3.61 . And whoso disputeth with thee concerning him , after the knowledge which hath come unto thee , say ( unto him ) : Come! We will summon our sons and your sons , and our women and your women , and ourselves and yourselves , then we will pray humbly ( to our Lord ) and ( solemnly ) invoke the curse of Allah upon those who lie .

3.62 . Lo! This verily is the true narrative . There is no God save Allah , and lo! Allah is the Mighty , , the Wise .

3.63 . And if they turn away , then Lo! Allah is Aware of ( who are ) the corrupters .

3.64 . Say : O People of the Scripture . Come to an agreement between us and you : that we shall worship none but Allah , and that we shall ascribe no partners unto Him , and that none of us shall take others for lords beside Allah . And if they turn away , then say : Bear witness that we are they who have surrendered ( unto Him ) .

3.65 . O People of the Scripture! Why will ye argue about Abraham , when the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed till after him? Have ye then no sense?

3.66 . Lo! ye are those who argue about that whereof ye have some knowledge : Why then argue ye concerning that whereof ye have no knowledge? Allah knoweth . Ye know not .

3.67 . Abraham was not a Jew , nor yet a Christian ; but he was an upright man who had surrendered ( to Allah ) , and he was not of the idolaters .

3.68 . Lo! those of mankind who have the best claim to Abraham are those who followed him , and this Prophet and those who believe ( with him ) ; and Allah is the Protecting Friend of the believers .

3.69 . A party of the people of the Scripture long to make you go astray ; and they make none to go astray except themselves , but they perceive not .

3.70 . O People of the Scripture! Why disbelieve ye in the revelations of Allah , when ye ( yourselves ) bear witness ( to theft truth ) ?

3.71 . O People of the Scripture! Why confound ye truth with falsehood and knowingly conceal the troth?

3.72 . And a party of the People of the Scripture say : Believe in that which hath been revealed , unto those who believe at the opening of the day , and disbelieve at the end thereof , in order that they may return ;

3.73 . And believe not save in one who followeth your religion . Say ( O Muhammad ) : Lo! the guidance is Allah ' s guidance . that any one is given the like of that which was given unto you or that they may argue with you in the presence of their Lord . Say ( O Muhammad ) : Lo! the bounty is in Allah ' s hand . He bestoweth it on whom He will . Allah is All Embracing , All Knowing .

3.74 . He selecteth for His mercy whom He will . Allah is of infinite bounty .

3.75 . Among the People of the Scripture there is he who , if thou trust him with a weight of treasure , will return it to thee . And among them there is he who , if thou trust him with a piece of gold , will not return it to thee unless thou keep standing over him . That is because they say : We have no duty to the Gentiles . They speak a lie concerning Allah knowingly .

3.76 . Nay , but ( the chosen of Allah is ) he who fulfilleth his pledge and wardeth off ( evil ) ; for lot Allah loveth those who ward off ( evil ) .

3.77 . Lo! those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah ' s covenant and their oaths , they have no portion in the Hereafter . Allah will neither speak to them nor look upon them on the Day of Resurrection , nor will He make them grow . Theirs will be a painful doom .

3.78 . And Lo! there is a party of them who distort the Scripture with their tongues , that ye may think that what they say is from the Scripture , when it is not from the Scripture . And they say : It is from Allah , when it is not from Allah ; and they speak a lie concerning Allah knowingly .

3.79 . It is not ( possible ) for any human being unto whom Allah had given the Scripture and wisdom and the Prophethood that he should afterwards have said unto mankind : Be slaves of me instead of Allah ; but ( what he said was ) : Be ye faithful servants of the Lord by virtue of your constant teaching of the Scripture and of your constant study thereof .

3.80 . And he commanded you not that ye should take the angels and the Prophets for lords . Would he command you to disbelieve after ye had surrendered ( to Allah ) ?
