Tafsir
Scholars largely agree on this ayah
And they say ‘The Compassionate One has taken a son’ from the angels. Glory be to Him! Nay but they are merely servants who are honoured in His presence; for the very servitude of all creatures to Him is inconsistent with the attribution of any of them as progeny of His.
