Commentary
At last that moment reached and the
token appeared. It was habit of Zachariah (peace be upon him) that he used to
preach and advise the people. According to custom; he came out for the same
purpose but could not speak. He (peace be upon him) was not sick but quite healthy.
He (peace be upon him) understood that mercy of Allah Almighty has been
descended.
It has been mentioned in this verse
that when Zachariah (peace be upon him) came out before the people from the
sanctuary, he signified and said: Be thankful to Allah Almighty for His bounties
in the morning and in the evening, that is to say, you should repeat with
tongue “Sub-haanAllaah” (Good God, Heavens be praised). In short, tongue
of Zachariah (peace be upon him) could not work, but he continued telling the
people with signals that which was possible to explain.
Ultimately, after completion of the
period of pregnancy, John (peace be upon him) was born and brought up among the
righteous people. When he became able to use his sense properly, at that time
he became a virtuous young man. Allah Almighty appointed him as a Prophet and
he began to do the work of his father Zachariah (peace be upon them) i.e.
preaching and advising the people. An Angel brought a Message from Allah
Almighty that: O John! Your father has become old and feeble. Allah Almighty
has bestowed you power and physical strength. You are a young man. You should
use your entire strength for acting upon the commandments mentioned in the
Scripture of God (Torah) and persuading the people also to follow the same. Now
this work is not in your father’s control. Now you should take over this
responsibility with determination and courage at the place of your father.
