O my sorrow over the ignorance of the Jews

rather over their lying and fabrication,

did the favor of Allah - the Most High - upon Hajar and Ishmael - peace be upon them -

with this exaggeration and emphasis,

and the mention of this best nation with this honor and dignity

mean other than that in meaning?

It makes it possible for the Jews to claim

that these verses do not indicate urging and inciting to follow this religion and submit to it!

Glory be to You, this is a great lie.

Attaching and Fabricating

And as for attaching and fabricating against Allah - the Most High -

and attributing what they write to Allah - the Most High - and to the Torah,

its reason goes back to the fact that their rabbis and monks deepened and became strict in religion,

and they followed the path of preference, meaning deducing some rulings based on the realization of interests in them without any text from the Lawgiver,

(rather by the utilitarian intellect and human desire)

and they favored flimsy deductions and imported preferences,

so their followers placed them in the position of the foundation and attached them to it,

and believed the agreement of their predecessors upon something to be a conclusive proof,

and they had no basis in denying the prophethood of Jesus - peace be upon him - except the statements of their predecessors,

and likewise is their state in many of the rulings.

And as for the shortcoming and laxity in implementing the rulings of the Sharia and committing prohibitions,

and stinginess and greed, and what is to that effect, it is apparent that it is from
