90 Preface كَما أَنزَلنا عَلَى المُقتَسِمينَYusuf Ali(Of just such wrath) as We sent down on those who divided (Scripture into arbitrary parts),-1The Commentators differ as to the precise significance of verses 90 and 91. Are the persons referred to in the two verses the same, or different? And who were they? I adopt the view, for which there is good authority, that the two classes of persons were different but similar. Verse 90,1 think, refers to the Jews and Christians, who took out of Scripture what suited them, and ignored or rejected the rest: 2:85 and 101. For verse 91 see next note.
