Maeda 116-118
116-AND AS ALLAH SAID: “O JESUS THE SON OF MARY, DID YOU SAY TO PEOPLE: TAKE ME AND MY MOTHER FOR TWO GODS INSTEAD OF ALLAH? HE SAID: “PRAISE BE TO YOU, I WOULD NOT HAVE SAID WHAT IS NOT TRUE, HAVE I SAID IT, YOU WOULD HAVE KNOWN IT, YOU KNOW WHAT IS INSIDE ME AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS INSIDE YOU, AND YOU KNOW ALL THAT IS HIDDEN”
117-“I SAID TO THEM WHAT YOU COMMANDED ME TO SAY; THAT IS TO WORSHIP ALLAH MY LORD AND YOUR LORD, AND I WAS A WITNESS OVER THEM WHILE IS WAS WITH THEM, AND AFTER YOU CAUSED ME TO DIE, YOU BECAME THE ONE WHO WATCHES OVER THEM, FOR YOU ARE A WITNESS OVER ALL THINGS
118-IF YOU PUNISH THEM, THEY ARE BUT YOUR SLAVES, AND IF YOU FOR GIVE THEM, INDEED YOU ARE THE MOST EXALTED AND MOST WISE
Such narration of a dialogue in the Quran does not mean that Allah the Highest was enquiring from Jesus peace upon him as to whether he said what he is supposed to have said or not. It is to state the Allah’s anger about what people said and claimed about Jesus peace upon him, and to spell out what Jesus feels about it.
Jesus peace upon him denies that he had any thing to do with his followers taking him and his mother Mary as gods instead of Allah the Highest. Like all other prophets and messengers, their job was to deliver the message and nothing more, and this is what they did, and Allah the Highest is a witness over that.
Then Jesus peace upon him shows his submission to Allah’s will, whether He punishes his followers or forgives the, Jesus accepts his will.
This Ayah “IF YOU PUNISH THEM, THEY ARE BUT YOUR SLAVES, AND IF YOU FORGIVE THEM, INDEED YOU ARE THE MOST EXALTED AND MOST WISE” used to move Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him to tear. Abd Allah Ibn Amro said: “The prophet recited “IF YOU PUNISH THEM, THEY ARE BUT YOUR SLAVES, AND IF YOU FOR GIVE THEM, INDEED YOU ARE THE MOST EXALTED AND MOST WISE” then he raised his hands and said: “My God, my nation”, then he wept. Allah said: “Gabriel, go to Mohamed and ask him- and His Lord know- what is making you weep?” Gabriel did that and Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him told him. Allah the Highest said to him: “Go to Mohamed and say: ‘Concerning your nation, we will please you and will not upset you”. (Muslim)
Abu Zar said: “On night Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him kept praying and reciting the Ayah “IF YOU PUNISH THEM, THEY ARE BUT YOUR SLAVES, AND IF YOU FOR GIVE THEM, INDEED YOU ARE THE MOST EXALTED AND MOST WISE”. In the morning I said to him: “Allah’s messenger, you kept praying using this Ayah? He said: “I asked Allah the Most Exalted and the Majestic things for my nation, and He granted them, and it will be for every one who does not worship a partner besides Allah”. (Ahmed & Nesae)
