O concourse of the people of the Book! Fear ye God and pride
not yourselves in your learning. Follow ye the Book which His Remembrance hath
revealed in praise of God, the True One. He Who is the Eternal Truth beareth me

which have been sent down from heaven by God, the Sovereign Truth. Verily, He
is well informed of what ye do.…
