:1. Those who reject (Truth), among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists, were not going to depart (from their ways) until there should come to them Clear Evidence,-
:2. An messenger from Allah, rehearsing scriptures kept pure and holy:
:3. Wherein are laws (or decrees) right and straight.
:4. Nor did the People of the Book make schisms, until after there came to them Clear Evidence.
:5. And they have been commanded no more than this: To worship Allah, offering Him sincere devotion, being true (in faith); to establish regular prayer; and to practise regular charity; and that is the Religion Right and Straight.
:6. Those who reject (Truth), among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists, will be in Hell-Fire, to dwell therein (for aye). They are the worst of creatures.
:7. Those who have faith and do righteous deeds,- they are the best of creatures.
