✧ There were kings after Jesus who altered the Torah and the Gospel. Among them were believers who recited the Torah. It was said to their kings, "We do not find any insult more severe than the insult these people direct at us, for they recite {And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, then it is those who are the disbelievers} [al-Ma'idah: 44] and these verses, along with the faults they find in our actions during their recitation. So summon them and let them recite as we recite and believe as we believe." So he summoned them and gathered them, and he offered them death or leaving off recitation of the Torah and the Gospel except what they had altered from it. They said, "What do you want from that? Leave us alone." One group of them said, "Build for us a pillar, then raise us up to it, then give us something with which to lift our food and drink, and we will not return to you." Another group said, "Let us roam the earth and wander and drink as wild animals drink. If you catch us in your land, then kill us." Another group said, "Build for us houses in the deserts, and we will dig wells and cultivate herbs, and we will not return to you or come near you." There was not one of the tribes but had a close friend among them. He said: So they did that. Then Allah, exalted is He, revealed: {And monasticism, which they innovated; We did not prescribe it for them except [for] seeking the pleasure of Allah, and they did not observe it with proper observance} [al-Hadid: 27]. The others said, "We will worship as so-and-so worshipped and roam as so-and-so roamed and adopt houses as so-and-so adopted, upon their polytheism, without knowledge of the faith of those whom they imitated." When Allah sent the Prophet ﷺ and only a few of them remained, a man descended from his hermitage, a wanderer came from his wandering, and the owner of the monastery from his monastery, and they believed in him and declared him true. Then Allah, exalted is He, said: {O you who believe, fear Allah and believe in His Messenger; He will give you a double portion of His mercy} [al-Hadid: 28] — two rewards: one for their belief in Jesus ﷺ and in the Torah and the Gospel, and one for their belief in Muhammad ﷺ and their declaration of him as true. He said: {He will make for you a light by which you may walk} [al-Hadid: 28] — the Qur'an and their following of the Prophet ﷺ. He said: {So that the People of the Book may know} [al-Hadid: 29] — those who resemble you — {that they have no power over anything of the bounty of Allah, and that bounty is in the hand of Allah; He gives it to whom He wills. And Allah is the possessor of great bounty} [al-Hadid: 29] — the verse.
