Sura XCVIII (98)
Clear Evidence
(
________________________________________
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
The
unbelievers among the people of the Book, and the Polytheists, did not waver,
until the Clear Evidence had come to them;
A
messenger from God, reciting to them the pure pages wherein are true
Scriptures!
Neither
were they to whom the Scriptures were given divided into sects, till after this
clear evidence had reached them!
Yet
was not aught enjoined on them but to worship God with sincere religion, sound
in faith; and to observe prayer and pay the stated alms. For this is true
religion.
But
the unbelievers among the people of the Book, and among the Polytheists, shall
go into the fire of Gehenna to abide therein for aye. Of all creatures are they
the worst!
But
they who believe and do the things that are right -- these of all creatures are
the best!
Their
recompense with their Lord shall be gardens of
God is
well pleased in them and they in Him! This, for him who feareth his Lord.
