Al-Ma'idah 48

وَاَنْزَلْنَٓا اِلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ بِالْحَقِّ مُصَدِّقًا لِمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ وَمُهَيْمِنًا عَلَيْهِ فَاحْكُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ بِمَٓا اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ اَهْوَٓاءَهُمْ عَمَّا جَٓاءَكَ مِنَ الْحَقِّۜ لِكُلٍّ جَعَلْنَا مِنْكُمْ شِرْعَةً وَمِنْهَاجًاۜ وَلَوْ شَٓاءَ اللّٰهُ لَجَعَلَكُمْ اُمَّةً وَاحِدَةً وَلٰكِنْ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ ف۪ي مَٓا اٰتٰيكُمْ فَاسْتَبِقُوا الْخَيْرَاتِۜ اِلَى اللّٰهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ جَم۪يعًا فَيُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ ف۪يهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَۙ ۝٤٨

48And to you We have sent down this Quran with the truth, confirming the truths in the revelations that came before it and distinguishing what is right in them from what is wrong. So judge between them by what Allah has sent down,(1) and do not follow their desires now that the truth has come to you.(2) For each of you We have laid down a law (shari'ah) and a way. Had Allah willed, He would have made you all one single community (ummah),(3) but He did not, in order to test you through what He has given you.(4) So race one another in good deeds;(5) in the end, your return is to Allah,(6) and He will inform you, one by one, of the things you differed about.(7)
