Dear Quran Lovers,
Let us continue to recite surah 2 Al-Baqoroh, synopsis of Islam, verse 213:
أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
(213) وَمَا اُخْتَلَفَ فِيهِ إِلَّا اُلَّذِينَ أُوتُوهُ = "Wa Makh-ta-la-fa Fi~ Hi Il-lal-La-dzi~na U~tu~ Hu",  = "Wa" = and, "Ma~" = no, "ikh-ta-la-fa" = they differ, "Fi~ Hi" = in it, "il-la~" = except, "al-La-dzi~na" = who, "U~tu~" = receive, "Hu" = it,
مِنم بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُمُ اُلْبَيِّنَتُ بَغْيَام بَيْنَهُمْ = "Mim~Baa-di Ma~ Ja~~at Hu-mul-Bai-yi-na~tu Bagh-yam~Bai-na Hum". = "Min" = from, "Baa-di" = after, "Ma~" = what, "Ja~~at" = to receive, "Hu-mu" = them, "al-Bai-yi-na~tu" = clear, "Bagh-yan" = malice, grudge, "Bai-na" = between, "Hum" = them.
"Wa Makh-ta-la-fa Fi~ Hi Il-lal-La-dzi~na U~tu~ Hu Mim~Baa-di Ma~ Ja~~at Hu-mul-Bai-yi-na~tu Bagh-yam~Bai-na Hum". =  There is no difference in It/the Scripture, except in those who received it. After receiving the clear explanation/information, it was they who created the disagreement because of malice.
صلى = a Waqof Jaiz sign.
فَهَدَى اُللهُ اُلَّذِين ءَامَنُواْ لِمَا اُخْتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ مِنَ اُلْحَقِّ بِإِذْنِهِى = "Fa Ha-dal-Lohul-La-dzi~na A~ma-nu~ Li Makh-ta-la-fu~ Fi~ Hi Mi-nal-Haq-qi Bi Idz-nih". = "Fa" = Then, "Ha-da~" = to guide, "Al-Lohu" = Allah, "al-La-dzi~na" = those who  are, "A~ma-nu~" = Believers, "Li Ma~" = of what, "ikh-ta-la-fu~" = they differ, "Fi~ Hi" = in it, "Mi-na" = of, "al-Haq-qi" = the Truth, "Bi" = by, "Idz-ni" = leave, permission, "Hi~" = His.
"Fa Ha-dal-Lohul-La-dzi~na A~ma-nu~ Li Makh-ta-la-fu~ Fi~ Hi Mi-nal-Haq-qi Bi Idz-nih". =  Then Allah showed the Truth to the Believers who He willed about the disagreement they had between them.
وَاُللهُ يَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ إِلَى صِرَطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ = "Wal-Lohu Yah-di~ Mai~Ya-sya~~u I-la~ SHi-ro~tim~Mus-ta-qi~~m". = "Wa" = And, "Al-Lohu" = Allah, "Yah-di~" = He guides, "Man" = who, "Ya-sya~~u" = He wish, "I-la~" = to, "SHi-ro~tin" = way, path, "Mus-ta-qi~min" = straight.
"Wal-Lohu Yah-di~ Mai~ya-sya~~u I-la~ SHi-ro~tim~Mus-ta-qi~~m". =  And Allah guide those who He wished to the straight path.
(The differences that those people had were because of their grudge against one another. [This happens at all time, as long as we are called mankind, is it not so?]. 
Zaid ibnu Aslam said: They differed about the first day of the week, the Fridays, the Jews fixed it on Saturdays, the Christians, on Sundays. Then Allah s.w.t. gave the guidance to the Ummah/ followers of the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. fixed it in Fridays. Then they differed on the Qiblat/direction faced while praying, the Christians chose the East, while the Jews chose Jerusalem, then Allah s.w.t. guided the followers of Muhammad s.a.w. to take Caaba in Mecca as their Qiblat.
They also differed in Solat/rites of praying. Some of them performed only by bowing without prostrating/be on all six, the palms, knees and toes without bowing/bending the head or the upper body at the waist. There are those who perform by prostrating only, but without bowing. There are also those who pray while talking to other people, and there are those who pray while walking. Then Allah showed the followers of Muhammad s.a.w. the proper Rites of Solat (it is the same as what the Angels perform).
They also differed in Fasting. There are some who fast only half a day. There are those who do not eat food only. Then Allah showed the Muslimin the right way to Fasting.
They also differed about Prophet Abraham a.s. The Jews said, "Abraham was a Jew". While the Chritians said, "Abraham was a Christian". But Allah told us, Muslimin, that Prophet Ibrohim/ Abraham a.s. was a "Hanif"/straight, truthful, honest and sincere and favouring the Truth person. And Allah s.w.t. had shown the Truth about Prophet Abraham a.s. to us, the Muslimin.
They also deffered about Prophet Isa/Jesus son of Mary a.s.. The Jews regard him a.s. as a Lie/false, and they accused his a.s mother, Siti Mariam/Mary or Marian had committed adultery. While the Christians made him a.s. as a god/idol and as son of god. But, indeed, Allah had created him/Isa/Jesus a.s. by His s.w.t. Word, "Kun/Be!", and put into him a.s. just like that of Prophet Adam a.s. His s.w.t. created Soul into him/Jesus a.s. Then He/Allah s.w.t. showed the followers of the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. the Truth about Jesus a.s.
