53. `Our Lord, we believe in that which thou hast sent down and we follow this Messenger. So write us down among those who bear witness.' 54. And Jesus's enemies planned and ALLAH also planned, and ALLAH is the Best of Planners. 55. Remember the time when ALLAH said' `O Jesus, I will take you and raise you to Myself, and will clear thee of the charges of those who disbelieve, and will exalt those who follow thee above those who disbelieve, until the Day of Resurrection; then to ME shall be your return, and I will judge between you concerning that wherein you differ. 56. `Then as for those who disbelieve, I will punish them with a severe punishment in this world and in the next, and they shall have no helpers; 57. `And as for those who believe and do good works, HE will give them their full rewards. And ALLAH loves not the wrongdoers.' 58. That is what WE recite unto thee of the Signs and the Reminder, full of Wisdom. 59. Surely the case of Jesus is like the case of Adam. HE created him out of dust, then he said to him, "Be', and he was. 60. This is the truth from thy Lord, so be thou not of those who doubt. 61. Now whoso disputes with thee concerning him, after what has come to thee of Knowledge, say to him `Come, let us call our sons and your sons, and our women and your women, and our people and your people; then let us pray fervently and invoke the curse of ALLAH on those who lie. |
