eternity, and—above all—the pleasure of Allah. That is ˹truly˺ the ultimate triumph. Quran 9:71~72
The name of the surah, at-Taubah is derived from ت و ب and it occurs 87 times in the Quran. Interestingly, this surah has the highest usage of the words derived from ت و ب compared to all other surahs – it is used 17 times.
In Ayat 118, occurs the case of the three companions whom Allah turned to and accepted their tawbah to Him – those who had abstained from joining the Jihad at the Battle of Tabuk.

وَٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَتُ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ بَعْضٍۢ ۚ يَأْمُرُونَ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ ٱلْمُنكَرِ وَيُقِيمُونَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَيُطِيعُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥٓ ۚ أُو۟لَٓئِكَ سَيَرْحَمُهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌۭ ‎ ‏وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَتِ جَنَّتٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَرُ خَلِدِينَ فِيهَا وَمَسَكِنَ طَيِّبَةًۭ فِى جَنَّتِ عَدْنٍۢ ۚ وَرِضْوَنٌۭ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ ۚ ذَلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ
This is the only Sūrah of the Qur’ān to which ‘In the Name of God, Most Gracious Most Merciful’ is not prefixed. Though the commentators have given different reasons for this, the correct one that which has been given by Imām Razi: namely this is because the Prophet himself did not dictate it at the beginning of the Sūrah. Therefore the Companions did not prefix it and their successors followed them. This is a further proof of the fact that utmost care has been taken to keep the Qur’ān intact so that it should remain in its complete and original form.
اور مومن مرد اور مومن عورتیں ایک دوسرے کے دوست ہیں کہ اچھے کام کرنے کو کہتے ہیں اور بری باتوں سے منع کرتے اور نماز پڑھتے اور زکوٰة دیتے اور خدا اور اس کے رسول کی اطاعت کرتے ہیں۔ یہی لوگ ہیں جن پر خدا رحم کرے گا۔ بےشک خدا غالب حکمت والا ہے خدا نے مومن مردوں اور مومن عورتوں سے بہشتوں کا وعدہ کیا ہے جن کے نیچے نہریں بہہ رہی ہیں (وہ) ان میں ہمیشہ رہیں گے اور بہشت ہائے جاودانی میں نفیس مکانات کا (وعدہ کیا ہے) اور خدا کی رضا مندی تو سب سے بڑھ کر نعمت ہے یہی بڑی کامیابی ہے
