Mthandiwe, mzalwane wethu,
“Abafazi benkaba yenu, yizinkambu zenu zokuzala. Yenzani ngazo njengoba nithanda. Zilungiseleleni ikusasa lenu. Ziqapheleni ezintweni uNkulunkulu azithiyileyo, nazi ukuthi nizobuyela kuye. (O Mprofethi wami!) Yenza izindaba ezinhle kubakholwayo!”
(Al-Baqarah, 2:223)
Kuthiwa amaJuda ayethi uma umuntu esondela kumkakhe ngemuva, ingane ezalwa izoba yimpumputhe, futhi ayethi lokhu kukhona eTorah. Lokhu kwabikwa kuMprofethi (ukuthula nokubusiswa kube kuye), wathi: “AmaJuda ayakhuluma amanga,” kwase kwembulwa leli vesi:
“O ninawo, abafazi benu yizinkambu zenu…”

Eqinisweni, igama elithi “ziraat” lisho ukutshala, futhi lisho nendawo yokutshala, isivande, okuyilokho okushiwo lapha. Ngale nkulumo, kwenziwe isifaniso lapho isitho sowesifazane sifaniswa nendawo yokutshala, isidoda sendoda sifaniswa nembewu, nengane ezalwayo ifaniswa nesivuno, ngaleyo ndlela kuchazwa indawo yokutshala uNkulunkulu ayiyalele, okusho ukuthi:
“Abafazi yizinkambu zenu, nina nizohlwanyela kubo imbewu yobuntu nobuMuslim, nizele inzalo. Ngakho-ke, yiyani ezinkambini zenu (ngaphandle kokukhohlwa incazelo yezinkambu nokuthi zizinda zokuhlanyela), ngasiphi isikhundla enisithandayo. Futhi ngalokhu, qaphelani ikusasa lenu, ningagxili ekwaneliseni izifiso zenu kuphela, kodwa zilungiseleleni ikusasa lenu ngezenzo ezilungileyo. Futhi qaphelani ukungalaleli uNkulunkulu, ningahambi endleleni eyiphutha. Futhi yazini ukuthi nina nizoze nifike kuNkulunkulu, niphume phambi kwakhe. Ngakho-ke, zitholeleni izinto ezizokwenza ubuso benu bujabule, nize nibalekele izinto ezizokwenza nibe namahloni.”
