35.
(Remember) when the wife of ‘Imran said: My Lord! I have vowed unto
Thee that which is in my belly as a consecrated (offspring). Accept it from
me. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Hearer, the Knower!
36. And when
she brought forth she said: My Lord! Lo! I have brought it forth a female.
And Allah knew best of what she brought forth- and the male is not as the
female; and lo! I have named her Mary, and lo! I crave Thy protection for her
and for her offspring from Satan the outcast.

Lesson
‘imra-‘atu ‘Imraana – (spouse of Imran), her name was Hunnah bint e
Faaquuz. She had made a vow unto Allah Almighty according to the custom of
her time that, which offspring was in her belly, she would set it free in the
name of Allah Almighty. It meant, “That child will use to worship Allah
Almighty and serve the Church always being free from all worldly works”. She
also prayed, “O Lord! Accept it with Your kindness from me. You are the Hearer
of my request, and You know my aim as You are the Knower”.
As though, that woman prayed hinting
for the birth of a son to her (offspring). But her hope did not come up and
absurd a daughter was born from her. Therefore, she said with grief, “My Lord!
Lo! I have brought it forth a female”. Allah Almighty commanded her that her
daughter was very auspicious, she did not know that her daughter would bring
forth a blessed and honorable son (Prophet Jesus Christ (peace be upon him).
Wife of Imran requested
God Almighty, “I have named her Mary, and I crave Your protection for her and
for her offspring from Satan the outcast”. Allah Almighty accepted her request.
We have learnt from this narration that, “Although each kind of badness had
been grown in the children of Israel in those days, but even then some persons
out of them were present who used to love Allah Almighty and they used to endow
their children for religious duty.
LESSON # 351 FROM HOLY QUR’AN
Sustenance Of Mary
Who Nourished Mary?
Arrangement For Growth Of Mary
Zachariah Was Appointed To Bring Up
Mary
Surah ‘Aali ‘Imran (The Family Of
‘Imran, Chapter - 3)
Verse – 37 of 200, Section
–4 (Part – 3)
|
And her Lord
accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to her a goodly growth; and
made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah went into the sanctuary where
she was, he found that she had food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee
this (food)? She answered: It is from Allah. Surely Allah giveth without
stint to whom He will.

Lesson
Zakariyyaa – (Zachariah (peace be upon him) was a Prophet of Allah
Almighty. He was husband of the mother’s sister of Mary (maternal uncle). After
the expiry of Imran, (the father of Mary) Zachariah (peace be upon
them) became chief of the nation.
‘al- Mihraaba – (the sanctuary), an asylum, a separate place for somebody’s living
alone for worship. Mihraab of Masjid (Mosque)
is also called by this name because Imam (the spiritual
leader) stands alone in front of all the people separately to guide them for
prayer.
Although female was not accepted to
attend the temple (haikal), however Allah Almighty accepted the prayer of Mary’s
mother and put this matter in the hearts of attendants of the Temple of
Jerusalem (Bait ul Muqaddas) that they should accept this girl contrary
to common rules. When dissention arose between the Haikal (the
Temple) about Mary’s sustenance, then a cast was drawn and the cast came out in
the name of Zachariah (peace be upon him).
Allah Almighty grew Mary (peace be upon
her) unusually respecting spiritual, literary, corporeal and moral. Zachariah
(peace be upon him) became her guardian. He tried his best in her training.
When Mary rose a little, a separate sanctuary was specified near the place of
worship for her living. Mary (peace be upon her) used to remain there busy in
worship.
Zachariah (peace be upon him) used to
come there many times daily. Whenever he went there, he saw in the sanctuary
different kinds of food and fruit, and perplexed that by whom these things are
being delivered to Mary. Therefore, he asked Mary, “O Mary! Who gives this food
to you? She answered: It is from Allah Almighty. Allah gives without stint to
whom He wills through the unknown sources about which nobody can think.

