Commentary on 2:63–64
"Dan (ingatlah), ketika Kami mengambil janji darimu dan Kami angkatkan gunung (Thursina) di atasmu (seraya Kami ber-firman), 'Peganglah teguh-teguh apa yang Kami berikan kepadamu dan ingatlah selalu apa yang ada di dalamnya, agar kamu bertak-wa.' Kemudian kamu berpaling setelah (adanya perjanjian) itu, maka kalau tidak ada karunia Allah dan rahmatNya atasmu, nis-caya kamu tergolong orang-orang yang rugi." (Al-Baqarah: 63-64).
(63) Maksudnya, dan ingatlah kalian, ﴾ وَإِذۡ أَخَذۡنَا مِيثَٰقَكُمۡ ﴿ "ketika Kami mengambil janji darimu," yakni janji yang kuat lagi kokoh de-ngan menakut-nakuti mereka dengan mengangkat gunung di atas mereka, dan dikatakan kepada mereka, ﴾ خُذُواْ مَآ ءَاتَيۡنَٰكُم ﴿ "peganglah apa yang Kami berikan kepadamu" dari Taurat ﴾ بِقُوَّةٖ ﴿ "dengan teguh," yaitu dengan semangat dan usaha yang kuat serta kesabaran atas perintah-perintah Allah, ﴾ وَٱذۡكُرُواْ مَا فِيهِ ﴿ "dan ingatlah selalu apa yang ada di dalamnya," yaitu apa yang ada di dalam kitab suci kalian de-ngan cara membaca dan mempelajarinya, ﴾ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ ﴿ "agar kamu bertakwa" pada azab Allah dan murkaNya atau agar kalian menjadi golongan orang-orang yang bertakwa.
(64) Dan setelah penegasan yang kuat ini, ﴾ تَوَلَّيۡتُم ﴿ "kemudian kamu berpaling" dan kalian meninggalkan hal itu, padahal ia meng-akibatkan kalian tertimpa hukuman yang paling berat, akan tetapi ﴾ فَلَوۡلَا فَضۡلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَرَحۡمَتُهُۥ لَكُنتُم مِّنَ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ ﴿ "kalau tidak ada karunia Allah dan rahmatNya atasmu, niscaya kamu tergolong orang-orang yang rugi."

2:62
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَٱلَّذِينَ هَادُواْ وَٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ وَٱلصَّٰبِـِٔينَ مَنۡ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ وَعَمِلَ صَٰلِحٗا فَلَهُمۡ أَجۡرُهُمۡ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ وَلَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَلَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُونَ ٦٢
Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans [before Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)] - those [among them] who believed in Allāh and the Last Day and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve1.

2:63
وَإِذۡ أَخَذۡنَا مِيثَٰقَكُمۡ وَرَفَعۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمُ ٱلطُّورَ خُذُواْ مَآ ءَاتَيۡنَٰكُم بِقُوَّةٖ وَٱذۡكُرُواْ مَا فِيهِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ ٦٣
And [recall] when We took your covenant, [O Children of Israel, to abide by the Torah] and We raised over you the mount, [saying], "Take what We have given you with determination and remember what is in it that perhaps you may become righteous."
2:64
ثُمَّ تَوَلَّيۡتُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ ذَٰلِكَۖ فَلَوۡلَا فَضۡلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَرَحۡمَتُهُۥ لَكُنتُم مِّنَ ٱلۡخَٰسِرِينَ ٦٤
Then you turned away after that. And if not for the favor of Allāh upon you and His mercy, you would have been among the losers.
2:65
وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمۡتُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱعۡتَدَوۡاْ مِنكُمۡ فِي ٱلسَّبۡتِ فَقُلۡنَا لَهُمۡ كُونُواْ قِرَدَةً خَٰسِـِٔينَ ٦٥
And you had already known about those who transgressed among you concerning the sabbath, and We said to them, "Be apes, despised."
2:66
فَجَعَلۡنَٰهَا نَكَٰلٗا لِّمَا بَيۡنَ يَدَيۡهَا وَمَا خَلۡفَهَا وَمَوۡعِظَةٗ لِّلۡمُتَّقِينَ ٦٦
And We made it a deterrent punishment for those who were present and those who succeeded [them] and a lesson for those who fear Allāh.
2:67
وَإِذۡ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦٓ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَأۡمُرُكُمۡ أَن تَذۡبَحُواْ بَقَرَةٗۖ قَالُوٓاْ أَتَتَّخِذُنَا هُزُوٗاۖ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِٱللَّهِ أَنۡ أَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡجَٰهِلِينَ ٦٧
And [recall] when Moses said to his people, "Indeed, Allāh commands you to slaughter a cow." They said, "Do you take us in ridicule?" He said, "I seek refuge in Allāh from being among the ignorant."
2:68
قَالُواْ ٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّن لَّنَا مَا هِيَۚ قَالَ إِنَّهُۥ يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا بَقَرَةٞ لَّا فَارِضٞ وَلَا بِكۡرٌ عَوَانُۢ بَيۡنَ ذَٰلِكَۖ فَٱفۡعَلُواْ مَا تُؤۡمَرُونَ ٦٨
They said, "Call upon your Lord to make clear to us what it is." [Moses] said, "[Allāh] says, 'It is a cow which is neither old nor virgin, but median between that,' so do what you are commanded."
2:69
قَالُواْ ٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّن لَّنَا مَا لَوۡنُهَاۚ قَالَ إِنَّهُۥ يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا بَقَرَةٞ صَفۡرَآءُ فَاقِعٞ لَّوۡنُهَا تَسُرُّ ٱلنَّٰظِرِينَ ٦٩
They said, "Call upon your Lord to show us what is her color." He said, "He says, 'It is a yellow cow, bright in color - pleasing to the observers.'"
