Verse (3:79)

The analysis above refers to the 79th verse of chapter 3 (sūrat āl ʿim'rān):

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