Al-Ma'idah 5:18 وقالت اليهود والنصارى نحن ابناء الله واحباوه قل فلم يعذبكم بذنوبكم بل انتم بشر ممن خلق يغفر لمن يشاء ويعذب من يشاء ولله ملك السماوات والارض وما بينهما واليه المصير ١٨
وَقَالَتِ
ٱلۡيَهُودُ
وَٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰ
نَحۡنُ
أَبۡنَٰٓؤُاْ
ٱللَّهِ
وَأَحِبَّٰٓؤُهُۥۚ
قُلۡ
فَلِمَ
يُعَذِّبُكُم
بِذُنُوبِكُمۖ
بَلۡ
أَنتُم
بَشَرٞ
مِّمَّنۡ
خَلَقَۚ
يَغۡفِرُ
لِمَن
يَشَآءُ
وَيُعَذِّبُ
مَن
يَشَآءُۚ
وَلِلَّهِ
مُلۡكُ
ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ
وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ
وَمَا
بَيۡنَهُمَاۖ
وَإِلَيۡهِ
ٱلۡمَصِيرُ

To Allah ˹alone˺ belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and everything in between. And to Him is the final return.”
