In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari
Surat Al-Ma'idah
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
O Messenger, do not be saddened by those who rush into disbelief
Of those who said, “We believe” with their mouths
And their hearts did not believe
Among those who are Jews listen to lies
Listening to other people
They didn't come to you
They distort words from some of their places
They say: If you are given this, take it, but if you are not given it, beware
And whoever God wants to test, you will not have anything for him with God
Those whose hearts God did not want to purify
For them in this world is disgrace, and for them is a great torment in the Hereafter
O Messenger, do not be saddened by the haste of those who hasten to disbelieve in you
Of the hypocrites who said
We believed in you, O Muhammad, that you are the Messenger of God
They believe you are lying
And do not rush the Jews to deny your prophecy
These hypocritical Jews listen to lies
In the ruling on a woman who committed adultery while she was married
They listen to lies from the words of their rabbis
The ruling on the adulterer in the Torah is bathing and flogging
They listen to the family of the adulterer who wanted to go to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
They are the other people who did not come to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
They only asked the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, about that
To let the immoral woman's family know what his response will be
If the ruling is not stoning, they will accept it
If the ruling is stoning, they warn him and refuse to accept it
The Jews distort the ruling of God that He revealed in the Torah
Concerning chaste women and chaste women, from committing adultery by stoning to flogging and bathing
After God placed that in its places
These ignorant listeners tell lies
If Muhammad gives you a fatwa regarding flogging and bathing our friend, then accept it from him
If he does not give you a fatwa on that and gives you a fatwa of stoning, then warn him
And whoever God wants, O Muhammad, to return him astray from the path of guidance
You will not be able to save him from God from the confusion and misguidance that God intended for him
Do not feel sad about what you missed from being guided to the truth
These are those whose hearts God did not want to purify from the filth of disbelief and the filth of polytheism
Rather, he wanted humiliation and humiliation for them in this world
And in the Hereafter, there is the torment of Hell, wherein they will abide forever
They listen to lies and eat falsehood
If they come to you, judge between them or turn away from them
If you turn away from them, they will not harm you at all
If you decide, then judge between them fairly
God loves those who are just
These Jews were described as listening to falsehood and lies
They accept bribes and eat them for their lies and slander against God
If these other people come who have not come to you yet
They are the people of the prostituted woman, seeking judgment against you
So judge between them, if you wish, with the truth that God has made a judge regarding whoever does the actions of a prostituted woman
Or turn away from them and leave the judgment between them if you wish
And if you turn away, O Muhammad, from those who refer to you among the People of the Book
They will not be able to harm you in religion or in this world
And if you choose to judge and consider, O Muhammad
So judge between them fairly. God loves those who are just in their judgment among people
Judge between them by the judgment of God
How can they rule you when they have the Torah in which is God’s rule?
Then they take over after that
And those are not believers
How do these Jews rule you, O Muhammad, among them?
They have the Torah that was revealed to Moses
Which they acknowledge is true
They know that my ruling regarding married adulterers is stoning
And they know that
They leave judgment because of their boldness and disobedience to me
Not the one who did this act
That is, one who turns away from the rule of God that He revealed to His Prophet
By the one who believes in God and His Messenger
This is bashing the Jews
So he tells them
How do you acknowledge the ruling of the Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace?
