Tafsir Muyassar
Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Saudi Arabiaلو أراد الله أن يتخذ ولدًا لاختار من مخلوقاته ما يشاء، تنزَّه الله وتقدَّس عن أن يكون له ولد، فإنه الواحد الأحد، الفرد الصمد، القهَّار الذي قهر خلقه بقدرته، فكل شيء له متذلل خاضع.

Word by wordلَّوْ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ أَن يَتَّخِذَ وَلَدًا لَّٱصْطَفَىٰ مِمَّا يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ ۚ سُبْحَـٰنَهُۥ ۖ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْوَٰحِدُ ٱلْقَهَّارُ
If Allāh had intended to take a son, He could have chosen from what He creates whatever He willed. Exalted is He; He is Allāh, the One, the Prevailing.
