The Messiah, whom you claim is a Allahu ta’ālā, would never disdain, [would never] scorn or reject haughtily, to be a servant of Allahu ta’ālā, neither would the angels who are nigh, to Allahu ta’ālā, disdain to be servants: this is a splendid digression [to the matter of the angels], and it is mentioned as a refutation of those who claim that they [the angels] are gods or the daughters of Allahu ta’ālā, just as He refuted, with what was stated before, the Christians who claim that which is the subject of the address to them [above]. Whoever disdains to worship Him, and waxes proud, He will assuredly muster them to Him, all of them, in the Hereafter.
