Wa-ith qalati almala-ikatu ya maryamu inna Allaha istafaki watahharaki waistafaki AAala nisa-i alAAalameena\n42. Behold! the angels said:\n \"O Mary! God hath chosen thee\n And purified thee\u2014chosen thee\n Above the women of all nations.\n43. Ya maryamu oqnutee lirabbiki waosjudee wairkaAAee maAAa alrrakiAAeena\n43. \"O Mary! worship\n Thy Lord devoutly:\n Prostrate thyself,\n And bow down (in prayer)\n With those who bow down.\"\n44. Thalika min anba-i alghaybi nooheehi ilayka wama kunta ladayhim ith yulqoona aqlamahum ayyuhum yakfulu maryama wama kunta ladayhim ith yakhtasimoona\n44. This is part of the tidings\n Of the things unseen,\n Which We reveal unto thee\n (O Apostle!) by inspiration:\n Thou wast not with them\n When they cast lots\n With arrows, as to which\n Of them should be charged\n With the care of Mary:\n Nor wast thou with them\n When they disputed (the point).\n45. Ith qalati almala-ikatu ya maryamu inna Allaha yubashshiruki bikalimatin minhu ismuhu almaseehu AAeesa ibnu maryama wajeehan fee alddunya waal-akhirati wamina almuqarrabeena\n45. Behold! the angels said:\n \"O Mary! God giveth thee\n Glad tidings of a Word\n From Him: his name\n Will be Christ Jesus,\n The son of Mary, held in honour\n In this world and the Hereafter\n And of (the company of) those\n Nearest to God;\n46. Wayukallimu alnnasa fee almahdi wakahlan wamina alssaliheena\n46. \"He shall speak to the people\n In childhood and in maturity.\n And he shall be (of the company)\n Of the righteous.\"\n47. Qalat rabbi anna yakoonu lee waladun walam yamsasnee basharun qala kathaliki Allahu yakhluqu ma yashao itha qada amran fa-innama yaqoolu lahu kun fayakoonu\n47. She said: \"O my Lord!\n How shall I have a son\n When no man hath touched me?\"\n He said: \"Even so:\n God createth\n What He willeth:\n When He hath decreed\n A Plan, He but saith\n To it, 'Be,' and it is!\n48. WayuAAallimuhu alkitaba waalhikmata waalttawrata waal-injeela\n48. \"And God will teach him\n The Book and Wisdom,\n The Law and the Gospel,\n49. Warasoolan ila banee isra-eela annee qad ji/tukum bi-ayatin min rabbikum annee akhluqu lakum mina altteeni kahay-ati alttayri faanfukhu feehi fayakoonu tayran bi-ithni Allahi waobri-o al-akmaha waal-abrasa waohyee almawta bi-ithni Allahi waonabbi-okum bima ta/kuloona wama taddakhiroona fee buyootikum inna fee thalika laayatan lakum in kuntum mu/mineena\n49. \"And (appoint him)\n An apostle to the Children\n Of Israel, (with this message):\n \"'I have come to you,\n With a Sign from your Lord,\n In that I make for you\n Out of clay, as it were,\n The figure of a bird,\n And breathe into it,\n And it becomes a bird\n By God's leave:\n And I heal those\n Born blind, and the lepers,\n And I quicken the dead,\n By God's leave;\n And I declare to you\n What ye eat, and what ye store\n In your houses. Surely\n Therein is a Sign for you\n If ye did believe;\n50. Wamusaddiqan lima bayna yadayya mina alttawrati wali-ohilla lakum baAAda allathee hurrima AAalaykum waji/tukum bi-ayatin min rabbikum faittaqoo Allaha waateeAAooni\n50. \"'(I have come to you),\n To attest the Law\n Which was before me.\n And to make lawful\n To you part of what was\n (Before) forbidden to you;\n I have come to you\n With a Sign from your Lord.\n So fear God,\n And obey me.\n51. Inna Allaha rabbee warabbukum faoAAbudoohu hatha siratun mustaqeemun\n51. \"'It is God\n Who is my Lord\n And your Lord;\n Then worship Him.\n This is a Way\n That is straight.'\"\n52. Falamma ahassa AAeesa minhumu alkufra qala man ansaree ila Allahi qala alhawariyyoona nahnu ansaru Allahi amanna biAllahi waishhad bi-anna muslimoona\n52. When Jesus found\n Unbelief on their part\n He said: \"Who will be\n My helpers to (the work\n Of) God?\" Said the Disciples:\n \"We are God's helpers:\n We believe in God,\n And do thou bear witness\n That we are Muslims.\n53. Rabbana amanna bima anzalta waittabaAAna alrrasoola faoktubna maAAa alshshahideena\n53. \"Our Lord! we believe\n In what Thou hast revealed,\n And we follow the Apostle;\n Then write us down\n Among those who bear witness.\"\n54. Wamakaroo wamakara Allahu waAllahu khayru almakireena\n54. And (the unbelievers)\n Plotted and planned,\n And God too planned,\n And the best of planners\n Is God.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra III.: \u0100l-i-\u2019Imr\u0101n, or The Family of \u2019Imr\u0101n.: Section 5 (42-54)","type":"page"}
