Surah 3. Al-i'Imran, Ayah 38
| هُنَالِكَ دَعَا زَكَرِيَّا رَبَّهُ ۖ قَالَ رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِنْ لَدُنْكَ ذُرِّيَّةً طَيِّبَةً ۖ إِنَّكَ سَمِيعُ الدُّعَاءِ |
| Asad | : | In that self-same place, Zachariah prayed unto his Sustainer, saying: "O my Sustainer! Bestow upon me [too], out of Thy grace, the gift of goodly offspring; for Thou, indeed, hearest all prayer." |
| Malik | : | Thereupon Zakariya prayed to his Rabb saying: "O my Rabb! Grant me a righteous child as Your special favor; surely You hear all prayers." |
| Pickthall | : | 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. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | There did Zakariya pray to his Lord saying: "O my Lord! grant unto me from Thee a progeny that is pure; for Thou art He that heareth prayer!" 380 |
| Transliteration | : | Hunalika daAAa zakariyya rabbahu qala rabbi hab lee min ladunka thurriyyatan tayyibatan innaka sameeAAu aldduAAai |
Note - 380The birth of Mary, the mother of Jesus, of John the
Baptist, the precursor of Jesus, and of Jesus, the
prophet of Israel, whom Israel rejected, occurred in that
order chronologically, and are told in that order. They
are all inter-connected. Zakariya prayed for no ordinary
son. He and his wife were past the age of parenthood.
Seeing the growth of Mary, he prayed for some child from
Allah,- "from Thee, a progeny that is pure". To his
surprise, he is given a son in the flesh, ushered in by a
special Sign.
