لَمۡ یَکُنِ الَّذِیۡنَ کَفَرُوۡا مِنۡ اَہۡلِ الۡکِتٰبِ وَالۡمُشۡرِکِیۡنَ مُنۡفَکِّیۡنَ حَتّٰی تَاۡتِیَہُمُ الۡبَیِّنَۃُ ۙ﴿۲﴾
Those who disbelieve from among the People of the Book and the idolaters would not desist from disbelief until there came to them the clear evidence —رَسُوۡلٌ مِّنَ اللّٰہِ یَتۡلُوۡا صُحُفًا مُّطَہَّرَۃً ۙ﴿۳﴾
[✲]A Messenger from Allah, reciting unto them the pure Scriptures.فِیۡہَا کُتُبٌ قَیِّمَۃٌ ؕ﴿۴﴾
[✲]Therein are lasting commandments.وَمَا تَفَرَّقَ الَّذِیۡنَ اُوۡتُوا الۡکِتٰبَ اِلَّا مِنۡۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَتۡہُمُ الۡبَیِّنَۃُ ؕ﴿۵﴾
And those to whom the Book was given did not become divided until after clear evidence had come to them.وَمَاۤ اُمِرُوۡۤا اِلَّا لِیَعۡبُدُوا اللّٰہَ مُخۡلِصِیۡنَ لَہُ الدِّیۡنَ ۬ۙ حُنَفَآءَ وَیُقِیۡمُوا الصَّلٰوۃَ وَیُؤۡتُوا الزَّکٰوۃَ وَذٰلِکَ دِیۡنُ الۡقَیِّمَۃِ ؕ﴿۶﴾
And they were not commanded but to serve Allah, being sincere to Him in obedience, and being upright, and to observe Prayer, and pay the Zakat. And that is the religion of the people of the right path.اِنَّ الَّذِیۡنَ کَفَرُوۡا مِنۡ اَہۡلِ الۡکِتٰبِ وَالۡمُشۡرِکِیۡنَ فِیۡ نَارِ جَہَنَّمَ خٰلِدِیۡنَ فِیۡہَا ؕ اُولٰٓئِکَ ہُمۡ شَرُّ الۡبَرِیَّۃِ ؕ﴿۷﴾
Verily, those who disbelieve from among the People of the Book and the idolaters will be in the Fire of Hell, abiding therein. They are the worst of creatures.اِنَّ الَّذِیۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ ۙ اُولٰٓئِکَ ہُمۡ خَیۡرُ الۡبَرِیَّۃِ ؕ﴿۸﴾
Verily, those who believe and do good works — they are the best of creatures.جَزَآؤُہُمۡ عِنۡدَ رَبِّہِمۡ جَنّٰتُ عَدۡنٍ تَجۡرِیۡ مِنۡ تَحۡتِہَا الۡاَنۡہٰرُ خٰلِدِیۡنَ فِیۡہَاۤ اَبَدًا ؕ رَضِیَ اللّٰہُ عَنۡہُمۡ وَرَضُوۡا عَنۡہُ ؕ ذٰلِکَ لِمَنۡ خَشِیَ رَبَّہٗ ﴿٪۹﴾
Their reward is with their Lord — Gardens of Eternity, through which streams flow; they will abide therein for ever. Allah is well pleased with them, and they are well pleased with Him. That is for him who fears his Lord.
