Scholars differed concerning the meaning of "those who have believed" in the verse: 1. O you who have believed, continue and persevere in your faith. 2. O you who believed in the prophets preceding Muhammad, peace be upon him. 3. An address to the hypocrites, meaning, O you who have outwardly believed, be sincere to Allah. 4. An address to the polytheists, meaning, O you who have believed in your deities, believe in Allah and His scriptures.
The first meaning is the most probable.
