213. Mankind was one single nation, and Allah sent Messengers with glad tidings and

warnings; and with them He sent the Book in truth, to judge between people in matters

wherein they differed; but the People of the Book, after the clear Signs came to them, did

not differ among themselves, except through selfish contumacy. Allah by His Grace

Guided the believers to the Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allah

guided whom He will to a path that is straight.

214. Or do ye think that ye shall enter the Garden (of bliss) without such (trials) as came

to those who passed away before you? they encountered suffering and adversity, and

were so shaken in spirit that even the Messenger and those of faith who were with him

cried: "When (will come) the help of Allah." Ah! Verily, the help of Allah is (always)

near!
