Al-muntakhab fi tafsir al-Qur'an al-Karim
Say to them " What if this Book -the Quran- is a Divine disclosure of knowledge by Allah to man, and you refuse to acknowledge it when all the preceding Books, foretold things to come crowned by the Quran as has been acknowledged by one or more of Bani-Israel (Children of Israel) who attested that it conforms, like the Book of Mussa (Moses), with truth and agrees with reality?" Yet you deny it and you turn your heads in contempt and you object to it with inordinate self-esteem. But never will Allah impress piety on the hearts of the perverse who are wrongful of actions
Say, “Do you see, if this is from Allah and you do not believe in it, while a witness from among the children of Israel has (already) borne witness over (something) similar to it and believed (in it earlier), and you consider yourselves great (then who is at loss)? Allah certainly does not guide the unjust people.”
