Bd,
Jel; *) [so that صِبْغَةَ اللّٰهِ signifies the baptism of God, and may here be rendered We have received the baptism of God;;] the Muslims being hereby commanded to say to the Christians, “Say ye, God hath baptized us (صَبَغَنَا) with the faith, with a baptism (صَبْغَة) not like ours [i. e. not like our Christian baptism], and purified us with a purifying not like ours; ” or the Muslims being hereby commanded to say [of themselves], “God hath baptized us (صَبَغَنَا) with the faith, as a baptism (صِبْغَةً), and we have not been baptized with your baptism (لَمْ نُصْبَغْ صِبْغَتَكُمْ). ” (

tropical:) those who colour, and those who transform, information, or discourse]: El-Khat- tábee says, the meaning is, that the persons who practise the two crafts to which these words relate make many promises as to returning the goods, and often break their promises; wherefore they are said to be of the most lying of men; not that every one of them is one who lies: but he adds that it has been said to mean the moulding and colouring of speech with falsehood.
