 مِن قَبْلُ هُدًى لِلنَّاسِ وَأَنزَلَ الْفُرْقَانَ قلى  إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِئَايَاتِ اللهِ  لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ قلى  وَاللهُ عَزِيزٌ ذُوانتِقَامٍ (4)

After the below sign Ta is an Alif Lam Syam,siyah, "-til-") = verses {N.B.

  = ( The verse, "And Allah had revealed the Torah and the Gospel before, as a guidance to Mankind", Asy-Syaikh Al-Khozin intepretated as, "That the Quran was revealed gradually (within 23 years) while the Torah and the Gospel were revealed each simultaneously. The Quran, as Allah told us in the beginning of surah 2 Al-Baqoroh, is a guidance to those who "fear" and devoted to God / Allah, while the Torah and the Gospel as guidance to all Mankind.".   Thence, when the Prophet s.a.w. was discussing with the Christians group in the mosque, Allah Said, "He / Allah revealed to you (O Muhammad) the Book / Al-Quran, with Truth confirming the Books before / prior to you. And He / Allah revealed the Torah and the Gospel preceded you as a guidance to Mankind. Then Allah explained further that He had also revealed other Books to many Prophets in the past which contained teachings that could differentiate between  right and wrong. All those Books including the Quran, the Gospel and the Torah are called the Furqon / Criterion (of right and wrong). Those who deny and reject the verses of the Quran will be severely punished for denying and rejecting the verses that teach us the Oneness and the Sacredness of Allah. Allah is Most Powerful and is Able to requite for His punishment is severe.).
  Until we meet again in the next session, Insya Allah. See all of You, Quran Lovers soon.