38. Then
Zachariah prayed unto his Lord and said: My Lord! Bestow upon me of Thy
Bounty goodly offspring. Lo! Thou art the Hearer of Prayer.
39. And the
angels called to him as he stood praying in the sanctuary: Allah giveth thee

Lesson
Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon him)
used to grieve in heart looking at the condition of His (peace be upon Him)
nation and think, “Nobody seems to be the Heir of that Knowledge of
Prophet-hood which is a specified thing of the family of Prophet Abraham (peace
be upon Him) in the entire nation at this time. Will these people be deprived
from it after Me (peace be upon Him)?” He had no child in his house. His wife
was barren and he had become old. He (peace be upon Him) used to pray always,
“O Allah! Appoint someone heir of my knowledge”.
Prayer of Prophet Zachariah (peace be
upon him) was accepted. One day he (peace be upon him) was standing in His
(peace be upon Him) sanctuary for worship of Allah Almighty. An angel (peace be
upon him) called him and told, “Allah Almighty gives you glad tidings of (a son
whose name is) John.” The Angel (peace be upon him) of Allah Almighty also
described following characteristics of that blessed child:
He (peace be upon him) will confirm and
verify the Words from (orders of) Allah Almighty.
He (peace be upon him) will be lordly
and chaste.
And he (peace be upon him) will be a
Prophet of the righteous.

40. He said:
My Lord! How can I have a son when old age hath overtaken me already and my
wife is barren? (The angel) answered: So (it will be), Allah doeth what He
will.
41. He said:
My Lord! Appoint a token for me. (The angel) said: The token unto thee (shall
be) that thou shalt not speak unto mankind three days except by signs. And
remember thy Lord much, and praise (Him) in the early hours of night and
morning.

Lesson
When glad tidings was given to Prophet
Zachariah (peace be upon him) that a righteous son would be born in his house,
he (peace be upon him) was much surprised and said, “External motives about the
birth of a son do not exist, old age has overtaken me and my wife is barren.
How can the son be born”?
Allah Almighty commanded that He is not
needy of the causes. He does what He wills.
When Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon
him) relied on it, he requested, “O my Lord! Tell me any token with which I may
know that my wife will bring forth a son”. Allah Almighty described, “Token of
this glad tiding is that you will not speak with the people for three days
except by signs. So whenever you feel this condition and your tongue remembers
sincerely your Lord much, then understand it that offspring is near to be
born”. Which token was told by Allah Almighty, that had biggest excellence i.e.
that was a token as a token and worship of Allah Almighty as worship. That is
to say: on one side that became cause of information (about glad tiding
of the son) to Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon him), and on the other side
that became source of Allah’s prayer and gratitude. Along with it Allah
Almighty urged Zachariah (peace be upon him) to praise (Him) in the early hours
of night and morning in these days, and remain engaged in mentioning His
Purity.
LESSON # 354 FROM HOLY QUR’AN
Chosen Woman By God - Marry
Mary Was Made Pure By Allah
Grade Of Mary
Preference Of Mary Over Other Women
Surah ‘Aali ‘Imran (The Family Of
‘Imran, Chapter - 3)
Verse – 42 & 43 of 200,
Section –5 (Part – 3)
|
42. And when
the angels said: O Mary! Lo! Allah hath chosen thee and made thee pure, and
hath preferred thee above (all) the women of creation.
43. O Mary!
Be obedient to thy Lord, prostrate thyself and bow with those who bow (in
worship).
|

