Dr. Mohsin : He it is Who drove out the disbelievers among the people of the Scripture (i.e. the Jews of the tribe of Banu An-Nadîr) from their homes at the first gathering.

Then take admonition, O you with eyes (to see).

So learn a lesson, O ye who have eyes!

Take warning then, O ye with eyes (to see)!
