mankind were one community and allah sent prophets as bearers of good tidings and as warners and revealed therewith the scripture with the truth that it might judge between mankind concerning that wherein they differed. and only those unto whom was given differed concerning it after clear proofs had come unto them through hatred one of another. and allah by his will guided those who believe unto the truth of that concerning which they differed. allah guideth whom he will unto a straight path.
كان الناس أمة واحدة فبعث الله النبيين مبشرين ومنذرين وأنزل معهم الكتاب بالحق ليحكم بين الناس فيما اختلفوا فيه وما اختلف فيه إلا الذين أوتوه من بعد ما جاءتهم البينات بغيا بينهم فهدى الله الذين آمنوا لما اختلفوا فيه من الحق بإذنه والله يهدي من يشاء إلى صراط مستقيم
