It is not for a human [prophet] that Allāh should give him the Scripture and authority and prophethood and then he would say to the people, "Be servants to me rather than Allāh," 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."

ஒரு மனிதருக்கு அல்லாஹ் வேதத்தையும், ஞானத்தையும், நபிப் பட்டத்தையும் கொடுக்க, பின்னர் அவர் "அல்லாஹ்வை விட்டு எனக்கு அடியார்களாகி விடுங்கள்" என்று (பிற) மனிதர்களிடம் கூற இயலாது. ஆனால் அவர் (பிற மனிதரிடம்) "நீங்கள் வேதத்தைக் கற்றுக் கொடுத்துக் கொண்டும், அ(வ்வேதத்)தை நீங்கள் ஓதிக் கொண்டும் இருப்பதனால் ரப்பானீ (இறைவனை வணங்கி அவனையே சார்ந்திருப்போர்)களாகி விடுங்கள்" (என்று தான் சொல்லுவார்).

කෙනෙකුට ධර්ම ග්‍රන්ථය ද ප්‍රඥාව ද නබිත්වය ද පිරිනමා තිබිය දී, ඉන් අනතුරුව අල්ලාහ්ව හැර දමා මට ම දාසයින් වී සිටිනු යැයි ජනයාට පැවසීමට කිසිදු මිනිසෙකුට බලයක් නැත. එහෙත් දේව ග්‍රන්ථය නුඹලා උගන්වමින් සිටින බැවින් ද, නුඹලා ඉගෙන ගනිමින් සිටින බැවින් ද නුඹලා ගැඹුරු ප්‍රඥාවෙන් යුත් විද්වතුන් වනු. (යැයි ඔහු පවසනු ඇත)
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
کسی ایسے انسان کو جسے اللہ تعالیٰ کتاب وحکمت اور نبوت دے، یہ ﻻئق نہیں کہ پھر بھی وه لوگوں سے کہے کہ تم اللہ تعالیٰ کو چھوڑ کر میرے بندے بن جاؤ ، بلکہ وه تو کہے گا کہ تم سب رب کے ہو جاؤ، تمہارے کتاب سکھانے کے باعﺚ اور تمہارے کتاب پڑھنے کے سبب۔

啓典と英知と預言者としての天分をアッラーからいただいた一人の人間でありながら,後になって人びとに向い,「あなたがたはアッラーの外に,わたしを崇拝しなさい。」とは言えない 。むしろ「あなたがたは,主の忠実なしもベとなりなさい。あなたがたは啓典を教えられているのである。それを誠実に学びなさい。」と(言うべきである)。

一个人既蒙真主赏赐经典,智慧和预言,他不至对世人说:你们做我的奴仆,不要做真主的奴仆。但(他必说):你们当做崇拜造物主的人,因为你们教授天经,诵习天经。

Tafsir of 3:79

No Prophet Ever Called People to Worship him or to Worship Other Than Allah This Ayah 3:79 means, it is not for a person whom Allah has given the Book, knowledge in the Law and prophethood to proclaim to the people, "Worship me instead of Allah," meaning, along with Allah. If this is not the right of a Prophet or a Messenger, then indeed, it is not the right of anyone else to issue such a claim. This criticism refers to the ignorant rabbis, priests and teachers of misguidance, unlike the Messengers and their sincere knowledgeable followers who implement their knowledge; for they only command what Allah commands them, as their honorable Messengers conveyed to them. They also forbid what Allah forbade for them, by the words of His honorable Messengers. The Messengers, may Allah's peace and blessings be on all of them, are the emissaries between Allah and His creation, conveying Allah's Message and Trust. The messengers indeed fulfilled their mission, gave sincere advice to creation and conveyed the truth to them.…
