98:1
It was not possible for those who fall away from the Faith among the People of the Book and the Polytheists to quit their perversion till the irrefutable Sign came to them:
98:2
A Messenger from Allâh reciting (to them) Purified Scriptures,
98:4
Those who were given the Scripture did not fall into division till the irrefutable Sign came to them.
98:5
Yet they were not commanded except to worship Allâh (in the way He wants us to worship Him), establish the regular Prayer and pay Zakāt. That is the true Religion.
98:6
Lo! those who persistently refuse to yield to the Truth among the people of the Book and the Polytheists will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of the creatures.
98:7
And Lo! those who live by Faith and strive to do righteous acts are the best of the creatures.
98:8
Their reward from their Lord: Gardens of Eden underneath which rivers flow wherein they will dwell forever. Allâh is so pleased with them and they are with Him. This is for him whoever shows honor and reverence for his Lord.
