Waothkur fee alkitabi maryama ithi intabathat min ahliha makanan sharqiyyan\n16. Relate in the Book\n (The story of) Mary,\n When she withdrew\n From her family\n To a place in the East.\n17. Faittakhathat min doonihim hijaban faarsalna ilayha roohana fatamaththala laha basharan sawiyyan\n17. She placed a screen\n (To screen herself) from them;\n Then We sent to her\n Our angel, and he appeared\n Before her as a man\n In all respects.\n18. Qalat innee aAAoothu bialrrahmani minka in kunta taqiyyan\n18. She said: \"I seek refuge\n From thee to (God)\n Most Gracious: (come not near)\n If thou dost fear God.\"\n19. Qala innama ana rasoolu rabbiki li-ahaba laki ghulaman zakiyyan\n19. He said: \"Nay, I am only\n A messenger from thy Lord,\n (To announce) to thee\n The gift of a holy son.\"\n20. Qalat anna yakoonu lee ghulamun walam yamsasnee basharun walam aku baghiyyan\n20. She said: \"How shall I\n Have a son, seeing that\n No man has touched me,\n And I am not unchaste?\"\n21. Qala kathaliki qala rabbuki huwa AAalayya hayyinun walinajAAalahu ayatan lilnnasi warahmatan minna wakana amran maqdiyyan\n21. He said: \"So (it will be):\n Thy Lord saith, \"That is\n Easy for Me: and (We\n Wish) to appoint him\n As a Sign unto men\n And a Mercy from Us\":\nIt is a matter\n (So) decreed.\"\n22. Fahamalat-hu faintabathat bihi makanan qasiyyan\n22. So she conceived him,\n And she retired with him\n To a remote place.\n23. Faajaaha almakhadu ila jithAAi alnnakhlati qalat ya laytanee mittu qabla hatha wakuntu nasyan mansiyyan\n23. And the pains of childbirth\n Drove her to the trunk\n Of a palm-tree:\n She cried (in her anguish):\n \"Ah! would that I had\n Died before this! would that\n I had been a thing\n Forgotten and out of sight!\"\n24. Fanadaha min tahtiha alla tahzanee qad jaAAala rabbuki tahtaki sariyyan\n24. But (a voice) cried to her\n From beneath the (palm-tree):\n \"Grieve not! for thy Lord\n Hath provided a rivulet\n Beneath thee;\n25. Wahuzzee ilayki bijithAAi alnnakhlati tusaqit AAalayki rutaban janiyyan\n25. \"And shake towards thyself\n The trunk of the palm-tree:\n It will let fall\n Fresh ripe dates upon thee\n26. Fakulee waishrabee waqarree AAaynan fa-imma tarayinna mina albashari ahadan faqoolee innee nathartu lilrrahmani sawman falan okallima alyawma insiyyan\n26. \"So eat and drink\n And cool (thine) eye.\n And if thou dost see\n Any man, say, 'I have\nVowed a fast to (God)\n Most Gracious, and this day\n Will I enter into no talk\n With any human being'\"\n27. Faatat bihi qawmaha tahmiluhu qaloo ya maryamu laqad ji/ti shay-an fariyyan\n27. At length she brought\n The (babe) to her people,\n Carrying him (in her arms).\n They said: \"O Mary!\n Truly an amazing thing\n Hast thou brought!\n28. Ya okhta haroona ma kana abooki imraa saw-in wama kanat ommuki baghiyyan\n28. \"O sister of Aaron!\n Thy father was not\n A man of evil, nor thy\n Mother a woman unchaste!\"\n29. Faasharat ilayhi qaloo kayfa nukallimu man kana fee almahdi sabiyyan\n29. But she pointed to the babe.\n They said: \"How can we\n Talk to one who is\n A child in the cradle?\"\n30. Qala innee AAabdu Allahi ataniya alkitaba wajaAAalanee nabiyyan\n30. He said: \"I am indeed\n A servant of God:\n He hath given me\n Revelation and made me\n A prophet;\n31. WajaAAalanee mubarakan aynama kuntu waawsanee bialssalati waalzzakati ma dumtu hayyan\n31. \"And He hath made me\n Blessed wheresoever I be,\nAnd hath enjoined on me\n Prayer and Charity as long\n As I live;\n32. Wabarran biwalidatee walam yajAAalnee jabbaran shaqiyyan\n32. \"(He) hath made me kind\n To my mother, and not\n Overbearing or miserable;\n33. Waalssalamu AAalayya yawma wulidtu wayawma amootu wayawma obAAathu hayyan\n33. \"So Peace is on me\n The day I was born,\n The day that I die,\n And the day that I\n Shall be raised up\n To life (again)\"!\n34. Thalika AAeesa ibnu maryama qawla alhaqqi allathee feehi yamtaroona\n34. Such (was) Jesus the son\n Of Mary: (it is) a statement\n Of truth, about which\n They (vainly) dispute.\n35. Ma kana lillahi an yattakhitha min waladin subhanahu itha qada amran fa-innama yaqoolu lahu kun fayakoonu\n35. It is not befitting\n To (the majesty of) God\n That He should beget\n A son. Glory be to Him!\n When He determines\n A matter, He only says\n To it, \"Be\", and it is.\n36. Wa-inna Allaha rabbee warabbukum faoAAbudoohu hatha siratun mustaqeemun\n36. Verily God is my Lord\n And your Lord: Him\nTherefore serve ye: this is\n A Way that is straight.\n37. Faikhtalafa al-ahzabu min baynihim fawaylun lillatheena kafaroo min mashhadi yawmin AAatheemin\n37. But the sects differ\n Among themselves: and woe\n To the Unbelievers because\n Of the (coming) Judgment\n Of a momentous Day!\n38. AsmiAA bihim waabsir yawma ya/toonana lakini alththalimoona alyawma fee dalalin mubeenin\n38. How plainly will they see\n And hear, the Day that\n They will appear before Us!\n But the unjust to-day\n Are in error manifest!\n39. Waanthirhum yawma alhasrati ith qudiya al-amru wahum fee ghaflatin wahum la yu/minoona\n39. But warn them of the Day\n Of Distress, when\n The matter will be determined:\n For (behold,) they are negligent\n And they do not believe!\n40. Inna nahnu narithu al-arda waman AAalayha wa-ilayna yurjaAAoona\n40. It is We Who will inherit\n The earth, and all beings\n Thereon: to Us will they\n All be returned.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XIX.: Maryam, or Mary.: Section 2 (16-40)","type":"page"}
