The Children of Israel scatter throughout the Land Allah tells; وَقَطَّعْنَاهُمْ فِي الَارْضِ أُمَمًاAnd We have broken them (the Jews) up into various separate groups on the earth:Allah states that He divided the Jews into various nations, sects and groups,وَقُلْنَا مِن بَعْدِهِ لِبَنِى إِسْرَءِيلَ اسْكُنُواْ الاٌّرْضَ فَإِذَا جَأءَ وَعْدُ الاٌّخِرَةِ جِيْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًاAnd We said to the Children of Israel after him (after Musa died):"Dwell in the land, then, when the final and the last promise comes near, We shall bring you altogether as a mixed crowd (gathered out of various nations)." (17:104)مِّنْهُمُ الصَّالِحُونَ وَمِنْهُمْ دُونَ ذَلِكَsome of them are righteous and some are away from that,some of them are led aright and some are not righteous, just as the Jinns declared,وَأَنَّا مِنَّا الصَّـلِحُونَ وَمِنَّا دُونَ ذَلِكَ كُنَّا طَرَايِقَ قِدَداً"There are among us some that are righteous, and some the contrary; we are groups having different ways (religious sects)."
