Verse (42:14)

The analysis above refers to the fourteenth verse of chapter 42 (sūrat l-shūrā):

Sahih International: And they did not become divided until after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And if not for a word that preceded from your Lord [postponing the penalty] until a specified time, it would have been concluded between them. And indeed, those who were granted inheritance of the Scripture after them are, concerning it, in disquieting doubt.
