Those who disbelieve in Allah and His apostles and seek to separate Allah from His apostles, and say, ‘We believe in some and disbelieve in some’ and seek to take a way in between
— Ali Quli Qarai
Verse 150 - 151
150. "Verily those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers, and desire to make division between Allah and His Messengers, and say: 'We believe in some and disbelieve in others', and seek to choose a way in between."
151. "These are, in truth, infidels, and We have prepared for the infidels a disgraceful chastisement."
The Jews and the Christians believed in some prophets and disbelieved in some other ones. This kind of behaviour was because of their foolishly desires and bigotries, and also because of some unreasonable insularity. The verse says:
It should also be attended that the process of messenger ship is the permanent Allah's, way of treatment which are linked together like a chain, and we must believe in this process totally. 5 Therefore, Allah and His messengers are in the same row and there is no separation in between at all. Then, it is forbidden to disbelieve in Allah and the messengers, or to believe in Allah and disbelieve in some Prophets. Eclecticism and paving a way other than the way of prophets is infidelity.
