2:101

Salaam all,

This is 2:101
وَلَمَّآ جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مِّنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ مُصَدِّقٌ لِّمَا مَعَهُمْ نَبَذَ فَرِيقٌ مِّنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ الْكِتَابَ كِتَابَ اللَّهِ وَرَآءَ ظُهُورِهِمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ
Walamma jaahum rasoolun minAAindi Allahi musaddiqun lima maAAahum nabathafareequn mina allatheena ootoo alkitaba kitabaAllahi waraa thuhoorihim kaannahum layaAAlamoona

Note:
The AYA says “And when an envoy came to them from the GOD declaring true what is with them, a group of the ones that were given the book put away the book of GOD behind their backs, as if they do not know.

My personal note:
The Aya talks about some of the people that were given the book before the prophet and that is a designation given mostly to Christians and Jews. The Aya points out that the prophet came declaring true what the people of the book have. The AYA also points out that the people that cast away the book of GOD behind their backs become people without knowledge.

This continues the main point of the message of the Qur’an and that is knowledge is very important. It also points out that one needs to read the book in order to make sure that they actually gain the knowledge.
