Quran chapter (Mary) 19:16-36

وَٱذْكُرْ فِى ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مَرْيَمَ إِذِ ٱنتَبَذَتْ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا مَكَانًۭا شَرْقِيًّۭا ١٦

And mention in the Book ˹O Prophet, the story of˺ Mary when she withdrew from her family to a place in the east,

فَٱتَّخَذَتْ مِن دُونِهِمْ حِجَابًۭا فَأَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَيْهَا رُوحَنَا فَتَمَثَّلَ لَهَا بَشَرًۭا سَوِيًّۭا ١٧

screening herself off from them. Then We sent to her Our angel, ˹Gabriel,˺ appearing before her as a man, perfectly formed.

قَالَتْ إِنِّىٓ أَعُوذُ بِٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ مِنكَ إِن كُنتَ تَقِيًّۭا ١٨

She appealed, “I truly seek refuge in the Most Compassionate from you! ˹So leave me alone˺ if you are God-fearing.”

قَالَ إِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ رَسُولُ رَبِّكِ لِأَهَبَ لَكِ غُلَـٰمًۭا زَكِيًّۭا ١٩

He responded, “I am only a messenger from your Lord, ˹sent˺ to bless you with a pure son.”

قَالَتْ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لِى غُلَـٰمٌۭ وَلَمْ يَمْسَسْنِى بَشَرٌۭ وَلَمْ أَكُ بَغِيًّۭا ٢٠

She wondered, “How can I have a son when no man has ever touched me, nor am I unchaste?”

قَالَ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ هُوَ عَلَىَّ هَيِّنٌۭ ۖ وَلِنَجْعَلَهُۥٓ ءَايَةًۭ لِّلنَّاسِ وَرَحْمَةًۭ مِّنَّا ۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرًۭا مَّقْضِيًّۭا ٢١

He replied, “So will it be! Your Lord says, ‘It is easy for Me. And so will We make him a sign for humanity and a mercy from Us.’ It is a matter ˹already˺ decreed.”

فَحَمَلَتْهُ فَٱنتَبَذَتْ بِهِۦ مَكَانًۭا قَصِيًّۭا ٢٢

So she conceived him and withdrew with him to a remote place.

فَأَجَآءَهَا ٱلْمَخَاضُ إِلَىٰ جِذْعِ ٱلنَّخْلَةِ قَالَتْ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى مِتُّ قَبْلَ هَـٰذَا وَكُنتُ نَسْيًۭا مَّنسِيًّۭا ٢٣

Then the pains of labour drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She cried, “Alas! I wish I had died before this, and was a thing long forgotten!”

فَنَادَىٰهَا مِن تَحْتِهَآ أَلَّا تَحْزَنِى قَدْ جَعَلَ رَبُّكِ تَحْتَكِ سَرِيًّۭا ٢٤

So a voice reassured her from below her, “Do not grieve! Your Lord has provided a stream at your feet.

وَهُزِّىٓ إِلَيْكِ بِجِذْعِ ٱلنَّخْلَةِ تُسَـٰقِطْ عَلَيْكِ رُطَبًۭا جَنِيًّۭا ٢٥

And shake the trunk of this palm tree towards you, it will drop fresh, ripe dates upon you.

فَكُلِى وَٱشْرَبِى وَقَرِّى عَيْنًۭا ۖ فَإِمَّا تَرَيِنَّ مِنَ ٱلْبَشَرِ أَحَدًۭا فَقُولِىٓ إِنِّى نَذَرْتُ لِلرَّحْمَـٰنِ صَوْمًۭا فَلَنْ أُكَلِّمَ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِنسِيًّۭا ٢٦

So eat and drink, and put your heart at ease. But if you see any of the people, say, ‘I have vowed silence1 to the Most Compassionate, so I am not talking to anyone today.’”

فَأَتَتْ بِهِۦ قَوْمَهَا تَحْمِلُهُۥ ۖ قَالُوا۟ يَـٰمَرْيَمُ لَقَدْ جِئْتِ شَيْـًۭٔا فَرِيًّۭا ٢٧

Then she returned to her people, carrying him. They said ˹in shock˺, “O Mary! You have certainly done a horrible thing!

