Ali 'Imran 79

مَا كَانَ لِبَشَرٍ اَنْ يُؤْتِيَهُ اللّٰهُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحُكْمَ وَالنُّبُوَّةَ ثُمَّ يَقُولَ لِلنَّاسِ كُونُوا عِبَادًا ل۪ي مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ وَلٰكِنْ كُونُوا رَبَّانِيّ۪نَ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تُعَلِّمُونَ الْكِتَابَ وَبِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَدْرُسُونَۙ ۝٧٩

79It is not conceivable for any human being to whom Allah has given the Book, wisdom, and prophethood to then say to people, "Serve me alongside Allah." Rather, he says: "Be servants of the Lord, since you read and study the Book."
