They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords in derogation of Allah, and (they take as their lord) Christ, the son of Mary; Yet they were commanded to worship but One God: There is no god but He. Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him).[Qur'an 9:31]

Narrated Abu Musa Al-Ashari(RA): The Prophet(PBUH) said, "None is more patient than Allah against the harmful and annoying words He hears (from the people): They ascribe children to Him, yet He bestows upon them health and provision."
