iends beside Him (say): We worship them only that they may
bring us near unto Allah. Lo! Allah will judge between them concerning
that wherein they differ. Lo! Allah guideth not him who is a liar, an
ingrate.

S: Now, surely, sincere obedience is due to Allah (alone) and (as for)
those who take guardians besides Him, (saying), We do not serve them
save that they may make us nearer to Allah, surely Allah will judge
between them in that in which they differ; surely Allah does not guide
him aright who is a liar, ungrateful.

Y: Had Allah wished to take to Himself a son, He could have chosen whom
He pleased out of those whom He doth create: but Glory be to Him! (He
is above such things.) He is Allah, the One, the Irresistible.

One, the Absolute.

S: If Allah desire to take a son to Himself, He will surely choose those

term; now surely He is the Mighty, the great Forgiver.

pairs: He makes you, in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after
