Sura 2 Al-Baqarah (The Cow), ayah 91

  1. وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ آمِنُوا بِمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ قَالُوا نُؤْمِنُ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْنَا وَيَكْفُرُونَ بِمَا وَرَاءَهُ وَهُوَ الْحَقُّ مُصَدِّقًا لِمَا مَعَهُمْ ۗ قُلْ فَلِمَ تَقْتُلُونَ أَنْبِيَاءَ اللَّهِ مِنْ قَبْلُ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ

    Translation by words

    وَإِذَا
    And when
    قِيلَ
    it is said
    لَهُمْ
    to them,
    ءَامِنُوا۟
    "Believe
    بِمَآ
    in what
    أَنزَلَ
    has revealed
    ٱللَّهُ
    Allah,"
    قَالُوا۟
    they say,
    نُؤْمِنُ
    "We believe
    بِمَآ
    in what
    أُنزِلَ
    was revealed
    عَلَيْنَا
    to us."
    وَيَكْفُرُونَ
    And they disbelieve
    بِمَا
    in what
    وَرَآءَهُۥ
    (is) besides it,
    وَهُوَ
    while it
    ٱلْحَقُّ
    (is) the truth
    مُصَدِّقًا
    confirming
    لِّمَا
    what
    مَعَهُمْ
    (is) with them.
    قُلْ
    Say,
    فَلِمَ
    "Then why
    تَقْتُلُونَ
    (did) you kill
    أَنۢبِيَآءَ
    (the) Prophets
    ٱللَّهِ
    (of) Allah
    مِن
    from
    قَبْلُ
    before,
    إِن
    if
    كُنتُم
    you were
    مُّؤْمِنِينَ
    believers?"

    And when it is said to them, "Believe in what Allah has revealed," they say, "We believe (only) in what was revealed to us." And they disbelieve in what came after it, while it is the truth confirming that which is with them. Say, "Then why did you kill the prophets of Allah before, if you are (indeed) believers?"
