Prophet Jesus:
„If You punish them (for their disbelief),
they surely are Your subjects,
and if You forgive them, surely You are the Almighty, the Wise."
5:118 Koran.
Then Prophet Muhammad, praise and peace be upon him, raised
his hands and supplicated: „O Allah, my nation, my nation‟ and he
wept. Thereupon Allah ordered Gabriel: „Go to Muhammad and ask
him what makes you weep?' So Gabriel went to him and the
Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, told him what he had said,
(Allah was of course aware of what had happened, but He likes us
to ask Him). Then Allah ordered Gabriel: „Go to Muhammad and tell
him: We will cause you to be pleased concerning your nation, and
will not make you sorrowful.'"
