45وَلَقَد آتَينا موسَى الكِتابَ فَاختُلِفَ فيهِ ۗ وَلَولا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَت مِن رَبِّكَ لَقُضِيَ بَينَهُم ۚ وَإِنَّهُم لَفي شَكٍّ مِنهُ مُريبٍN. J. DawoodWe gave the Torah to Moses, but contentions arose about it. And but for a word from your Lord, long since decreed, their differences would have been justly settled, grave though their doubts were about it.
