كَانَ النَّاسُ اُمَّةً وَّاحِدَةً- فَبَعَثَ اللّٰهُ النَّبِیّٖنَ مُبَشِّرِیْنَ وَ مُنْذِرِیْنَ۪-وَ اَنْزَلَ مَعَهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ بِالْحَقِّ لِیَحْكُمَ بَیْنَ النَّاسِ فِیْمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِیْهِؕ-وَ مَا اخْتَلَفَ فِیْهِ اِلَّا الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوْهُ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُمُ الْبَیِّنٰتُ بَغْیًۢا بَیْنَهُمْۚ-فَهَدَى اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لِمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِیْهِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ بِاِذْنِهٖؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ یَهْدِیْ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ(213)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

All people were one nation. So Allah sent Prophets giving glad tidings and relating matters of fear, and revealed the True Book with them that it passes judgement on issues of dispute between the people. And the very people who were granted the Book disputed it due to animosity between themselves ˹even˺ after clear signs had come to them; so Allah, with His will, guided those who believe to the truth which people were disputing[1]—and Allah shows the straight path to whomsoever He wills.

Commentary

[1]

Disagreement, in essence, is not condemnable, however, disagreeing with and opposing the commands of Allah Almighty and His Messenger صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, after the truth becomes clear, is culpable.
