لَقَد كَفَرَ الَّذينَ قالوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ المَسيحُ ابنُ مَريَمَ ۖ وَقالَ المَسيحُ يا بَني إِسرائيلَ اعبُدُوا اللَّهَ رَبّي وَرَبَّكُم ۖ إِنَّهُ مَن يُشرِك بِاللَّهِ فَقَد حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيهِ الجَنَّةَ وَمَأواهُ النّارُ ۖ وَما لِلظّالِمينَ مِن أَنصارٍ

Those who say, “The Messiah, son of Mary, is God,” are committing blasphemy. Christ said, “O Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord, and your Lord. Whoever associates partners with God, God will deny him Paradise, and his dwelling will be the Fire. The wrongdoers will have no saviors.”

لَقَد كَفَرَ الَّذينَ قالوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ ثالِثُ ثَلاثَةٍ ۘ وَما مِن إِلـٰهٍ إِلّا إِلـٰهٌ واحِدٌ ۚ وَإِن لَم يَنتَهوا عَمّا يَقولونَ لَيَمَسَّنَّ الَّذينَ كَفَروا مِنهُم عَذابٌ أَليمٌ

Those who say, “God is third of three,” are in clear disbelief. There is no god except the One God. If they don’t desist from making such statements, a severe punishment will befall those among them who disbelieve.

أَفَلا يَتوبونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَيَستَغفِرونَهُ ۚ وَاللَّهُ غَفورٌ رَحيمٌ

Won’t they repent to God and ask His forgiveness? God is Forgiving and Merciful.

مَا المَسيحُ ابنُ مَريَمَ إِلّا رَسولٌ قَد خَلَت مِن قَبلِهِ الرُّسُلُ وَأُمُّهُ صِدّيقَةٌ ۖ كانا يَأكُلانِ الطَّعامَ ۗ انظُر كَيفَ نُبَيِّنُ لَهُمُ الآياتِ ثُمَّ انظُر أَنّىٰ يُؤفَكونَ

The Messiah, son of Mary, was but a messenger, like the messengers before him, and his mother was a woman of virtue. They both used to eat food. We make the truth clear to them, yet look how they are being deluded.

قُل أَتَعبُدونَ مِن دونِ اللَّهِ ما لا يَملِكُ لَكُم ضَرًّا وَلا نَفعًا ۚ وَاللَّهُ هُوَ السَّميعُ العَليمُ

Say, “Do you worship, besides God, something that lacks the power to harm or benefit you?” But God is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

لُعِنَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا مِن بَني إِسرائيلَ عَلىٰ لِسانِ داوودَ وَعيسَى ابنِ مَريَمَ ۚ ذٰلِكَ بِما عَصَوا وَكانوا يَعتَدونَ

Those who disbelieved among the Children of Israel were cursed by the tongue of David and Jesus, son of Mary. That was because they disobeyed and used to transgress.

كانوا لا يَتَناهَونَ عَن مُنكَرٍ فَعَلوهُ ۚ لَبِئسَ ما كانوا يَفعَلونَ

They didn’t discourage each other from committing wrongs. Their deeds are reprehensible.

تَرىٰ كَثيرًا مِنهُم يَتَوَلَّونَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا ۚ لَبِئسَ ما قَدَّمَت لَهُم أَنفُسُهُم أَن سَخِطَ اللَّهُ عَلَيهِم وَفِي العَذابِ هُم خالِدونَ

You will see many of them befriending those who disbelieve. Their wickedness prompts this, which incurs God’s wrath upon them, resulting in their perpetual suffering.

وَلَو كانوا يُؤمِنونَ بِاللَّهِ وَالنَّبِيِّ وَما أُنزِلَ إِلَيهِ مَا اتَّخَذوهُم أَولِياءَ وَلـٰكِنَّ كَثيرًا مِنهُم فاسِقونَ

If they had believed in God, the Prophet, and what was revealed to him, they wouldn’t have taken them as allies. But many of them are defiant and disobedient.

لَتَجِدَنَّ أَشَدَّ النّاسِ عَداوَةً لِلَّذينَ آمَنُوا اليَهودَ وَالَّذينَ أَشرَكوا ۖ وَلَتَجِدَنَّ أَقرَبَهُم مَوَدَّةً لِلَّذينَ آمَنُوا الَّذينَ قالوا إِنّا نَصارىٰ ۚ ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ مِنهُم قِسّيسينَ وَرُهبانًا وَأَنَّهُم لا يَستَكبِرونَ

Among all the people, you will find the Jews and the polytheists to be the most hostile towards the believers. However, you will find the closest in affection to the believers those who say, “We are Christians”. This is because among them are priests and pastors, and they aren’t arrogant.
