Translation

(And Jesus said) “Certainly, Allah is my Lord, and your Lord. So, worship Allah. This is the straight path.”

Tafsir

Hazrat Jesus 'alaihis-salâm' also said this so that people would not be misled. Allah is my Lord and He is your Lord. One of the names of Allah is Rab. Rab means to create, to create out of nothing. Therefore, when he says, "My Lord and your Lord," he means that Allah created all things out of nothing and that He is the sole and absolute owner and ruler of all that is created. He speaks in this way to prevent people from speaking wrongly.

Therefore, Allah alone is worthy of worship. O people! Serve Allah in this situation. Do not go beyond what Allah has revealed. Do not associate partners with Allah. Eat and drink of the clean and pure sustenance that Allah has provided and give thanks to Allah.

What is said in the video

Surah Maryam, verse 36. Jesus also said this: Indeed Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So serve Him. This is the straight path. Of course, Allah Almighty is not the Lord of the prophets alone. Allah Almighty is the Lord of all He created, the Lord of them all. Surely those prophets came to make our Lord known to us, to make Him known as our Lord, as one, as one god, as the Owner of the worlds. Why? Because Allah Almighty, as envoys of His essence, shows them certain realms, shows them the truth while they are in the worldly realm, trains them, and after training them, as envoys, so that His other servants know their Lord, in a hidden realm He wants them to believe in their Lord.

Yes. What does Surah Maryam, in verse 36, say? Jesus also said this: indeed Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So serve Him; this is the straight path. So that people would not fall into error, Jesus also said this: Allah is my Lord and your Lord. One of Allah's names is Rabb. Rabb means bringing into being from nothing, creating. So when he says "my Lord and your Lord," that Allah brought beings from nothing into existence and is the one and absolute owner and ruler of all these created things is what he declared. Speaking this way was to prevent people's wrong talk. So the only one worthy of worship is Allah.

O people, in that case serve Allah, do not go beyond what Allah has made known, do not ascribe partners to Allah, eat and drink of the clean and lawful provisions Allah has given, and give thanks to Allah.
