Slide 5: Sura 5 Al-Ma'idah (The Table With Food) 48 (O Prophet!) to you WE have sent the Book (Al-Quran), with the truth, verifying that which came before it from the (Eternal) Book, and as guardian over it. Therefore judge between them according to what Allah has revealed, and do not follow their base desires, (thus turning) away from what has come to you of the Truth.
