43:16
English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
And a portion of His servants they assert to be His children. Indeed man is clearly ungrateful.
English - Five Volume Translation
And they assign to him a portion of His servants as His children. Indeed man is clearly ungrateful.[3652]
Commentary:
The Surah had opened with the subject of revelation, of which the basic purpose is the establishment of Divine Unity. This and the following few verses repudiate the idolatrous doctrine of assigning sons and daughters to God.
English - Short Commentary Translation
And they assign to Him a part of His servants as His children.[2672A] Indeed man is manifestly ungrateful.
The reference is to the Christian doctrine of Jesus being God’s son.