يَـٰٓأُخْتَ هَـٰرُونَ مَا كَانَ أَبُوكِ ٱمْرَأَ سَوْءٍۢ وَمَا كَانَتْ أُمُّكِ بَغِيًّۭا ٢٨

O  sister of Aaron!1 Your father was not an indecent man, nor was your mother unchaste.”

فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَيْهِ ۖ قَالُوا۟ كَيْفَ نُكَلِّمُ مَن كَانَ فِى ٱلْمَهْدِ صَبِيًّۭا ٢٩

So she pointed to the baby. They exclaimed, “How can we talk to someone who is an infant in the cradle?”

قَالَ إِنِّى عَبْدُ ٱللَّهِ ءَاتَىٰنِىَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ وَجَعَلَنِى نَبِيًّۭا ٣٠

Jesus declared, “I am truly a servant of Allah. He has destined me to be given the Scripture and to be a prophet.

وَجَعَلَنِى مُبَارَكًا أَيْنَ مَا كُنتُ وَأَوْصَـٰنِى بِٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَٱلزَّكَوٰةِ مَا دُمْتُ حَيًّۭا ٣١

He has made me a blessing wherever I go, and bid me to establish prayer and give alms-tax as long as I live,

وَبَرًّۢا بِوَٰلِدَتِى وَلَمْ يَجْعَلْنِى جَبَّارًۭا شَقِيًّۭا ٣٢

and to be kind to my mother. He has not made me arrogant or defiant.

وَٱلسَّلَـٰمُ عَلَىَّ يَوْمَ وُلِدتُّ وَيَوْمَ أَمُوتُ وَيَوْمَ أُبْعَثُ حَيًّۭا ٣٣

Peace be upon me the day I was born, the day I die, and the day I will be raised back to life!”

ذَٰلِكَ عِيسَى ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ ۚ قَوْلَ ٱلْحَقِّ ٱلَّذِى فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ ٣٤

That is Jesus, son of Mary. ˹And this is˺ a word of truth, about which they dispute.

مَا كَانَ لِلَّهِ أَن يَتَّخِذَ مِن وَلَدٍۢ ۖ سُبْحَـٰنَهُۥٓ ۚ إِذَا قَضَىٰٓ أَمْرًۭا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ ٣٥

It is not for Allah to take a son! Glory be to Him. When He decrees a matter, He simply tells it, “Be!” And it is!

وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّى وَرَبُّكُمْ فَٱعْبُدُوهُ ۚ هَـٰذَا صِرَٰطٌۭ مُّسْتَقِيمٌۭ ٣٦

˹Jesus also declared,˺ “Surely Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him ˹alone˺. This is the Straight Path.”

Islam Is The Religion
Of All The Prophets

Jesus declared, “l am truly a servant of Allah. 

He has destined me to be given the Scripture

and to be a prophet.

"Jesus was a Muslim, he prayed to ALLAH like Muslims do."

إِنَّ مَثَلَ عِيسَىٰ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ ءَادَمَ ۖ خَلَقَهُۥ مِن تُرَابٍۢ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ ٥٩

Indeed, the example of Jesus in the sight of Allah is like that of Adam. He created him from dust, then said to him, “Be!” And he was!

إِذْ قَالَ ٱلْحَوَارِيُّونَ يَـٰعِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ رَبُّكَ أَن يُنَزِّلَ عَلَيْنَا مَآئِدَةًۭ مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ ۖ قَالَ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ ١١٢

˹Remember˺ when the disciples asked, “O Jesus, son of Mary! Would your Lord be willing to send down to us a table spread with food from heaven?” Jesus answered, “Fear Allah if you are ˹truly˺ believers.”

