003.095 Y: Say: "Allah speaketh the Truth: follow the religion of Abraham, the sane in faith; he was not of the Pagans." P: Say: Allah speaketh truth. So follow the religion of Abraham, the upright. He was not of the idolaters. S: Say: Allah has spoken the truth, therefore follow the religion of Ibrahim, the upright one; and he was not one of the polytheists. 003.096 Y: The first House (of worship) appointed for men was that at Bakka: Full of blessing and of guidance for all kinds of beings: P: Lo! the first Sanctuary appointed for mankind was that at Becca, a blessed place, a guidance to the peoples; S: Most surely the first house appointed for men is the one at Bekka, blessed and a guidance for the nations. 003.097 Y: In it are Signs Manifest; (for example), the Station of Abraham; whoever enters it attains security; Pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to Allah,- those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith, Allah stands not in need of any of His creatures. P: Wherein are plain memorials (of Allah's guidance); the place where Abraham stood up to pray; and whosoever entereth it is safe. And pilgrimage to the House is a duty unto Allah for mankind, for him who can find a way thither. As for him who disbelieveth, (let him know that) lo! Allah is Independent of (all) creatures. S: In it are clear signs, the standing place of Ibrahim, and whoever enters it shall be secure, and pilgrimage to the House is incumbent upon men for the sake of Allah, (upon) every one who is able to undertake the journey to it; and whoever disbelieves, then surely Allah is Self-sufficient, above any need of the worlds. 003.098 Y: Say: "O People of the Book! Why reject ye the Signs of Allah, when Allah is Himself witness to all ye do?" P: Say: O People of the Scripture! Why disbelieve ye in the revelations of Allah, when Allah (Himself) is Witness of what ye do? S: Say: O followers of the Book! why do you disbelieve in the communications of Allah? And Allah is a witness of what you do. 003.099 Y: Say: "O ye People of the Book! Why obstruct ye those who believe, from the path of Allah, Seeking to make it crooked, while ye were yourselves witnesses (to Allah's Covenant)? but Allah is not unmindful of all that ye do." P: Say: O People of the Scripture! Why drive ye back believers from the way of Allah, seeking to make it crooked, when ye are witnesses (to Allah's guidance)? Allah is not unaware of what ye do. S: Say: O followers of the Book! why do you hinder him who believes from the way of Allah? You seek (to make) it crooked, while you are witness, and Allah is not heedless of what you do. 003.100 Y: O ye who believe! If ye listen to a faction among the People of the Book, they would (indeed) render you apostates after ye have believed! P: O ye who believe! If ye obey a party of those who have received the Scripture they will make you disbelievers after your belief.
