When the Jews called Mu'ādh [b. Jabal], Hudhayfa [b. al-Yamān] and 'Ammār [b. Yāsir]⁴ to [join] their religion, the following was revealed: There is a party of the People of the Scripture who yearn to make you go astray; yet they cause none to stray, except themselves, because the sin for their leading [others] astray falls upon them, while the believers do not heed them in this; but they are not aware, of this.
