005.059 Y:  Say:  “O people of the Book!  Do ye disapprove of us for no other reason than that we believe in Allah, and the revelation that hath come to us and that which came before (us), and (perhaps) that most of you are rebellious and disobedient?”

P:  Say:  O People of the Scripture!  Do ye blame us for aught else than that we believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed aforetime, and because most of you are evil-livers?

S:  Say:  O followers of the Book! do you find fault with us (for aught) except that we believe in Allah and in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed before, and that most of you are transgressors?

005.060 Y:  Say:  “Shall I point out to you something much worse than this, (as judged) by the treatment it received from Allah? those who incurred the curse of Allah and His wrath, those of whom some He transformed into apes and swine, those who worshipped evil;- these are (many times) worse in rank, and far more astray from the even path!”

P:  Shall I tell thee of a worse (case) than theirs for retribution with Allah? (Worse is the case of him) whom Allah hath cursed, him on whom His wrath hath fallen and of whose sort Allah hath turned some to apes and swine, and who serveth idols.  Such are in worse plight and further astray from the plain road.

S:  Say:  Shall I inform you of (him who is) worse than this in retribution from Allah? (Worse is he) whom Allah has cursed and brought His wrath upon, and of whom He made apes and swine, and he who served the Shaitan; these are worse in place and more erring from the straight path.

005.061 Y:  When they come to thee, they say:  “We believe”:  but in fact they enter with a mind against Faith, and they go out with the same but Allah knoweth fully all that they hide.

P:  When they come unto you (Muslims), they say:  We believe; but they came in unbelief and they went out in the same; and Allah knoweth best what they were hiding.

S:  And when they come to you, they say:  We believe; and indeed they come in with unbelief and indeed they go forth with it; and Allah knows best what they concealed.

005.062 Y:  Many of them dost thou see, racing each other in sin and rancour, and their eating of things forbidden.  Evil indeed are the things that they do.

P:  And thou seest many of them vying one with another in sin and transgression and their devouring of illicit gain.  Verily evil is what they do.

S:  And you will see many of them striving with one another to hasten in sin and exceeding the limits, and their eating of what is unlawfully acquired; certainly evil is that which they do.

005.063 Y:  Why do not the rabbis and the doctors of Law forbid them from their (habit of) uttering sinful words and eating things forbidden?  Evil indeed are their works.

P:  Why do not the rabbis and the priests forbid their evil-speaking and their devouring of illicit gain?  Verily evil is their handiwork.
