Al Hadid Ayah 27

ثُمَّ قَفَّيْنَا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَـٰرِهِم بِرُسُلِنَا وَقَفَّيْنَا بِعِيسَى ٱبْنِ مَرْيَمَ وَءَاتَيْنَـٰهُ ٱلْإِنجِيلَ وَجَعَلْنَا فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُوهُ رَأْفَةً وَرَحْمَةً وَرَهْبَانِيَّةً ٱبْتَدَعُوهَا مَا كَتَبْنَـٰهَا عَلَيْهِمْ إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ رِضْوَٲنِ ٱللَّهِ فَمَا رَعَوْهَا حَقَّ رِعَايَتِهَا‌ۖ فَـَٔـاتَيْنَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مِنْهُمْ أَجْرَهُمْ‌ۖ وَكَثِيرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فَـٰسِقُونَ ٢٧ Then in the footsteps of these ?prophets?, We sent Our messengers, and ?after them? We sent Jesus, son of Mary, and granted him the Gospel, and instilled compassion and mercy into the hearts of his followers. As for monasticism, they made it up—We never ordained it for them—only seeking to please Allah, yet they did not ?even? observe it strictly. So We rewarded those of them who were faithful. But most of them are rebellious.
