Verse (5:68)

The analysis above refers to the 68th verse of chapter 5 (sūrat l-māidah):

Sahih International: Say, "O People of the Scripture, you are [standing] on nothing until you uphold [the law of] the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been revealed to you from your Lord." And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. So do not grieve over the disbelieving people.
