Ali 'Imran 3:50

Word by word

وَمُصَدِّقًا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَىَّ مِنَ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةِ وَلِأُحِلَّ لَكُم بَعْضَ ٱلَّذِى حُرِّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ ۚ وَجِئْتُكُم بِـَٔايَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ

And [I have come] confirming what was before me of the Torah and to make lawful for you some of what was forbidden to you. And I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear Allāh and obey me.

وجئتكم مصدقًا بما في التوراة، ولأحلَّ لكم بوحي من الله بعض ما حرَّمه الله عليكم تخفيفًا من الله ورحمة، وجئتكم بحجة من ربكم على صدق ما أقول لكم، فاتقوا الله ولا تخالفوا أمره، وأطيعوني فيما أبلغكم به عن الله.
