کَانَ النَّاسُ أُمَّةً وَاحِدَهً فَبَعَثَ اللهُ النَّبِیِّنَ مُبَشِّرِینَ وَمُنذِرِینَ وَ أَنزَلَ مَعَهُمُ الْکِتَـابَ بِالْحَقِّ لِیَحْکُمَ بَیْنَ النَّاسِ فِیَما اخْتَلَفُواْ فِیهِ وَمَا اخْتَلَفَ فِیهِ إِلاَّ الَّذِینَ أُوتُوهُ مِن بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُمُ الْبَیِّنَـاتُ بَغْیَاً بَیْنَهُمْ فَهَدَى اللهُ الَّذِینَ ءَامَنوُاْ لِمَا اخْتَلَفُواْ فِیهِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ بِإِذْنِهِ وَاللهُ یَهْدِى مَن یَشَآءُ إِلَى صِرَاط مُّسْتَقِیم (( 213 ))

213- THE PEOPLE (AT THE BEGINNING) WERE A SINGLE NATION (AND THERE WERE NO CONFLICT BETWEEN THEM. THEN GRADUALLY CLASSES AND SOCIETIES DEVELOPED AND RESULTED IN CONFLICTS AND DIFFERENCES) ALLAH RAISED PROPHETES AS BEARERS OF GLAD - TIDINGS AND AS WARNERS, AND HE SENT DOWN WITH THEM THE BOOK IN TRUTH, TO JUDGE BETWEEN PEOPLE IN MATTERS WHEREIN THEY DIFFERED. AND NONE BUT THE VERY PEOPLE WHO WERE GIVEN (THE BOOK) DIFFERED IN IT AFTER THE CLEAR SIGNS THAT HAD COME TO THEM, DUE TO ENVY OF ONE ANOTHER. THEN ALLAH GUIDED THOSE WHO BELIEVED, TO THE TRUTH OF WHAT THEY DIFFERED ON, BY HIS LEAVE, FOR ALLAH GUIDES WHOM HE PLEASES TO A STRAIGHT PATH.
