Al-Ma'idah 5:42

<h2>Do Not Feel Sad Because of the Behavior of the Jews and Hypocrites</h2><p>These honorable Ayat were revealed about those who rush into disbelief, deviating from the obedience of Allah, His Messenger, prefering their opinions and lusts to what Allah has legislated,</p><p>مِنَ الَّذِينَ قَالُواْ ءَامَنَّا بِأَفْوَهِهِمْ وَلَمْ تُؤْمِن قُلُوبُهُمْ</p><p>(of such who say, "We believe" with their mouths but their hearts have no faith.) These people pretend to be faithful with their words, but their hearts are empty from faith, and they are the hypocrites.</p><p>مِّنَ الَّذِينَ هَادُواْ</p><p>(And of the Jews...) the enemies of Islam and its people, they and the hypocrites all,</p><p>سَمَّـعُونَ لِلْكَذِبِ</p><p>(listen much and eagerly to lies...) and they accept and react to it positively,</p><p>سَمَّـعُونَ لِقَوْمٍ ءَاخَرِينَ لَمْ يَأْتُوكَ</p><p>(listening to others who have not come to you,) meaning, they listen to some people who do not attend your meetings, O Muhammad. Or, the Ayah might mean, they listen to what you say and convey it to your enemies who do not attend your audience.</p><h2>The Jews Alter and Change the Law, Such As Stoning the Adulterer</h2><p>يُحَرِّفُونَ الْكَلِمَ مِن بَعْدِ مَوَضِعِهِ</p><p>(They change the words from their places:) by altering their meanings and knowingly distorting them after they comprehended them,</p><p>يَقُولُونَ إِنْ أُوتِيتُمْ هَـذَا فَخُذُوهُ …

Listeners for the sake of falsehood! Greedy for illicit gain! If then they have recourse unto thee (Muhammad) judge between them or disclaim jurisdiction. If thou disclaimest jurisdiction, then they cannot harm thee at all. But if thou judgest, judge between them with equity. Lo! Allah loveth the equitable.

(They are fond of) listening to falsehood, of devouring anything forbidden. If they do come to thee, either judge between them, or decline to interfere. If thou decline, they cannot hurt thee in the least. If thou judge, judge in equity between them. For Allah loveth those who judge in equity.

(They like to) listen to falsehood, to devour anything forbidden. So if they come to you (O Muhammad SAW), either judge between them, or turn away from them. If you turn away from them, they cannot hurt you in the least. And if you judge, judge with justice between them. Verily, Allah loves those who act justly.

Listeners to falsehoods, eaters of illicit earnings. If they come to you, judge between them, or turn away from them. If you turn away from them, they will not harm you in the least. But if you judge, judge between them equitably. God loves the equitable.
