002.176 Y:  (Their doom is) because Allah sent down the Book in truth but those who seek causes of dispute in the Book are in a schism Far (from the purpose).

P:  That is because Allah hath revealed the Scripture with the truth.  Lo! those who find (a cause of) disagreement in the Scripture are in open schism.

S:  This is because Allah has revealed the Book with the truth; and surely those who go against the Book are in a great opposition.

002.177 Y:  It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic.  Such are the people of truth, the Allah-fearing.

P:  It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces to the East and the West; but righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and the angels and the Scripture and the prophets; and giveth wealth, for love of Him, to kinsfolk and to orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and to those who ask, and to set slaves free; and observeth proper worship and payeth the poor-due.  And those who keep their treaty when they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of stress.  Such are they who are sincere.  Such are the Allah-fearing.

S:  It is not righteousness that you turn your faces towards the East and the West, but righteousness is this that one should believe in Allah and the last day and the angels and the Book and the prophets, and give away wealth out of love for Him to the near of kin and the orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and the beggars and for (the emancipation of) the captives, and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate; and the performers of their promise when they make a promise, and the patient in distress and affliction and in time of conflicts—­ these are they who are true (to themselves) and these are they who guard (against evil).

002.178 Y:  O ye who believe! the law of equality is prescribed to you in cases of murder:  the free for the free, the slave for the slave, the woman for the woman.  But if any remission is made by the brother of the slain, then grant any reasonable demand, and compensate him with handsome gratitude, this is a concession and a Mercy from your Lord.  After this whoever exceeds the limits shall be in grave penalty.

P:  O ye who believe!  Retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the murdered; the freeman for the freeman, and the slave for the slave, and the female for the female.  And for him who is forgiven somewhat by his (injured) brother, prosecution according to usage and payment unto him in kindness.  This is an alleviation and a mercy from your Lord.  He who transgresseth after this will have a painful doom.
