Dear Quran Lovers,
Let us continue to recite surah 2 Al-Baqoroh, synopsis of Islam. Please refer to the text:
أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
(221) وَلَا تَنكِحُواْ اُلْمُشْرِكَتِ حَتَّى يُؤْمِنَّ ج وَلَأَمَةٌ مُّؤْمِنَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِّن مُّشْرِكَةٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَتْكُمْ قلى وَلَا تُنكِحُواْ اُلْمُشْرِكِينَ حَتَّى يُؤْمِنُواْ ج وَلَعَبْدٌ مُّؤْمِنٌ خَيْرٌ مِّن مُّشْرِكٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكُمْ قلى أُوْلَئِكَ يَدْعُونَ إِلَى اُلنَّارِ صلى وَاُللهُ يَدْعُواْ~ إِلَى اُلْجَنَّةِ وَاُلْمَغْفِرَةِ بِإِذْنِهِى وَيُبَيِّنُ ءَايَتِهِى لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ
وَلَا تَنكِحُواْ اُلْمُشْرِكَتِ حَتَّى يُؤْمِنَّ = "Wa La~ Tank~ki-hul-Musy-ri-ka~ti Hat-ta~ Yuu-min~n".  = "Wa" = And, "La~" = do not, "Tank~ki-hu~" = you (pl.) marry, "al-Musy-ri-ka~ti" = the feminine disbelievers, "Hat-ta~" = until, "Yuu-min~na" = she believes/has Faith.
"Wa La~ Tank~ki-hul-Musy-ri-ka~ti Hat-ta~ Yuu-min~n". = And do not marry feminine disbelievers until they believe/have Faith.
ج = a Waqof Jaiz sign.
وَلَأَمَةٌ مُّؤْمِنَةٌ خَيْرٌمِّن مُّشْرِكَةٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَتْكُمْ = "Wa La A-ma-tum~Muu-mi-na-tun KHoi-rum~Mim~Musy-ri-ka-tiw~Wa-law Aa-ja-bat Kum".  = "Wa" = And, "La" = certainly, "A-ma-tun" = a female slave, "Muu-mi-na-tun" = a believer, "KHoi-run" = is better, "Min" = than, "Musy-ri-ka-tin" = a polytheist/disbeliever in Allah, "Wa-law" = even if", "Aa-ja-bat" = she pleases, "Kum" = you (pl.).
"Wa La A-ma-tum~Muu-mi-na-tun KHoi-rum~Mim~Musy-ri-ka-tiw~Wa-law Aa-ja-bat Kum" = And certainly, a female slave believer is better than a feminine polytheist/disbeliever in Allah even if she pleases you.
قلى = a Waqof Jaiz sign.
وَلَا تَنكِحُواْ اُلْمُشْرِكِينَ حَتَّى يُؤْمِنُواْ = "Wa La~ Tank~ki-hul-Musy-ri-ki~na Hat-ta~ Yuu-mi-nu~". = "Wa" = And, "La~" = do not, "Tank~ki-hu~" = you (pl.) marry, "al-Musy-ri-ki~na" = the polytheists, "Hat-ta~" = until, "Yuu-mi-nu~" = they believe/have Faith.
"Wa La~ Tank~ki-hul-Musy-ri-ki~na Hat-ta~  Yuu-mi-nu~". = And do not ever marry disbelievers until they believe/have Faith.
(This verse is a Commandment that we, Believers cannot and must not marry the Polytheists/people who believe in many gods, and/or in idols. Those believe in Trinity, are considered as Polytheists. But in verse 5, surah 5 Al-Maidah, Allah s.w.t. Say, "(It is lawful to you) the virtuous women/girls of the Believers and the virtuous women/girls of those who received the Scriptures before you when you have given them their dowries (in Islam, it the man/bridegroom who gives money, property and so forth to the bride when he marries her, and not the other way round) with the intent of marrying them, not with the intent of committing adultery nor to take them as concubines/ mistresses.".
This verse, "And do not ever marry feminine disbelievers until they believe/have Faith", Ali bin Abi Tolhah narrated from Ibnu 'Abbas that in this case, Allah Have exempted the Faminine People of the Scriptures. But Abu Jaafar ibnu Jarir said, "Umar (ibnu Al-Khottob) forbade  (Muslimin from marrying the Feminine People of the Scriptures) so that Muslimin do not leave/ignor the Muslimah/ Feminine Believers". 
Bukhori narrated that Ibnu 'Umar said, "I do not know of any greater "Syirik"/polytheist/to ascribe partners to Allah than a woman who confessed that Jesus as her Lord". [Do we not agree?].
(to be continued).
Until we meet again in the next session, see you all Quran Lovers later.