43.
Yaa-Maryamuqnutii li-Rabbiki wasjudii warka-‘ii
ma-‘ar-raaki-‘iin.
|
Lesson
‘as-tafaaki – (you are chosen), besides choosing it also means liking and
selecting. The word Mustafaa has also come out of it, which
means chosen and selected.
Holy Qur’an does not verify only past
Scriptures and Prophets (peace be upon them), but it confuted strongly also the
misunderstandings which were born about them (Heavenly Books and Prophets) and
the disbelievers had accused and charged falsely against them.
The children of Israel had published
stupid sayings about the birth of Jesus Christ, his mother (peace be upon
them), other persons of their family and likewise in connection with their
teachings. Holy Qur’an refuted all of them. Therefore, it commands that:
Allah Almighty said to Mary through His
Angels (peace be upon them) that He has chosen you to bestow His blessings and
favors. He has accepted you (peace be upon her) in His dedication and made you
pure, and has preferred you above all the women of creation. For example that,
“You will bring forth the Prophet (peace be upon them) likewise Jesus Christ
without to be touched by any male person. This beauty has not been given to any
other woman of the entire world.
Then Allah Almighty commanded Mary
(peace be upon her), “While you have been given such higher grade and honor,
you should be obedient to your Lord, prostrate yourself and bow with those who
bow in worship”.
These verses manifest that Allah
Almighty specifies the person for His favor and bounty to whom He wills. He
reveals His blessings upon him/her and bestows preference over others. The
humankind should worship their Lord, bow themselves before Him and do worship
with those who bow.
It is the best method to be grateful to
Allah Almighty. He likes very much the contribution and submission of His
servants. The person who thanks One God (Allah Almighty) on His blessings, He
reveals more blessings upon him/her.
LESSON # 355 FROM HOLY QUR’AN
Marry’s (peace be upon her) Security
Responsibility Of Mary’s Sustenance
Quarrel For Mary’s Sustenance
Who Would Nourish Mary
Surah ‘Aali ‘Imran (The Family Of
‘Imran, Chapter - 3)
Verse – 44 of 200, Section
–5 (Part – 3)
|
This is of the
tidings of things hidden. We reveal it unto thee (Muhammad), “Thou wast not
present with them when they threw their pens (to know) which of them should
be the guardian of Mary, nor wast thou present with them when they quarreled
(thereupon).

Lesson
In this verse, Allah Almighty has
described in corroboration of the claim of Prophet-hood in respect of the
Messenger of Islam, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). “We have taught him, these entire past incidents which Last Prophet
(grace, glory, blessing and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) has been
causing to hear the people. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of
Allah Almighty be upon him) has absolutely not invented them himself. Its proof
is that, the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be
upon him) is apparently altogether illiterate. He (grace, glory, blessings and
peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) never attended company of any person who
believed in one of the previous inspired Scriptures of Allah Almighty, so that
he might know from them these occurrences. Moreover, suppose! if he would have
remained with them, then you may know that those people had also not the
correct knowledge. They had fallen in whims worship. They had changed the
correct incidents. So it is clear that these entire facts, for instance; to vow
the mother of Mary, birth of Mary, acceptance of petition by Allah Almighty,
fostering and security of Mary, supplication of Prophet Zachariah (peace be
upon him), birth of John, glad tidings regarding Jesus Christ (peace be upon
them) etc. How these entire facts might be known by the Messenger, Muhammad
(grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) without the
source of the revelation from Allah Almighty”?
After adducing the above-mentioned
proof in favor of Messenger-hood of Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and
peace of Allah Almighty be upon him), Allah Almighty has begun again the
description of Mary (peace be upon her).
Mary (peace be upon her) was
accepted in vow. Then she was sent for the duty of the Temple of Jerusalem. Now
there was a problem regarding her goodly growth. It was settled that lot should
be drawn for her look after. The form of lot was proposed that all the
attendants of the Temple of Jerusalem should leave their own pens (with which
they used to write Torah) in to the flowing water. Whose pen turns towards the
direction of coming water, he would be guardian of Mary. Therefore, it was done
so. The pen of Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon him) did not flow towards
the direction of flowing water but it changed its direction and returned. So
responsibility regarding growth of Mary was given to him (peace be upon them).
Zachariah (peace be upon him) was really a well learned and one versed in
religious matters, and he (peace be upon him) was also maternal uncle of
Mary (peace be upon them). Consequently, the Right reached the Rightful with
the Will of God Almighty.
God Almighty recognized again that
Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) was
not present at that time when the attendants of the Temple of Jerusalem were
leaving their pens into the water for taking decision regarding patronage of
Mary (peace be upon her). But in spite of it, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings
and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) accrued this knowledge through the
Revelation. Even after this argument of Allah Almighty, those people who deny
the Messenger-hood of Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah
Almighty be upon him), they are astray, they have lost the Straight Path.
Severe threat is for them. It is clear evident from this verse that Holy Qur’an
is not the collection of stories and tales. It is the Book for Guidance and which
incidents and facts are written in It, those are for manifesting of its
purpose.

