    • 1901, Max Henning, Der Koran, 3:55 (with Yusuf Ali's translation)
      (Gedenke,) da Allah sprach: »O Jesus, siehe, ich will dich verscheiden lassen und will dich erhöhen zu mir und will dich von den Ungläubigen säubern und will deine Nachfolger über die Ungläubigen setzen bis zum Tag der Auferstehung. Alsdann ist zu mir eure Wiederkehr, und ich will richten zwischen euch über das, worin ihr uneins seid.
      Behold! God said: "O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow thee superior to those who reject faith, to the Day of Resurrection: Then shall ye all return unto me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute.
