Allah sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth so that He makes it victorious and dominant above all religions. It is apparent that this Ayah refers to all those who defy the religion of Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala, or revert from it. They are leaving the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad salAllahu `alayhi wa sallam, disputing among themselves and forming sects. Today, the Muslims are getting guidance from right and left. It is also said that the Ayah is about the Mushrikeen who instead of worshipping Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala have divided up their worship between various gods. When Muhammad was sent, Allah revealed to him this Ayah. Ibn `Abbas radhiAllahu `anhu commented about the Ayah that before Muhammad (salAllahu `alayhi wa sallam) was sent, the Jews and the Christians disputed and divided into sects. Ibn Katheer reports that Ayah 159 was revealed about the Jews and the Christians.