Lesson
Kalimatin – (a Word), according to Holy Qur’an and Sayings of the Last
Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be
upon him) Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) has been named as KalimatUllah.
As the title of Angel Gabriel (peace be upon him) is Ruuhul Qudus,
just like this KalimatUllah is the title of Prophet Jesus
(peace be upon him). Even in this manner, the Words of Allah Almighty are
uncountable, but Jesus (peace be upon him) is specifically called KalimatUllah for
the reason that his birth was without father, only by the order of Allah
Almighty, contrary to the custom. The affair, which will be contrary to reason,
custom and rules that will be attributed directly to Allah Almighty.
‘al-Masiihu – (the Messiah), this Hebrew word is a form of the word ‘Maasheikh or
‘Mashiihaa, which means, “auspicious, sacred, blessed, happy and august”
etc. Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) is usually remembered with this name.
‘Iisabnu-Maryama – (it is the second name of Messiah), ‘Iisaa has
come out from the Hebrew word ‘Iishuu’, which means Saiyid (A
lord, prince, chief, a descendant). Here this matter is meditation-able that
Holy Qur’an has kept particularly the word “’ibni-Maryam” as a part of the name of ‘Iisaa (Jesus) (peace be upon him). Therefore, his (peace be upon
him) pedigree will remain always towards his mother, Mary (peace be upon her).
Likewise, to disclose the greatness of Mary (peace be upon her) her name has
been made part of the name of Jesus (peace be upon him) for ever.
When glad tidings of Jesus (peace be
upon him) was given to Mary (peace be upon her), then it was possible that she
would have confused that, “How the people will accept him (Jesus) without
father? In addition, they will calumniate of various sorts. How might I be able
to announce for my chastity? Allah Almighty explained, “O Mary! Be satisfied, I
shall bestow him great honor not only in the Hereafter but also in this world
and prove their entire charges as false. Your son will be most polite and
righteous of higher degree. He will be still an infant that talk to the people
(in the cradle). You will have nothing to speak about your chastity and
acquittal; you would have to say only, “I have fasted today, can not speak, the
child will speak himself unto you, the mankind in his cradle and in his
manhood”.

Lesson
When God Almighty caused to hear Mary
(peace be upon her) the glad tidings about the birth of Jesus (peace be upon
him) care of the Angel (peace be upon him), she astonished and thought,
“Wonderful; how it can be? No man has touched me so far. How the birth of a
child would be possible?” Allah Almighty commanded, “There is no surprise in
it. Allah creates what He will. He is not indigent of outward motives. When He
determines to do something, He says unto it only; Be! And it is”.
This verse manifests extent of Divine
Power of Allah Almighty. He is The Cause of causes, creates the cause for
each work Himself. He created the earth, the skies and entire things of the
universe. He created one above the one item. How can He be necessitous of
causes and sources?
Allah Almighty has framed laws to run
the system of universe as; the water quenches the thirst, the hand burns
whenever someone puts it in to the fire, the human being is lost when his heart
beat stops, children will be born with the copulation of male and female. These
entire things appear in accord with ordinary manner. As per idiomatic meaning,
these are called ‘Laws of Producing’. That is to say; if any cause happens,
then any result of it comes out.
In this regard, observation of the
humankind has become so matured that he discovers cause of each result and
produces cause to accomplish each result. He becomes thunderstruck upon any
happening, if he does not find its natural or external cause.
In this verse, Allah Almighty has
adjudged this observation of the human being as false. It has been searched out
that existence of the causes has been set up only for the satisfaction of
mankind. Every thing is possible in front of extent of the Divine Power. Only
making a signal by Allah Almighty is sufficient for completion of any task.
Therefore, He commanded, “when I devise any thing, I make a signal of ‘KUN’
(Be) only unto it. As resultant, that task has been completed (And it is). I do
not need apparent causes”.

