Surah 2 Al-Baqara — Ayah 137
فَإِنْ ءَامَنُوا۟ بِمِثْلِ مَآ ءَامَنتُم بِهِۦ فَقَدِ ٱهْتَدَوا۟ ۖ وَّإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَإِنَّمَا هُمْ فِى شِقَاقٍۢ ۖ فَسَيَكْفِيكَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ
നിങ്ങള് ഈ വിശ്വസിച്ചത് പോലെ അവരും വിശ്വസിച്ചിരുന്നാല് അവര് നേര്മാര്ഗത്തിലായിക്കഴിഞ്ഞു. അവര് പിന്തിരിഞ്ഞ് കളയുകയാണെങ്കിലോ അവരുടെ നിലപാട് കക്ഷിമാത്സര്യം മാത്രമാകുന്നു. അവരില് നിന്ന് നിന്നെ സംരക്ഷിക്കാന് അല്ലാഹു മതി, അവന് എല്ലാം കേള്ക്കുന്നവനും എല്ലാം അറിയുന്നവനുമത്രെ.
fa-in āmanū bimith'li mā āmantum bihi faqadi ih'tadaw wa-in tawallaw fa-innamā hum fī shiqāqin fasayakfīkahumu l-lahu wahuwa l-samīʿu l-ʿalīmu

Tafsir · Ibn Kathir (Abridged)
Allah said, if they, the disbelievers among the People of the Book and other disbelievers, believe in all of Allah's Books and Messengers and do not differentiate between any of them,
(then they are rightly guided) meaning, they would acquire the truth and be directed to it.
(but if they turn away) from truth to falsehood after proof had been presented to them,
(then they are only in opposition. So Allah will suffice you against them) meaning, Allah will aid the believers against them,
(And He is the Hearer, the Knower). Allah said,
(The Sibghah of Allah). Ad-Dahhak said that Ibn `Abbas commented, "The religion of Allah." This Tafsir was also reported of Mujahid, Abu Al-`Aliyah, `Ikrimah, Ibrahim, Al-Hasan, Qatadah, Ad-Dahhak, `Abdullah bin Kathir, `Atiyah Al-`Awfi, Ar-Rabi` bin Anas, As-Suddi and other scholars. The Ayah,
(Allah's Fitrah (i.e. Allah's Islamic Monotheism)) (30:30) directs Muslims to, "Hold to it."
