The Holy Quran 2:113 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

وَقَالَتِ ٱلْيَهُودُ لَيْسَتِ ٱلنَّصَـٰرَىٰ عَلَىٰ شَىْءٍ وَقَالَتِ ٱلنَّصَـٰرَىٰ لَيْسَتِ ٱلْيَهُودُ عَلَىٰ شَىْءٍ وَهُمْ يَتْلُونَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ مِثْلَ قَوْلِهِمْ ۚ فَٱللَّهُ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ فِيمَا كَانُوا۟ فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ

Translation

The Jews say, "The Christians have nothing (do not have a true religion) to stand on (by saying this, the Jews deny Isa)," while the Christians say, "The Jews have nothing (do not have a true religion) to stand on (by saying this, the Christians deny Moosa)," whereas they (both) recite the Book (of Allaah, the Torah and the Injeel. Whereas the Torah of the Jews mentioned the coming of Isa , the Injeel of the Christians mentioned that Moosa was Allaah's true prophet). Those who have no knowledge (the Arab Mushrikeen and others) say exactly what they say (they say to people following a religion that they have no true religion to stand on). Allaah will judge between them on the Day of Qiyaamah concerning the matters about which they differ (Allaah will then allow those following the truth to enter Jannah while the others will have to enter Jahannam).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

وقالت اليهود: ليست النصارى على شيء من الدين الصحيح، وكذلك قالت النصارى في اليهود وهم يقرؤون التوراة والإنجيل، وفيهما وجوب الإيمان بالأنبياء جميعًا. كذلك قال الذين لا يعلمون من مشركي العرب وغيرهم مثل قولهم، أي قالوا لكل ذي دين: لستَ على شيء، فالله يفصل بينهم يوم القيامة فيما اختلفوا فيه مِن أمر الدين، ويجازي كلا بعمله.
