إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ عَٰهَدتُّم مِّنَ ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَنقُصُوكُمْ شَيْـًۭٔا وَلَمْ يُظَٰهِرُوا۟ عَلَيْكُمْ أَحَدًۭا فَأَتِمُّوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِمْ عَهْدَهُمْ إِلَىٰ مُدَّتِهِمْ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ

سُورَةُ التَّوۡبَةِ
English — Sahih International
Excepted are those with whom you made a treaty among the polytheists and then they have not been deficient toward you in anything or supported anyone against you; so complete for them their treaty until their term [has ended]. Indeed, Allah loves the righteous [who fear Him].
اردو — مودودی
بجز اُن مشرکین کے جن سے تم نے معاہد ے کیے پھر انہوں نے اپنے عہد کو پورا کرنے میں تمہارے ساتھ کوئی کمی نہیں کی اور نہ تمہارے خلاف کسی کی مدد کی، تو ایسے لوگوں کے ساتھ تم بھی مدت معاہدہ تک وفا کرو کیونکہ اللہ متقیوں ہی کو پسند کرتا ہے
Bahasa Indonesia — Kemenag
kecuali orang-orang musyrikin yang kamu telah mengadakan perjanjian (dengan mereka) dan mereka tidak mengurangi sesuatu pun (dari isi perjanjian)mu dan tidak (pula) mereka membantu seseorang yang memusuhi kamu, maka terhadap mereka itu penuhilah janjinya sampai batas waktunya. Sesungguhnya Allah menyukai orang-orang yang bertakwa.
Ibn Kathir
Existing Peace Treaties remained valid until the End of Their Term
This is an exception regulating the longest extent of time for those who have a general treaty - with out time mentioned - to four months. They would have four months to travel the lands in search of sanctuary for themselves wherever they wish. Those whose treaty mentioned a specifec limited term, then the longest it would extend was to the point of its agreed upon termination date. Hadiths in this regard preceeded. So anyone who had a treaty with Allah's Messenger ﷺ, it lasted until its specific termination date. However, those in this category were required to refrain from breaking the terms of the agreement with Muslims and from helping non-Muslims against Muslims. This is the type whose peace agreement with Muslims was carried out to its end. Allah encouraged honoring such peace treaties, saying,
إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُتَّقِينَ
(Surely, Allah loves those who have Taqwa) 9:4, who keep their promises.

ويُستثنى من الحكم السابق المشركون الذين دخلوا معكم في عهد محدد بمدة، ولم يخونوا العهد، ولم يعاونوا عليكم أحدا من الأعداء، فأكملوا لهم عهدهم إلى نهايته المحدودة. إن الله يحب المتقين الذين أدَّوا ما أمروا به، واتقوا الشرك والخيانة، وغير ذلك من المعاصي.
