Ayah 79
Surah Aal-i-Imraan
It is not for a human [prophet] that Allah should give him the Scripture and authority and prophethood and then he would say to the people, "Be servants to me rather than Allah," but [instead, he would say], "Be pious scholars of the Lord because of what you have taught of the Scripture and because of what you have studied."﴿79﴾
Translation
It is not for a human [prophet] that Allah should give him the Scripture and authority and prophethood and then he would say to the people, "Be servants to me rather than Allah," but [instead, he would say], "Be pious scholars of the Lord because of what you have taught of the Scripture and because of what you have studied."
Simplified Tafsir
ما ينبغي لأحد من البشر أن يُنزِّل الله عليه كتابه ويجعله حكمًا بين خلقه ويختاره نبياً، ثم يقول للناس: اعبدوني من دون الله، ولكن يقول: كونوا حكماء فقهاء علماء بما كنتم تُعَلِّمونه غيركم من وحي الله تعالى، وبما تدرسونه منه حفظًا وعلمًا وفقهًا.
