The Holy Quran 23:91 — Surah Al-Mu'minun

Arabic text

مَا ٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ مِن وَلَدٍ وَمَا كَانَ مَعَهُۥ مِنْ إِلَـٰهٍ ۚ إِذًا لَّذَهَبَ كُلُّ إِلَـٰهٍۭ بِمَا خَلَقَ وَلَعَلَا بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ ۚ سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ

Translation

Allaah has not taken any son, nor are there any Aaliha (gods of worship) with Him. If there were (others sharing power with Him), then every Ilaah would have separated his creation (so that only he should have control over them) and some would overpower the others (in the fight for supremacy. This would have resulted in the system of the universe being reduced to chaos. However, since the universe is functioning smoothly, it follows that such a scenario did not occur). Allaah is Pure of the partners that they ascribe to Him (Only He is in control and is therefore the only One worthy of worship).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

لم يجعل الله لنفسه ولدًا، ولم يكن معه من معبود آخر; لأنه لو كان ثمة أكثر مِن معبود لانفرد كل معبود بمخلوقاته، ولكان بينهم مغالبة كشأن ملوك الدنيا، فيختلُّ نظام الكون، تنزَّه الله سبحانه وتعالى وتقدَّس عن وصفهم له بأن له شريكًا أو ولدًا.
