Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
We then sent Our other Noble Messengers
after them following their footsteps, and after them We sent Eisa, the
son of Maryam, and bestowed the Injeel to him; and We instilled compassion
and mercy in the hearts of his followers; and they invented monasticism
which We had not ordained upon them only to seek Allah's pleasure, then
did not properly abide by it as it should have been rightfully abided;
We therefore gave the believers among them their reward; and many of them
are sinners.