وَإِذْ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَـٰعِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ ءَأَنتَ قُلْتَ لِلنَّاسِ ٱتَّخِذُونِى وَأُمِّىَ إِلَـٰهَيْنِ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ سُبْحَـٰنَكَ مَا يَكُونُ لِىٓ أَنْ أَقُولَ مَا لَيْسَ لِى بِحَقٍّ ۚ إِن كُنتُ قُلْتُهُۥ فَقَدْ عَلِمْتَهُۥ ۚ تَعْلَمُ مَا فِى نَفْسِى وَلَآ أَعْلَمُ مَا فِى نَفْسِكَ ۚ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ عَلَّـٰمُ ٱلْغُيُوبِ ١١٦

And ˹on Judgment Day˺ Allah will say, “O Jesus, son of Mary! Did you ever ask the people to worship you and your mother as gods besides Allah?” He will answer, “Glory be to You! How could I ever say what I had no right to say? If I had said such a thing, you would have certainly known it. You know what is ˹hidden˺ within me, but I do not know what is within You. Indeed, You ˹alone˺ are the Knower of all unseen.

لَقَدْ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ ۖ وَقَالَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ يَـٰبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّى وَرَبَّكُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشْرِكْ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْجَنَّةَ وَمَأْوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُ ۖ وَمَا لِلظَّـٰلِمِينَ مِنْ أَنصَارٍۢ ٧٢

Those who say, “Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary,” have certainly fallen into disbelief. The Messiah ˹himself˺ said, “O Children of Israel! Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord.” Whoever associates others with Allah ˹in worship˺ will surely be forbidden Paradise by Allah. Their home will be the Fire. And the wrongdoers will have no helpers.

مَّا ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ إِلَّا رَسُولٌۭ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِن قَبْلِهِ ٱلرُّسُلُ وَأُمُّهُۥ صِدِّيقَةٌۭ ۖ كَانَا يَأْكُلَانِ ٱلطَّعَامَ ۗ ٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ نُبَيِّنُ لَهُمُ ٱلْـَٔايَـٰتِ ثُمَّ ٱنظُرْ أَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ ٧٥

The Messiah, son of Mary, was no more than a messenger. ˹Many˺ messengers had ˹come and˺ gone before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They both ate food. See how We make the signs clear to them, yet see how they are deluded ˹from the truth˺!

Every nation has a messenger sent by Allah

Six Articles Of Faith In Islam

Faith in Allah is a deep belief in His Names and Attributes, His Lordship and Divinity, and His Existence. The four things that need to be avoided are: Tahreef (distorting); Ta’teel (denying); Tamtheel (comparing Allah to His creation); and Takyeef (discussing how). Anyone who falls into one of these categories has not gained true belief in the names and characteristics of Allah.

According to Islam, angels exist in the “Unseen” realm, which is beyond our comprehension. Through His Prophet Muhammad and in numerous places throughout the Quran, Allah has informed us about them. The belief in angels is one of the six foundations of faith without which faith cannot exist.

A strong believe that ALLAH revealed these Books and all the words written was said by ALLAH Himself
A few of these were revealed to them directly by Him, without the need for an angelic go-between. Some were passed from an angelic messenger to a messenger who was human. 

We have to believe in the books that Allah has specifically named by name. The Quran, the Tawrat, the Injil (Gospel), the Zabur (Psalms), and the Scriptures of Ibrahim and Musa are the books that Allah has mentioned in the Quran.
One of the books that has been revealed by Allah that we have to believe in is the Scriptures of Abraham, yet we only know what Allah has taught us about them.

Every nation has a messenger sent by Allah, chosen from among them, calling them to worship Him alone and rejecting everything else that is worshipped. Furthermore, that messengers were all truthful, speakers of the truth, righteous, wise, pious, and honest, and that they conveyed everything that Allah had given them, not hiding anything or changing it. They did not remove anything or add even a single letter from themselves.

firmly trusting that all that Allah has revealed to us in His Book and via His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) regarding the afterlife will in fact occur and come to fruition. This includes having faith in the Hour’s signals, which will occur prior to the Last Day; in death and the experiences that come with it while a person is dying; in what happens after death, such as the trial of the grave and its blessing or suffering;

Belief that Allah knows all things, in general terms and in detail, from eternity to eternity. Not a single atom is unknown to Him in the heavens or on earth. Belief that Allah has decreed all things in al-Lawh al-Mahfuz, fifty thousand years before He created the heavens and the earth.

Jesus Believed The Pillars of Islam

One of his Miracles was Speaking right after birth in support of his mother’s piety.
In this way, he was defending his mother against the accusations of immorality made against her.

