Worship Of One God – Reply Of Jews

 

Bequest of Jacob for his Sons (L-158)

أَم كُنتُم شُهَداءَ إِذ حَضَرَ يَعقوبَ المَوتُ إِذ قالَ لِبَنيهِ ما تَعبُدونَ مِن بَعدي قالوا نَعبُدُ إِلٰهَكَ وَإِلٰهَ آبائِكَ إِبراهيمَ وَإِسماعيلَ وَإِسحاقَ إِلٰهًا واحِدًا وَنَحنُ لَهُ مُسلِمونَ133.

133.  ‘Am kuntum shuha-daaa-a’  ‘iz hazara  Ya’-quubal-mawtu,  ‘iz qaala li-baniihi  maa ta’-buduuna mim- ba’dii.  Qaaluu na’-budu ‘Ilaahaka wa ‘Ilaaha  ‘aabaaa-‘ika  ‘Ibraahiima wa ‘Ismaa-‘iila Wa ‘Ishaaqa  ‘Ilaahanw-Waa-hidaa. Wa nahnu   lahuu Muslimuun.

133.  Or were you witnesses when death approached Jacob, and he said to his sons, “What will you worship after Me?” They said, “We will worship your God, and the God of your fathers, Abraham, Ishmael, and Isaac; One God; and to Him we submit.”

  ‘Ishaaqa – (Isaac), He was second son of Prophet Abraham and younger brother of Prophet Ishmael. His mother named Saarah was the first wife of Prophet Abraham (Peace be upon them).

In this verse, the Children of Israel are being addressed that, “As you say concerning your self-made and false theories that these are from our Ancestors and you refuse from embracing Islam, were you present at that time when Prophet Jacob (Peace be upon him) asked from his sons before death about the Worshipped and they replied: We shall worship of that Worshipped (Lord) Who was being worshipped by your grandfather; Prophet Abraham, your father’s brother Prophet Ishmael and your father Prophet Isaac” (Peace be upon them).

Today, while Holy Qur’an has been inviting to the People of the Scripture towards the same religion, they have been turning away from it and going astray.

That religion, which was adopted by Prophet Abraham (Peace be upon him) and towards which Holy Qur’an has been inviting today, that is verily the worship of One God and good-deeds. Which individual or nation will turn away from these two basic principles, it will go astray, fall away from the religion of Prophet Abraham (Peace be upon him) and will be forfeited from getting the Right of Guidance. https://youtu.be/xmd6o7v7iYU
