[[Shi'a]] and [[Sunni]] commentators believe that this verse is about the debate between the [[Prophet (s)]] and the Christians of [[Najran]] in which they insisted on their idea that [[Jesus (a)]] is one of the three personifications of God and that they did not accept the [[revelation]] of the [[Qur'an]] which referred to Jesus (a) as merely a pious servant and a [[messenger of God (s)]]. Once they rejected the arguments proposed by the Holy Prophet (s), he invited them to attend [[Mubahala]] (a mutual curse).<ref>''Qurʾān'', Translated by Khurramshāhī, under al-Mubāhala 'verse, p. 57.</ref> | [[Shi'a]] and [[Sunni]] commentators believe that this verse is about the debate between the [[Prophet (s)]] and the Christians of [[Najran]] in which they insisted on their idea that [[Jesus (a)]] is one of the three personifications of God and that they did not accept the [[revelation]] of the [[Qur'an]] which referred to Jesus (a) as merely a pious servant and a [[messenger of God (s)]].
