79b. but (what he said was):
Be ye faithful servants of the Lord by virtue of your constant teaching of
the Scripture and of your constant study thereof,
80. And he commanded you not
that ye should take the angels and the Prophets for lords. Would he command
you to disbelieve after ye had surrendered (to Allah)?

Commentary
Rabbaa-niyyiina – (faithful servants of the Lord), this word has come out
from Rabb. Rabb means The Cherisher, The
Provident; God. That is to say; That Entity, Who bestowed existence to the
entire creation and universe, and granted steps for improvement and completion.
It has been
corroborated more in this verse, which was described in the previous lesson,
namely a Prophet upon whom Allah Almighty takes pity as much that He causes to
reach him up to the rank of Prophet-hood, he (peace be upon him) will never
invite the people to worship him instead of God Almighty. On the contrary, he
(peace be upon him) brings the people in Islam causing them to release from
infidelity and belief in a plurality of God Almighty. How can he (peace be upon
him) teach them about infidelity?
Holy Messenger of
Islam (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) will
say even to the Jews, “O the People of the Scripture! Which religiousness you
had earlier, there was a tradition among you to recite and teach the Scripture
that have remained no more. You can get that very earlier perfection if stay by
my side now, and become scholars, philosophers, jurists, devotees, pious
persons and God worshippers again. This opportunity can be acquired now by
means of reciting, learning and teaching the Holy Qur’an.”
The Messenger (peace
be upon Him); sent by God Almighty, cannot preach the people to make the angels
and prophets as their lords like the Christians who had appointed the Prophet
Jesus and the angel Gabriel (peace be upon Them). Moreover, one group out of
them had fixed Prophet Uzair ‘Ezra’ (peace be upon Him) and some
Idolaters had settled the angels as their lords. When the angels and Prophets
(peace be upon them) cannot be the partners in the Divinity, then in which
count are idols of stones and the wood of crucifix?
At the end Allah
Almighty commanded, “How can it be so, that a Prophet who tries to make the
people Rabbaa-nii (faithful servants of the Lord), the Muslim
and Muwahhid (believing in one God), and when they embrace, then he
(the prophet) (peace be upon Him) destroy all his labor and performance due to
bringing them towards infidelity and belief in a plurality of God Almighty?”
Like this Allah Almighty disclosed the innocence of the prophets (peace be upon
Him) openly. He refuted those entire calumnies, which the Christians had
charged falsely upon the prophets (peace be upon Him).
