“They thought there would be no trial, so they became blind and deaf. Then Allah accepted their repentance; then many of them became blind and deaf again. And Allah is All-Seeing of what they do.” (71)
His words, glorified and exalted is He: “Say, ‘O People of the Book, you have no ground to stand upon until you uphold the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been sent down to you from your Lord.’”
﴿وَحَسِبُوا أَلَّا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ فَعَمُوا وَصَمُّوا ثُمَّ تَابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ عَمُوا وَصَمُّوا كَثِيرٌ مِنْهُمْ وَاللَّهُ بَصِيرٌ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ (٧١) ﴾
قَوْلُهُ ﷿: ﴿قُلْ يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ لَسْتُمْ عَلَى شَيْءٍ حَتَّى تُقِيمُوا التَّوْرَاةَ وَالْإِنْجِيلَ وَمَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ﴾
