Ali Unal

Say: "Do you dispute with us concerning God (as if He had said Paradise is only for the Jews or the Christians) seeing that He is our Lord and your Lord (He has created and provides for us as well as for you).

It is we who are sincere to Him (in believing in Him and worshipping Him exclusively)."
