Sura 5
Aya 117
117
ما قُلتُ لَهُم إِلّا ما أَمَرتَني بِهِ أَنِ اعبُدُوا اللَّهَ رَبّي وَرَبَّكُم ۚ وَكُنتُ عَلَيهِم شَهيدًا ما دُمتُ فيهِم ۖ فَلَمّا تَوَفَّيتَني كُنتَ أَنتَ الرَّقيبَ عَلَيهِم ۚ وَأَنتَ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَيءٍ شَهيدٌ

(Irfan-ul-Quran)

I said to them nothing except (that) which You ordered me to say: Worship (only) Allah Who is my Lord and your Lord (too). And I kept a vigilant watch over (their beliefs and actions) so long as I was among them. But when You lifted me up then You alone watched over their (affairs), and You are a Witness to everything.