Lesson
It was described to Mary (peace be upon
her) that Allah Almighty will bestow following excellence to Jesus (peace be
upon him):
He (God Almighty) will teach him (peace
be upon him) the Scripture and Wisdom particularly the knowledge of the Torah
and the Gospel.
He (peace be upon him) will instruct
the people deepest sayings of the wisdom.
God Almighty will make him a messenger
(peace be upon him) for the Guidance of the Children of Israel.
Allah Almighty will bestow him (peace
be upon him) some miracles. He will fashion out of clay the likeness of a bird,
breathe into it and that will be a bird, by Allah’s leave.
He (peace be upon him) will say the
people, “I heal him who was born blind, and the leper by the leave of God
Almighty”.
He (peace be upon him) will also
inform the people, “I raise the dead, by Allah’s leave”.
Then he will tell them, “I announce
unto you what ye eat and what ye store up in your houses”.
Physicians and philosophers were very
powerful during the time of Prophet Jesus Christ (peace be upon him). Therefore,
he (peace be upon him) was given such miracles which might open upon the people
that he (peace be upon him) has superiority over the entire persons.

Lesson
Prophet Jesus Christ (peace be upon
him) commanded his nation, the children of Israel, “I have come confirming the
Torah which was revealed upon Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) before me. That
was revealed from Allah Almighty and that is a true Scripture. Keeping its
ordinary principles and orders firm, I shall make some changes in the
instructions by the order of Allah Almighty, which will be suitable according
to the present times. As there was some severity in a few instructions, that
will be lifted now. The things, which were made forbidden as punishment against
your wicked deeds, I shall make them lawful for you. You can use them without
any hesitation, risk and fear. And I have come towards you with a sign of
Prophet-hood and Messenger-hood from your Lord. He has bestowed me many
miracles. So keep your duty to Allah Almighty in accord with the guidelines,
illustrated by me and follow me”.
It is easily understood here that
sobriety, abstinence and piety is hidden in the
obedience of the Messenger (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him)
never says, what is not from Allah Almighty. He never delivers self-invented
order. Therefore, how it is possible that without obedience of the Messenger
(peace be upon him), the willingness and pleasure of Allah Almighty will be
acquired.
Prophet Jesus Christ described that
Allah Almighty is my Lord as well as yours’ too. My relation with Him is not as
son and father. I am His servant and He is my God (worshipped). Therefore, as I
act for His devotion, you should also worship Him. Allah Almighty be praised
upon His favors. Obeying His (God’s) orders and following me, (peace be upon
him) is the straight path.
This verse is also in continuity of
previous verses. Miraculous birth of Prophet Jesus Messiah (peace be upon him),
his teachings and miracles are being described continuously. Aim of these
entire discussions is to produce the perception of God fearing, obedience of
the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him)
and worship of True God into the human beings. The mankind might learn to bow
only in front of Allah Almighty remaining apart from the worship of other human
beings. This is the Straight Path.

