4:80

مَّن يُطِعِ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَقَدْ أَطَاعَ ٱللَّهَ ۖ وَمَن تَوَلَّىٰ فَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَـٰكَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَفِيظًا

man yuṭiʿi l-rasūla faqad aṭāʿa l-laha waman tawallā famā arsalnāka ʿalayhim ḥafīẓan

He who obeys the Messenger has obeyed Allāh; but those who turn away - We have not sent you over them as a guardian.

— Saheeh International

Whoever obeys the Messenger obeys God. If some pay no heed, We have not sent you to be their keeper.

— M. A. S. Abdel Haleem

He who obeys the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), has indeed obeyed Allâh, but he who turns away, then we have not sent you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) as a watcher over them.

— Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
