64. Say: O people of the Scripture! Come to an agreement between us and you:
that we shall worship none but Allah, and that we shall ascribe no partner
Unto Him, and that none of us shall take others for lords beside Allah. And
if they turn away, then say: Bear witness that we are they who have
surrendered (unto Him).

Commentary
The
Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be
upon him) commanded to the delegation of Najraan,
“’Aslimuu” (Embrace Islam). They
said, “’Aslamnaa” (we are Muslims).
It is recognized from the dialogue that the Christians also used to claim that
they were Muslims, “We are constant upon Islam”. Like this, whenever the people
of Scripture were invited for believing the Unity of the Deity, they used to
say, “We believe in God also”. In this verse, it has been signified to their
claim, “O people of the Scripture! You and we are unanimous in the conception
on original faith of Unity (Oneness of God). This faith can make all of us one
league, provided that you and we should not change these claims. The only requirement
is that as you claim with tongue that you believe in One God, the truth of your
claim be proved also by IMPLEMENTING. Believe in His Oneness and ascribe no
partner Unto Him really. Surrender yourselves unto Him, Worship none but Allah,
and that none of you will attribute others as gods beside Allah. None should be
made His son or daughter. Do not include your will in the things, which have
been fixed by Him lawful and unlawful. Moreover, you should accept His Commands
and make not alteration into them.
But,
in spite of believing it, if they reject the Oneness of God, attribute someone
partner of Allah Almighty and turn away, then O Muslims! Say to them: O the
people of the Scripture! Bear witness that you are such people who are firm on
Islam, who have surrendered unto Allah Almighty and who are His obedient.
This verse manifests basic policy of Islam
that the Muslims are ready to cooperate with every group in the matters of
goodness and good works. If there is any form of non-cooperation with any
group, that is only form of sin, rebellion and insurrection. Islam invited also
those people of the Scripture who used to oppose it in the beginning, for
teaching and preaching about the mutual belief of the Oneness of God to come to
an agreement among the both parties.
