The Evidence
  1. The unbelievers of the People of the Book and the idolaters would never leave off; till the Clear Sign came to them,
  2. a Messenger from God, reciting pages purified,
  3. therein true Books.
  4. And they scattered not, those that were given the Book, excepting after the Clear Sign came to them.
  5. They were commanded only to serve God, making the religion His sincerely, men of pure faith, and to perform the prayer, and pay the alms -- that is the religion of the True.
  6. The unbelievers of the People of the Book and the idolaters shall be in the Fire of Gehenna, therein dwelling forever; those are the worst of creatures.
  7. But those who believe, and do righteous deeds, those are the best of creatures;
  8. their recompense is with their Lord-Gardens of Eden, underneath which rivers flow, therein dwelling for ever and ever. God is well-pleased with them, and they are well-pleased with Him; that is for him who fears his Lord.
