The Creator of the heavens and the earth. He has made for you
mates from yourselves, and for the cattle (also) mates. By this means He
creates you (in the wombs). There is nothing like Him, and He is the
All-Hearer, the All-Seer. (11) To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the
earth, He enlarges provision for whom He wills, and straitens (it for whom He
wills). Verily! He is the All-Knower of everything. (12) He (Allâh) has
ordained for you the same religion (Islâmic Monothesim) which He ordained for
Nûh (Noah), and that which We have revealed to you (O Muhammad SAW), and that
which We ordained for Ibrahîm (Abraham), Mûsa (Moses) and 'Īsā
(Jesus) saying you should establish religion (i.e. to do what it orders you to
do practically), and make no divisions[] in it (religion) (i.e. various sects
in religion). Intolerable for the Mushrikûn[] , is that (Islâmic Monothesim) to
which you (O Muhammad SAW) call them. Allâh chooses for Himself whom He wills,
and guides unto Himself who turns to Him in repentance and in obedience. (13) And they divided not
till after knowledge had come to them, through (selfish) transgression between
themselves. And had it not been for a Word that went forth before from your
Lord for an appointed term, the matter would have been settled between them.
And verily, those who were made to inherit the Scripture [i.e. the Taurâh
(Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] after them (i.e. Jews and Christians) are in
grave doubt concerning it (i.e. Allâh's true religion — Islâm or the Qur'ân). (14) So unto this
(religion of Islâm alone and this Qur’ân) then invite (people) (O Muhammad
SAW), and stand firm [on Islâmic Monotheism by performing all that is ordained
by Allâh (good deeds), and by abstaining from all that is forbidden by Allâh
(sins and evil deeds)], as you are commanded, and follow not their desires but
say: "I believe in whatsoever Allâh has sent down of the Book [all the
holy Books, - this Qur’ân and the Books of the old from the Taurât (Torah), or
the Injeel (Gospel) or the Pages of Ibrâhîm (Abraham)] and I am commanded to do
justice among you. Allâh is our Lord and your Lord. For us our deeds and for
you your deeds. There is no dispute between us and you. Allâh will assemble us
(all), and to Him is the final return." (15)
