﴿ وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُم بَيِّنَٰتٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْأَمْرِ ۖ فَمَا ٱخْتَلَفُوٓا۟ إِلَّا مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ ٱلْعِلْمُ بَغْيًۢا بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَقْضِى بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ فِيمَا كَانُوا۟ فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ ﴾

“And We gave them clear indications of the purpose [of faith]; and it was only after all this knowledge had been vouchsafed to them that they began, out of mutual jealousy, to hold divergent views: [but,] verily, thy Sustainer will judge be­tween them on Resurrection Day regarding all whereon they were wont to differ.”

(And gave them plain commandments) regarding Religion. (And they differed not) regarding Muhammad (pbuh) the Qur'an and Islam (until after the knowledge came unto them) until the explanation in their own Scripture came to them, (through rivalry among themselves) because of resentful envy they refused to believe in Muhammad (pbuh) and the Qur'an. (Lo! thy Lord) O Muhammad (will judge between them) between the Jews, Christians and believers (on the Day of Resurrection concerning that wherein) in matter of religion (they used to differ) in the life of the world.
