And argue not with the people of the Scripture (Jews and
Christians), unless it be in (a way) that is better (with good words and in
good manner, inviting them to Islâmic Monotheism with His Verses), except with
such of them as do wrong, and say (to them): "We believe in that which has
been revealed to us and revealed to you; our Ilâh (God) and your Ilâh (God) is
One (i.e. Allâh), and to Him we have submitted (as Muslims)." (46) And thus We have sent
down the Book (i.e this Qur'an) to you (O Muhammad SAW), and those whom We gave
the Scripture [the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) aforetime] believe
therein as also do some of these (who are present with you now like 'Abdullâh
bin Salâm)[] and none but the disbelievers reject Our Ayât [(proofs, signs,
verses, lessons, etc.), and deny Our Oneness of Lordship and Our Oneness of
worship and Our Oneness of Our Names and Qualities: i.e. Islâmic Monotheism] (47) Neither did you (O
Muhammad SAW) read any book before it (this Qur'ân), nor did you write any book
(whatsoever) with your right hand. In that case, indeed, the followers of
falsehood might have doubted. (48) Nay, but they, the clear Ayât [i.e the
description and the qualities of Prophet Muhammad SAW written in the Taurât
(Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] are preserved in the breasts of those who have
been given knowledge (among the people of the Scriptures). And none but the
Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrongdoers) deny Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses,
lessons, signs, revelations, etc.).[] (49) And they say: "Why are not signs
sent down to him from his Lord? Say: "The signs are only with Allâh, and I
am only a plain warner." (50) Is it not sufficient for them that We have sent down to you the Book (the Qur'ân) which is recited
to them? Verily, herein is mercy and a reminder (or an admonition) for a people
who believe.[] (51) Say (to them O Muhammad SAW):
"Sufficient is Allâh for a witness between me and you. He knows what is in
the heavens and on earth." And those who believe in Bâtil (all false
deities other than Allâh), and disbelieve in Allâh and (in His Oneness), it is
they who are the losers. (52)
