109. Have no doubt as to what they (the idolaters) worship. They worship nothing but what they fathers worshipped before (them). We shall pay them back (infull) their portion (of the penalty) undiminished. 110. We certainly gave the Scripture to Moses, but differences arose about it. Had a decree not already gone forth from your Lord the case would have been judged between them. They are in grave doubt concerning it. 111. And, surely to all (men) your Lord will pay back in full (the recompense) of their deeds, for He is Knower of all that they do. 112. Therefore stand firm (in the straight path) as you are commanded, together with those who turn to Allah. And do not transgress. For He is Seer of all that they do. (As the companions of the Prophet have told us, no verse made the Blessed Prophet more anxious than this. Once he said: "The Surah of Hud has turned my hair grey". For this verse is the essence of religion. To recognize God demands that one follows His commandments, and walk His path. While for the Blessed Prophet, whose whole life was an act of sincere worship, this was not difficult, he is here commanded to stand firm "together with those who turn to Allah", namely, the believers. And not all such were firmly established on the path of light, purity and goodness. It was this anxiety which rendered his hair grey. Such was his concern for us. May the Lord bless him, and grant him peace!)
