How constant are they in their strife
to reach the Fire!
S: These are they who buy error for the right direction and chastisement
for forgiveness; how bold they are to encounter fire.

Y: (Their doom is) because Allah sent down the Book in truth but those
who seek causes of dispute in the Book are in a schism Far (from the
purpose).
P: That is because Allah hath revealed the Scripture with the truth. Lo!
those who find (a cause of) disagreement in the Scripture are in open
schism.
S: This is because Allah has revealed the Book with the truth; and
surely those who go against the Book are in a great opposition.

Y: It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West;
but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the
Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance,
out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the
wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be
steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the
contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or
suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are
the people of truth, the Allah-fearing.
P: It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces to the East and the
West; but righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and
the angels and the Scripture and the prophets; and giveth wealth, for
love of Him, to kinsfolk and to orphans and the needy and the wayfarer
and to those who ask, and to set slaves free; and observeth proper
worship and payeth the poor-due.
