The Holy Quran 3:80 — Surah Ali 'Imran

Arabic text

وَلَا يَأْمُرَكُمْ أَن تَتَّخِذُوا۟ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ وَٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ أَرْبَابًا ۗ أَيَأْمُرُكُم بِٱلْكُفْرِ بَعْدَ إِذْ أَنتُم مُّسْلِمُونَ

Translation

And he (the Prophet) will not instruct you to take the angels and the Ambiyaa as gods. Would he instruct you to commit kufr after you had become Muslims? (It is clearly impossible for any Prophet to do this. Therefore, no Christian can claim that Isa عليه الصلاة والسلام instructed them to worship him, his mother or Jibra'eel عليه الصلاة والسلام).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

as, for example, the Christians made [lords] of the Messiah ﵇ and the Holy Spirit, some Jews of Uzayr ﵇, and some idolaters of the angels. If angels and prophets cannot be partners in divinity, then what do stone idols and the wood of the cross count for? that is, first he strove to make [people] rabbani (devoted to Allah)
