The Holy Quran 2:101 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

وَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مِّنْ عِندِ ٱللَّهِ مُصَدِّقٌ لِّمَا مَعَهُمْ نَبَذَ فَرِيقٌ مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ كِتَـٰبَ ٱللَّهِ وَرَآءَ ظُهُورِهِمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

Translation

When a messenger (Rasulullaah) comes to them from Allaah, confirming that (Torah) which is with them, a party of those given the Book (the Torah) throw the Book of Allaah behind their backs as if they have no knowledge (they pretend that they know nothing about what the Torah says about the arrival of Rasulullaah).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

ولما جاءهم محمد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بالقرآن الموافق لما معهم من التوراة طرح فريق منهم كتاب الله، وجعلوه وراء ظهورهم، شأنهم شأن الجهال الذين لا يعلمون حقيقته.