With the denial of his prophecy
And you abandon the rule of what you acknowledge
Moses brought it to you from God
Indeed, We sent down the Torah, in which is guidance and light
It is judged by the prophets who submitted to those who are guided
And the rabbis and the rabbis
Because they memorized the Book of God and were witnesses to it
Do not fear people, fear Me
And do not exchange My verses for a small price
And whoever does not rule by what God has revealed, those are the disbelievers
Indeed, We sent down the Torah, in which is an explanation of what these Jews asked you about regarding the ruling on married adulterers
And there is an ambiguous light of judgment
The prophets who submitted to God’s rule and acknowledged it are governed by the law of the Torah
And the wise scholars who have insight into people’s politics and the management of their affairs
And the scholars who are arbitrators of a thing by what they have entrusted with knowledge of the Torah
They were on the same ruling as the prophets who submitted to Islam as martyrs for those who were Jews
They were judged by the Book of God which He revealed to His Prophet Moses
So do not fear the people in implementing the ruling that I have imposed on My servants
For they can do you no harm or benefit except with My permission
And do not take, O rabbis, for abandoning judgment by the verses of the Book which you revealed to Moses as a vile compensation
And whoever conceals the ruling of God which He revealed in His Book, hides it and rules by something other than it
They are the ones who covered the truth that they were supposed to reveal and explain
They covered it from the people and showed them something else, and they ruled that it was unlawful for them to take it from them
We decreed for them therein that a life for a life, an eye for an eye, and a nose for a nose
Ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds are retribution
Whoever believes in it, it will be an expiation for him, and whoever does not judge by what God has revealed, those are the wrongdoers
We imposed on the Jews in the Torah that the killing soul be killed for the killing soul
We made it obligatory for them to put out the eye whose owner had put out a similar eye from another soul
Nose will be cut off for nose, ear will be cut off for ear, and tooth will be pulled out for tooth
Someone else takes revenge on someone else for injustice towards the injured person. Whoever gives it in charity, it will be his atonement for the injured person
Charity is the expiation of the sin of its doer
And whoever does not judge according to what God revealed in the Torah regarding the power of the killing soul, retaliation for the unjustly killed soul
But he was led by some and not led by others. Whoever does that is one who is devoid of God’s judgment
We found in their footsteps Ess bin Maryam, confirming what was before him of the Torah
And We gave him the Gospel, in which is guidance and light, and a confirmation of the Torah that came before it, and a guidance and admonition for the righteous.
We followed Jesus bin Maryam in the footsteps of the prophets who converted to Islam before you, O Muhammad
So we sent him confirming Our Book which We sent down to Moses before him, that it is true
And We sent down to him the Gospel
It contains an explanation of what people did not know about God’s rule in his time
And there is light in it from the deeds of ignorance
And We sent down the Gospel to Jesus, confirming the books that came before him
And an explanation of the ruling of God that He was pleased with for His servants in the time of Jesus
And rebuke the righteous who fear God and beware of His punishment
So they feared Him by obeying Him in what He commanded them
They warned him about Turkma and he forbade them from doing so
And let the people of the Gospel judge by what God revealed in it
And whoever does not rule by what God has revealed, those are the transgressors
We commanded the people of the Gospel according to what God revealed in it
So they changed his ruling and disagreed with him
And whoever does not rule by what God has revealed, those are those who deviate from God’s command
And We have sent down to you the Book with truth
Confirming what was in his hands of the book
And we dominate him
So he judged between them according to what God revealed
Do not follow their desires away from the truth that has come to you
For each of you, We have made a law and a method
If God had willed, He would have made you one nation, but that He might test you in what He has given you
So anticipate good things
To God you all return
Then He will inform you of what you differed about
And We sent down to you, O Muhammad, the Qur’an with truth
And We sent it down by confirming the books of God that preceded it
And as a witness to it, it is a right from God
And we are responsible for it and protect it
So judge, O Muhammad, between the People of the Book and the polytheists according to what was revealed to you
In everything they brought to you for judgment
Do not follow the desires of the Jews about the truth that has come to you from God
Every people among you has a law and a clear path
If your Lord had willed, He would have made your laws one
You were one nation, and your laws and approaches did not differ
But God Almighty disagreed with your laws
To test you in what was revealed to you from the Book
So, O people, hasten to do good deeds
For He sent them down only as a test for you and as a test
He will reward all of you for his work
To Him is the destiny of all of you
So God will inform each group of you about what it differed from the other groups about
They will be separated by the judiciary
He shows the right from the wrong
And I will judge between them according to what God has revealed
Do not follow their whims and cautions
That they may tempt you from some of what God has revealed to you
If they turn away, then it is known that God wants
To afflict them with some of their sins
Many people are sinners
And I will judge between them according to what God has revealed to you in His Book
Do not follow the whims of the Jews
O Muhammad, warn these Jews
That they may tempt you and turn you away from some of what God has revealed to you
If these Jews took over
So they abandoned doing what I ruled
Know that they have not turned away from being satisfied with your ruling
You have judged the truth
Except because God wants to hasten their punishment
In the urgent world
Some of their past sins
And many of the Jews
Those who depart from obedience to Him lead to disobedience to Him
The rule of pre-Islamic times they seek
Who is better than God in judgment for a people who are certain?
Do you want these Jews who appealed to you?
They were not satisfied with your ruling
Rulings on idol worshipers who are polytheists
They have the Book of God
There is a right that cannot be disputed
And who is this that is better than God’s judgment?
If you are certain that you have a usury
And you were people of monotheism and recognition of it
