he has sent down this book which contains some verses that are categorical and basic to the book and others allegorical. but those who are twisted of mind look for verses metaphorical seeking deviation and giving to them interpretations of their own but none knows their meaning except god and those who are steeped in knowledge affirm we believe in them as all of them are from the lord. but only those who have wisdom understand.
هو الذي أنزل عليك الكتاب منه آيات محكمات هن أم الكتاب وأخر متشابهات فأما الذين في قلوبهم زيغ فيتبعون ما تشابه منه ابتغاء الفتنة وابتغاء تأويله وما يعلم تأويله إلا الله والراسخون في العلم يقولون آمنا به كل من عند ربنا وما يذكر إلا أولو الألباب
