Quran 9:31- What Does Taking As Lords Mean?
I dont see how 28 is connected to 31. Pls. explain “How do we establish that verse 28 is the only aspect of them making their rabbis lords?” It is a different paragraph, not really connected like you asked – 2 cents
And that is what that Hadith explains also that it is not just who you bow down to for “religious rituals” but also who you take your religion from (God or Priest)!
