Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Do not elevate me (in praise) as much as the Christians elevated Isa ibn Maryam (peace be upon him); I am only Allah's servant and nothing more. So say: Allah's servant and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)."
