Recipients of the Scriptures Transgress – Knowing vs. Understanding (5:58 – 5:63)

Recipients of the Scriptures Transgress

5:58 When you call to the Contact Prayers (Salat), they mock and ridicule it. This is because they are people who do not understand.

5:59 Say, “O people of the scripture, do you not hate us because we believe in GOD, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed before us, and because most of you are not righteous?”

5:60 Say, “Let me tell you who are worse in the sight of GOD: those who are condemned by GOD after incurring His wrath until He made them (as despicable as) monkeys and pigs, and the idol worshipers. These are far worse, and farther from the right path.”

5:61 When they come to you, they say, “We believe,” even though they were full of disbelief when they entered, and they are full of disbelief when they leave. GOD is fully aware of everything they conceal.
