and Prophethood; We gave them, for Sustenance, things good and pure; and We favoured

17. And We granted them Clear Signs in affairs (of Religion): it was only after
knowledge had been granted to them that they fell into schisms, through insolent envy
among themselves. Verily thy Lord will judge between them on the Day of Judgment as
to those matters in which they set up differences.
18. Thumma jaAAalnaka AAala shareeAAatin mina al-amri fa

18. Then We put thee on the (right) Way of Religion: so follow thou that (Way), and
follow not the desires of those who know not.
