The Holy Quran 2:117 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

بَدِيعُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ وَإِذَا قَضَىٰٓ أَمْرًا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ

Translation

(Allaah is) The Creator of the heavens and the earth (without copying a previous example). When He decides (to create or ordain) something, He merely says, "Be!" and it becomes (what He wanted).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The Jews called Uzayr ﵇ the son of Allah, and the Christians called Isa ﵇ so. Almighty Allah says that His Being is free of all [such] things; rather, all of them without exception are His possession, obedient to Him and created by Him.
