The Family of ‘Imrân

Surah: 3

Ayat: 55

Verse:

(And remember) when Allah said: O Jesus! Lo! I am gathering thee and causing thee to ascend unto Me, and am cleansing thee of those who disbelieve and am setting those who follow thee above those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then unto Me ye will (all) return, and I shall judge between you as to that wherein ye used to differ.

Tafseer:

And mention when God said ‘O Jesus I am gathering you seizing you and raising you to Me away from the world without death and I am cleansing you of removing you far away from those who disbelieved and I am setting those who follow you those Christians and Muslims who believed in your prophethood above those who disbelieved in you namely the Jews becoming above them through definitive argument and the sword until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me shall be your return and I will decide between you as to what you were at variance about as regards religion.
