Surah Aal-e-Imran Verse 79 - English Translation by Maududi
Surah Aal-e-Imranمَا كَانَ لِبَشَرٍ أَن يُؤۡتِيَهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَٱلۡحُكۡمَ وَٱلنُّبُوَّةَ ثُمَّ يَقُولَ لِلنَّاسِ كُونُواْ عِبَادٗا لِّي مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَٰكِن كُونُواْ رَبَّـٰنِيِّـۧنَ بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تُعَلِّمُونَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَبِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَدۡرُسُونَ
It does not befit a man that Allah should grant him His Book and sound judgement and prophet-hood, and thereafter he should say to men: ´Become servants to me apart from Allah.´ He would rather say: ´Become dedicated men of Allah, in accord with the dictates of the Book you have been teaching and studying.´
