وَقَالُواْ لَن يَدْخُلَ ٱلْجَنَّةَ إِلاَّ مَن كَانَ هُوداً أَوْ نَصَارَىٰ تِلْكَ أَمَانِيُّهُمْ قُلْ هَاتُواْ بُرْهَانَكُمْ إِن كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
١١١
-Al-Baqarah ( البقرة )

Al Qushairi Tafsir

[2:111] And they say, 'None shall enter Paradise except those who are Jews or Christians'. Such are their desires. Say, 'Produce your proof if you speak truly'.
Each sect smooth things out for itself, thinking salvation belongs to its situation, and claiming access [to Paradise] as its share. But mere guessing (ḥusbān) without the verification of proof (burhān) will not produce results (lā yaÌtī bi-ḥāṣil) nor be of any use (wa lā yaḥūz bi-?āÌil).
