verse 213: 215  of Surat Al-Baqarah

verse 213  of Surat Al-Baqarah

Mankind was [of] one religion [before their deviation]; then Allah sent the prophets as bringers of good tidings and warners and sent down with them the Scripture in truth to judge between the people concerning that in which they differed.

And none differed over the Scripture except those who were given it - after the clear proofs came to them - out of jealous animosity among themselves.

And Allah guided those who believed to the truth concerning that over which they had differed, by His permission.

and Allah guides whom He wills to a straight path 

verse 214  of Surat Al-Baqarah

Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while such [trial] has not yet come to you as came to those who passed on before you?

They were touched by poverty and hardship and were shaken until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said, “When is the help of Allah?”

Unquestionably, the help of Allah is near 

verse 215  of Surat Al-Baqarah

They ask you, [O Muhammad], what they should spend. Say, "Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveler.

And whatever you do of good - indeed, Allah is Knowing of it."

٠ Interpretation of verse 213 of Surat Al-Baqarah

So what happened of differences between people came after people were one nation 

And God Almighty had conveyed the method to Adam and taught Adam his sons the method of God, but some of his sons rebelled against the method, and the love of monopolizing benefits and greed for worldly pleasures arose. 

This was the birth of the first difference between humans when Abel and Cain competed to monopolize the benefit of marrying one sister by having one of them marry his sister, which led to Abel killing his brother Cain so that he could marry her. 

Therefore, people were one nation but they differed at the moment of monopolizing benefits, and each person had his own desires. 

If God had willed to make His method for Adam a permanent method until the Day of Resurrection, He would have done so.

 But God Almighty, in His mercy, knows that He created us, and He knows that we sometimes make mistakes, sometimes we neglect, and sometimes we forget,

 So God willed to continue the processions of messengers for His creation,

 so that people would remember that there is Paradise and Hell, so He sent messengers as bearers of good tidings for those who follow God’s path

 And warners for those who oppose God’s path. God sent down with the prophets the heavenly books, all of which clarify the truth 

 And what is in these books governs what they differed over,  and what is meant is that they differed over the message of Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace,

 or those who differed over him is our master Jesus, about whom the Jews and Christians differed, 

Or they differed over monotheism, some of them believed and some of them disbelieved after the clear proofs came to them that clarify the truth mentioned in the heavenly books.

 They differed unjustly and ungratefully, and they persisted in transgression, which is disbelief, which is the most severe type of hostility and injustice,

 But God guided those who believed and avoided what they differed over, those who disbelieved.

so they believed and followed what God revealed of  Methodology: God guides whomever 

He wills of those who desire guidance and strive for guidance.

 It is the straight path by which the believer attains God’s pleasure and Paradise.

Interpretation of verse 14 of Surat Al-Baqarah

God Almighty tells the believers that jihad in the way of God and supporting the religion of God is a difficult matter that requires patience, and that they should not think that the nation of Islam is different from others in the matter of trial

 And temptation. God Almighty wanted, out of His mercy, to reassure them that whatever calamity, test or trial befalls them, God reassures them that they will enter Paradise, and God reassures them that His victory is near.

Interpretation of verse 215 of Surat Al-Baqarah

The question came from Amr bin Al-Jamuh, an old man, who said: O Messenger of Allah, I have a lot of money, so what should I give in charity and on whom should I spend it? He was not asking for himself only, 

But he was translating the feelings of others, and therefore the answer was general and does not concern the questioner alone, but rather includes all believers. 

The verses have shown that spending in the way of Allah is good, its money is good and directed towards goodness, 

So the word goodness includes everything beautiful and beneficial to people, and those who are obligated to do all this goodness and charity are relatives,

And the poor and  orphans, the orphan whose father died before the son reached the age of puberty, and the wayfarer who is in a foreign country and needs financial assistance, and Allah reassures them 

That Allah knows all this goodness, and as long as Allah knows it, the believer is happy because he trusts that Allah will give him a great reward
