Sura 5 Al-Ma'idah (The Table Spread), ayah 116

  1. وَإِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ أَأَنْتَ قُلْتَ لِلنَّاسِ اتَّخِذُونِي وَأُمِّيَ إِلَٰهَيْنِ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ سُبْحَانَكَ مَا يَكُونُ لِي أَنْ أَقُولَ مَا لَيْسَ لِي بِحَقٍّ ۚ إِنْ كُنْتُ قُلْتُهُ فَقَدْ عَلِمْتَهُ ۚ تَعْلَمُ مَا فِي نَفْسِي وَلَا أَعْلَمُ مَا فِي نَفْسِكَ ۚ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ

    Translation by words

    وَإِذْ
    And when
    قَالَ
    said
    ٱللَّهُ
    Allah,
    يَٰعِيسَى
    "O Isa,
    ٱبْنَ
    son
    مَرْيَمَ
    (of) Maryam!
    ءَأَنتَ
    Did you
    قُلْتَ
    say
    لِلنَّاسِ
    to the people,
    ٱتَّخِذُونِى
    "Take me
    وَأُمِّىَ
    and my mother
    إِلَٰهَيْنِ
    (as) two gods
    مِن
    from
    دُونِ
    besides
    ٱللَّهِ
    Allah?"
    قَالَ
    He said,
    سُبْحَٰنَكَ
    "Glory be to You!
    مَا
    Not
    يَكُونُ
    was
    لِىٓ
    for me
    أَنْ
    that
    أَقُولَ
    I say
    مَا
    what
    لَيْسَ
    not
    لِى
    I
    بِحَقٍّ
    (had) right.
    إِن
    If
    كُنتُ
    I had
    قُلْتُهُۥ
    said it,
    فَقَدْ
    then surely
    عَلِمْتَهُۥ
    You would have known it.
    تَعْلَمُ
    You know
    مَا
    what
    فِى
    (is) in
    نَفْسِى
    myself,
    وَلَآ
    and not
    أَعْلَمُ
    I know
    مَا
    what
    فِى
    (is) in
    نَفْسِكَ
    Yourself.
    إِنَّكَ
    Indeed, You,
    أَنتَ
    You
    عَلَّٰمُ
    (are) All-Knower
    ٱلْغُيُوبِ
    (of) the unseen.

    And (beware the Day) when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, did you say to the people, 'Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah?'" He will say, "Exalted are You! It was not for me to say that to which I have no right. If I had said it, You would have known it. You know what is within myself, and I do not know what is within Yourself. Indeed, it is You who is Knower of the unseen.

    5:116
