Surely, right has become distinct from wrong; so whosoever refuses to be led by those who transgress, and believes in Allāh, has surely grasped a strong handle which knows no breaking. And Allāh is All -Hearing, All- Knowing. ” (2 [Al -Baqarah]:257) But there is punishment for apostasy in the Bible: If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods” (gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), do not yield to them or listen to them. Show them no pity. Do not spare them or shield them. You must certainly put them to death. Your hand must be the first in putting them to death, and then the hands of all the people. Stone them to death, because they tried to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. (Deuteronomy, 13: 6-10) Death o f Jes us Note: The 30 verses marked with an asterisk, *, are those which are quoted by the Promised Messiah in his book Iz ā la Auh ā m for the death of Jesus. Death of Jesus b y Name: 1) ؕ ٌ ِیۡقَۃ ُہ ٗ صِد و َ اُم ؕ ُ ُسُل ِۡلِِ الر ٌ ۚ قَد ۡ خَلَت ۡ مِن ۡ قَب ِۡل َ رَسُوۡل مَا الۡمَسِیۡح ُ ابۡن ُ مَرۡیَم َ ا یُؤۡفَکُوۡن َ ﴿﴾ َِن ی یی ت ِ ثُم َ انۡظُر ۡ ا ۡلۡی َُہُُ ا َّی ُِ ل َ ؕ اُنۡظُر ۡ کَیۡف َ نُب َعَام ن ِ الط ی کَانَا یَاۡکُل * “ The Messiah, son of Mary, was only a Messenger; surely, Messengers like unto him had indeed passed away before him. And his mother was a truthful woman. They both used to eat food. See how We explain the Signs for their good, and see how they are turned away. ” (5[Al-M ā’ idah]:76)