52. But when
Jesus became conscious of their disbelief, he said: Who will be my helpers in
the cause of Allah? The disciples said: We will be Allah’s helpers. We
believe in Allah, and bear thou witness that we have surrendered (unto Him).
53. Our Lord!
We believe in that which Thou hast revealed and we follow him whom Thou hast
sent, so enroll us among those who witness (to the truth).
54. And they
(the disbelievers) schemed, and Allah schemed (against them), and Allah is

Lesson
‘al-Hawaa-riyyuuna – (it is plural of Hawaari which means companion,
friend, disciple, helper etc), the philosophers of the religion have different
view about the ‘al-Hawaa-riyyuun. General opinion about it is that at first two persons out of
the children of Israel believed in Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him). They were
washer-men. Due to washing the clothes, they were called Hawaarii.
Prophet Christ (peace be upon him) described them, “Come and learn from me
(peace be upon him), how to purify the hearts”. They said, “We are standing in
the service”. Therefore, they were entitled Hawaarii.
When the children of Israel disbelieved
in reply to the invitation and preaching of Prophet Jesus Christ (peace be upon
him) and he (peace be upon him) knew that those people would never accept his
religion. But they were thinking to give him pain and trouble, then he
announced, “Who will be my helpers in the cause of Allah”? Those ‘al-Hawaa-riyyuun (companions) answered to the
prophet Jesus (peace be upon him), “We will be your helpers in the religion of
Allah. We believe in Allah, and bear O Jesus our witness that we have
surrendered for the cause of Allah. We shall follow the Messenger (peace be
upon him) of God Almighty. Our Lord! We believe in that which You have revealed
and we follow him whom You have sent, so enroll us among those who witness (to
the truth).
Makarun – (scheme, plan, gait), the children of Israel began
different kinds of conspiracies and secret schemes against Prophet Jesus (peace
be upon him). To the end that they poisoned the ears of then present king, that
this person Jesus) was a mutineer of the government and wanted to change the
Torah (Scripture) (Allah forbid). The King ordered to arrest Jesus Christ
(peace be upon him). At the other hand Allah Almighty schemed Himself, which
will be discussed in the next lesson. Without any doubt, Allah Almighty is the
best of schemers. None can break it.

55. (And
remember) when Allah said: O Jesus! Lo! I am gathering thee and causing thee
to ascend unto Me, and am cleansing thee of those who disbelieve and am
setting those who follow thee above those who disbelieve until the Day of
Resurrection. Then unto Me ye will (all) return, so I shall judge between you
as to that wherein ye used to differ.
56. As for
those who disbelieve I shall chastise them with a heavy chastisement in the
world and the Hereafter; and they will have no helpers.

Lesson
When The king, whose ears were poisoned
by the disbelievers (children of Israel) (as we have learnt in the previous
lesson), sent the persons to arrest the Prophet Jesus Christ (peace be upon
him), so that he might be punished and crucified as much admonitory that other
people take it warning and give up following him (peace be upon him).
Then Allah Almighty satisfied the
Prophet Messiah (peace be upon him) and said, “I shall ruin the plans and
schemes of those people. They are thinking to kill you and destroy the purpose
of My Guidance to the people from your birth. If they did so, I (Allah Almighty)
will get back My this Blessing from them. I shall complete your life in this
world and purpose of your (peace be upon him) birth in all respect”.
“It will be done so, that I shall take
you up to Me safe and sound. They wish to crucify you (peace be upon him), We
shall bring you to heaven. They desire to disgrace you and prevent the people
to follow you. But We shall keep you out of their reach and pick you up quite
pure and innocent from their indecent environment. Despite it that you are
disgraced and the people are hindered from following you due to fear, We shall
keep overcoming your followers and believers upon the disbelievers until the
Day of Resurrection”.
“Then in the Hereafter, when the entire
human beings will return to Me, I shall judge between them as to that wherein
they used to differ. As for those who disbelieve I shall chastise them with a
heavy chastisement in the Hereafter; and they will have no helpers. And the
Believers will be given full remuneration of their good deeds”.
Undoubtedly, Allah Almighty does not
like the unjust people.
