Nabi
‘Isa [a] saw the wickedness of
the Jews. He saw how they mis-
chieviously mixed idol-worship with
the pure message of Musa [a], and
how they changed the Book of
Allah, the heavenly Tawrah.
He saw there cruelty and their dis-
belief, their selfishness and greed,
but what angered him most was
their haughty, puffed-up pride.
And so
Nabi
‘Isa [a] began his mis-
sion, to call the Jews and all his
people, to Allah and to His religion,
to the way of their father Adam [a],
and to submission.
He reminded them of their ances-
tors, the Prophets Ibrahim [a] and
Musa [a], of their piety and their
goodness and their love for their
Lord, Allah.
