ولقد اتينا موسى الكتاب فاختلف فيه ولولا كلمة سبقت من ربك لقضي بينهم وانهم لفي شك منه مريب

We certainly gave Moses The Book aforetime: but disputes Arose therein. Had it not Been for a Word That went forth before From thy Lord, (their differences) Would have been settled Between them: but they Remained in suspicious Disquieting doubt thereon.
