Dr. Shabir Ally examines Quran 9:31, which mentions people taking their priests and saints as lords besides God. Critics challenge this verse, arguing that Christians and Jews do not worship their clergy. Dr. Shabir explains this verse through a hadith in which the Prophet Muhammad clarified that prioritizing the rulings of clergy over God's word constitutes taking them as lords. He also connects this concept to the Christian idea of divinization, especially within Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy, where becoming like God is seen as a spiritual goal.
