Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the Scripture, who believe in jibt [superstition] and ṭāghūt [false objects of worship] and say about the disbelievers, "These are better guided than the believers as to the way"?

(நபியே) வேதத்தில் ஒரு பாகம் கொடுக்கப்பட்டவர்களை நீர் பார்க்கவில்லையா? இவர்கள் சிலைகளையும், ஷைத்தானையும், நம்பி காஃபிர்களைக் குறித்து இவர்கள் தாம் நம்பிக்கை கொண்டவர்களை விட நேரான பாதையில் இருக்கிறார்கள் என்றும் கூறுகின்றனர்.

ධර්ම ග්‍රන්ථයෙන් කොටසක් දෙනු ලැබූවන් දෙස නුඹ නො බැලුවෙහි ද? ඔවුහු මිථ්‍යාවන් සහ නපුරු බලවේගයන් විශ්වාස කරති. තවද “විශ්වාස කළවුන්ට වඩා (ප්‍රතික්ෂේප කළ) මොවුන් මාර්ගයෙන් ඉතා නිවැරදි” යැයි ඔවුහු ප්‍රතික්ෂේප කළවුනට පවසති.

کیا آپ نے انہیں نہیں دیکھا جنہیں کتاب کا کچھ حصہ ملا؟ جو بت کا اور باطل معبود کا اعتقاد رکھتے ہیں اور کافروں کے حق میں کہتے ہیں کہ یہ لوگ ایمان والوں سے زیاده راه راست پر ہیں۔

あなたはかの啓典の一部を授かった者を思わないのか,かれらはジブトとターグートを信じ,不信心な者を指して,「これらの者は,信者たちよりも正しい道に導かれている。」と言う。

难道你没有看见吗?曾受一部分天经的人,确信偶像和恶魔。他们指着不信道的人说:这等人的道路,比信道者的道路还要正当些。

Tafsir of 4:51

Chastising and Cursing the Jews for Claiming Purity for Themselves and Believing in Jibt and Taghut Al-Hasan and Qatadah said, "This Ayah, أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ يُزَكُّونَ أَنفُسَهُمْ (Have you not seen those who claim sanctity for themselves) was revealed about the Jews and Christians when they said, `We are Allah's children and His loved ones."' Ibn Zayd also said, "This Ayah was revealed concerning their statement, نَحْنُ أَبْنَاءُ اللَّهِ وَأَحِبَّاؤُهُ (We are the children of Allah and His loved ones) and their statement, لَن يَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ إِلاَّ مَن كَانَ هُودًا أَوْ نَصَرَى (None shall enter Paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian)." This is why Allah said, بَلِ اللَّهُ يُزَكِّى مَن يَشَآءُ (Nay, but Allah sanctifies whom He wills,) meaning, the decision in this matter is with Allah Alone, because He has perfect knowledge of the true reality and secrets of all things. Allah then said, وَلاَ يُظْلَمُونَ فَتِيلاً (And they will not be dealt with injustice even equal to the extent of a Fatil, ) meaning, He does no injustice with anyone's compensation in any part of his reward, even if it was the weight of a Fatil.…
