Al-Emran 50
50- AND CONFIRMING THE TORAH REVEALED BEFOREHAND, AND TO MAKE LAWFUL FOR YOU SOME OF WHAT WAS MADE UNLAWFUL FOR YOU. I CAME TO YOU WITH A SIGN FROM YOUR LORD, SO FEAR ALLAH AND OBEY ME.
The Torah was sent long before Jesus, peace upon him. The Torah had the Law sent down to Moses, peace upon him. Jesus was sent to the Children of Israel, and he was one of them. Allah the Highest tells us that Jesus, peace upon, him was sent down to confirm the Torah and its content of the Law and Commands. For some reason, the Christians consider that the presence of Jesus abolished the Torah and its Law and Commands. There is nothing Jesus or God said which leads us to this conclusion.
Jesus, peace upon him, gave the Jews a license for some foods which Allah the Highest had made unlawful for them. Some of the food was prohibited as a punishment to the Jews for doing wrong. Allah the Highest said: “BECAUSE OF THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE JEWS, WE HAVE FORBIDDEN GOOD THINGS WHICH WERE LAWFUL FOR THEM, AND BECAUSE OF THEM OBSTRUCTING ALLAH’S PATH TO MANY AND VERY OFTEN”. (S: 4 A: 160)
Jesus, peace upon him, could not have changed the Law of his own will. Changing some articles in the law does not mean abolishing the Law to be replaced with the Law of Love. We all desire love to prevail between us, however, Allah the Highest sent laws to mankind to regulate our life, marriage, divorce, trading, inheritance, is cases of disputes and crimes. Abolishing Allah’s Law, means that man has to make law instead. Mankind is changeable, and behaves according to the wishes and desires of people, which is not the object of a Law from God that is stable and unchangeable.
We see in many societies that what Allah the Highest made unlawful being legalized. Sex out of wedlock, usury, and homosexuality to mention but a few have been made Lawful. There was a time when even racial and colour discrimination were practiced widely even in churches and was even considered Christian.
In the absence of a Law from God the Almighty, mankind is free to make as much mischief as they like, even in the name of religion.
Allah the Highest also armed Jesus, peace upon him, with many miracles, as mentioned before, as an evidence of his prophecy. This should have been enough evidence for the Jews, however the majority of them did not believe.
Al-Emran 51
51- ALLAH IS MY LORD AND YOUR LORD, THEN WORSHIP HIM, THIS IS THE STRAIGHT PATH.
This is a very important statement about the relationship between Jesus, peace upon him, and Allah the Highest. Jesus, peace upon him, states clearly that Allah the Highest is his Lord. The relationship is that of a slave and His Lord and Master, not a son and father, or one and himself as in the doctrine of the trinity.
It is the same relationship between God and any of His Creation, including the prophets and messengers, peace upon them all. None of them would have felt too good to be one of Allah’s slaves: “THE MESSIAH WOULD NOT DISDAIN OF BEING A SLAVE TO ALLAH”. (S: 4 A: 172)
After Jesus has been raised to the heavens, he denied telling people that he is God or God’s son, and any responsibility for the actions of those who attach themselves to him. Allah the Highest said: “ AND ALLAH SAID: ‘O ESA THE SON OF MARIAM, DID YOU SAY TO PEOPLE: ‘TAKE ME AND MY MOTHER AS GODS INSTEAD OF ALLAH?’ HE SAID: ‘GLORY TO YOU, I WOULD NEVER SAY WHAT I HAD NO RIGHT TO SAY. IF I SAID IT, YOU WOULD HAVE KNOWN IT, FOR YOU KNOW WHAT IS INSIDE ME, BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS INSIDE YOU, YOU KNOW EVERY THING HIDDEN * I SAID TO THEM WHAT YOU COMMANDED ME TO SAY ONLY, WHICH IS TO WORSHIP ALLAH, MY LORD AND YOUR LORD, AND I WAS A WITNESS OVER THEM WHILE I WAS WITH THEM, BUT SINCE YOU CAUSED ME TO DIExxxxxx, YOU BECAME THEIR WITNESS, AND YOU ARE THE WITNESS OVER EVERY THING * IF YOU PUNISH THEM, THEY ARE BUT YOUR SLAVES, AND IF YOU FORGIVE THEM, YOU ARE THE MOST EXALTED IN POWER, THE MOST WISE”. (S: 5 A: 116-118)
After these words from Allah the Highest in these Ayahs, no further clarification is needed.
