 in that they broke their covenant that they rejected the signs of allah that they slew the messengers in defiance of right that they said our hearts are the wrappings nay allah hath set the seal on their hearts for their blasphemy and little is it they believe that they rejected faith that they uttered against mary a grave false charge that they said we killed christ jesus the son of mary the messenger of allah but they killed him not nor crucified him but so it was made to appear to them and those who differ therein are full of doubts with no knowledge but only conjecture to follow for of a surety they killed him not nay allah raised him up unto himself and allah is exalted in power wise and there is none of the people of the book but must believe in him before his death and on the day of judgment he will be a witness against them for the iniquity of the jews we made unlawful for them certain good and wholesome which had been lawful for them in that they hindered many from allahs way that they took usury though they were forbidden and that they devoured mens substance wrongfully we have prepared for those among them who reject faith a grievous punishment.
فبما نقضهم ميثاقهم وكفرهم بآيات الله وقتلهم الأنبياء بغير حق وقولهم قلوبنا غلف بل طبع الله عليها بكفرهم فلا يؤمنون إلا قليلا وبكفرهم وقولهم على مريم بهتانا عظيما وقولهم إنا قتلنا المسيح عيسى ابن مريم رسول الله وما قتلوه وما صلبوه ولكن شبه لهم وإن الذين اختلفوا فيه لفي شك منه ما لهم به من علم إلا اتباع الظن وما قتلوه يقينا بل رفعه الله إليه وكان الله عزيزا حكيما وإن من أهل الكتاب إلا ليؤمنن به قبل موته ويوم القيامة يكون عليهم شهيدا فبظلم من الذين هادوا حرمنا عليهم طيبات أحلت لهم وبصدهم عن سبيل الله كثيرا وأخذهم الربا وقد نهوا عنه وأكلهم أموال الناس بالباطل وأعتدنا للكافرين منهم عذابا أليما
