Sura Al-Maida Sections 14-16

Sections 14-16 speak of Jesus and his mother Mary.

Sura Al Madia 16: 116-118

And behold!  God  will say:
"O Jesus he son of Mary!
Didst thou say unto men,
'Worship me and mother
as gods in derogation of God?'"
He will say: "Glory to Thee!
Never could I say
what I had no right
(to say). Had I said
such a thing, Thou wouldst
indeed have known it.
Thou knowest what is 
in my heart though I
know not what is
in Thine. For Thou
knowest in full
all that is hidden"

"Never said I to them
aught except what Thou
didst command me
to say, to witness, "Worship
God, my Lord and your Lord."
and I was a witness
over them whilst I dwelt
amongst them; when Thou
didst take me up
Thou wast the watcher
over hem, and Thou
art a witness to all things.

"If Thou dost punish them,
they are Thy servants:
if Thou dost forgive them,
Thou art  the Exalted in power,
the Wise.
