يَا أَيُّهَا
الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا
أَطِيعُوا
اللَّهَ
وَأَطِيعُوا
الرَّسُولَ
وَأُولِي
الْأَمْرِ
مِنكُمْ
فَإِن
تَنَازَعْتُمْ
فِي
شَيْءٍ
فَرُدُّوهُ
إِلَى
اللَّهِ
وَالرَّسُولِ
إِن
كُنتُمْ
تُؤْمِنُونَ
بِاللَّهِ
وَالْيَوْمِ
الْآخِرِ
ذَلِكَ
خَيْرٌ
وَأَحْسَنُ
تَأْوِيلًا

Believers, obey God, His Messenger, and your (qualified) leaders. If you have faith in God and the Day of Judgment, refer to God and His Messenger concerning matters in which you differ. This would be a more virtuous and a better way of settling differences.
