292 Jesus, Prophet of Islam

And:

Gad has not chosen any son, and there is not any other

god as well as Him - otherwise each god would cer­

tainly have taken over what it had created, and sorne

would have exalted themselves over others. Glory be to

God above what they assert - the Knower of the Un­

seen and the Seen, may He be exalted far above the part­

ners they associate with Him! (Qur'an 23: 91-92).

And:

Surely the life-transaction is only for God. And those

who choose guardians other than Him (say), 'We only

worship them so that they will bring us nearer to God.'

• Surely God will judge between them concerning what
  they used to disagree about. Surely God does not guide
  whoever denies in disbelief. IfGod had wanted to have
  a son, He could certainly have chosen whatever He
  wanted from His creation - Glory be to Him! He is God,
  the One, the Compeller! (Qur'an 39: 3-4).

And:

Say: 'If the Merciful did havea son, then 1wouldbe the

foremost of the worshippers.' Glory be to the Lord of

the heavens and the earth, the Lord of the Throne, above

what they assert. (Qur'an 43: 81-82).

And:

And certainly if you ask them, 'Who created the heav­

ens and the earth?' they will certainly say, 'Cod.' Say:

'Do you not see, regarding whatever you pray to instead

of Gad, that ifGod wished to harm me, how could they

proteet me from His harm - or if He wished ta show

mercy ta me, how could they withhold His mercy?' Say:

'God is enough for me - in Him do those who trust put

their trust.' (Qur'an 39: 38).