In the Qur’an Chapter 19 verse 30 “Jesus declared, “I am truly a servant of Allah. He has destined me to be given the Scripture (The Gospel) and to be a prophet.”

And he continued speaking until he said, Chapter 19:31 “He has blessed me everywhere I go and commanded me to build a life of prayer and almsgiving for the rest of my days.”

“Allah told him the details of his affair up until the point of his Death.

ALLAH Testified in His Quran

Chapter 5:72

Those who say, “Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary,” have certainly fallen into disbelief. The Messiah ˹himself˺ said, “O Children of Israel! Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord.” Whoever associates others with Allah ˹in worship˺ will surely be forbidden Paradise by Allah. Their home will be the Fire. And the wrongdoers will have no helpers.

Statement From Prophet Muhammad

About Jesus coming back to the world

The son of Maryam (Jesus) will shortly descend among you and will judge mankind justly.

The Hour will not be established until the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you as a just ruler, he will break the cross, kill the pigs, and abolish the Jizya tax. Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it (as charitable gifts).

Who were the 12 Disciples?

He stood among his people and said, “Who will be my helpers in the cause of Allah?” after observing their stubbornness and the obvious evidence of denial. There were twelve disciples who believed in him.

فَلَمَّآ أَحَسَّ عِيسَىٰ مِنْهُمُ ٱلْكُفْرَ قَالَ مَنْ أَنصَارِىٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ ٱلْحَوَارِيُّونَ نَحْنُ أَنصَارُ ٱللَّهِ ءَامَنَّا بِٱللَّهِ وَٱشْهَدْ بِأَنَّا مُسْلِمُونَ

When Jesus sensed disbelief from his people, he asked, “Who will stand up with me for Allah?” The disciples replied, “We will stand up for Allah. We believe in Allah, so bear witness that we have submitted.”

رَبَّنَآ ءَامَنَّا بِمَآ أَنزَلْتَ وَٱتَّبَعْنَا ٱلرَّسُولَ فَٱكْتُبْنَا مَعَ ٱلشَّـٰهِدِينَ ٥٣

They prayed to Allah, “Our Lord! We believe in Your revelations and follow the messenger, so count us among those who bear witness.”

“Isa ibn Maryam is Allah’s slave and messenger.” As Allah declares to the Jews and Christians, He sent him to lead the Children of Israel and to summon them to worship Allah Alone.

Maryam, ‘Imran’s daughter, was a devout and moral person. She worked so hard at worship till she was unmatched in that regard. She was informed by the angels that she had been selected by Allah.

Some of the Children of Israel denied the Resurrection, the Reckoning, and the Penalty when they strayed from the Straight Path and went beyond the boundaries established by Allah.

As a result, they committed wrongdoing and brought corruption to earth.

They enjoyed themselves to the fullest and didn’t anticipate being held accountable for their actions.

Allah then sent Isa ibn Maryam as a messenger to them, teaching him the Tawrat and Injil.

The Injil (Gospel), which follows the preceding Tawrat, was revealed by Allah to ‘Isa ibn Maryam as light and guidance.

We also sent him the Gospel, or Injil, which contained instructions, light, and confirmation of the Tawrat (Torah) that before it.

It also served as a warning and a guide for the devout person known as Al-Muttaqun. (interpretation the meaning of al-Maidah Quran  chapter 5:46)

The Children of Israel were called by Jesus (peace be upon him) to worship Allah alone and to abide by the Tawrat and Injil’s decrees. He began to argue with them and point out their mistakes. When he observed their obstinacy and the evident signs of their denial, he stood among his people and asked, “Who will be my helpers in the cause of Allah?” There were twelve disciples who followed him and had faith in him.

In the Qur’an Chapter 19 verse 30-31  “Jesus declared, “I am truly a servant of Allah. He has destined me to be given the Scripture and to be a prophet.” 
“He has made me a blessing wherever I go, and bid me to establish prayer and give alms-tax as long as I live,”

And will make him [Isa (Jesus)] a messenger to the Children of Israel, saying: “I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, that I design for you a figure like a bird out of clay, and I breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by Allah’s will; and I heal the blind who was born, the leper, and I bring the dead to life by Allah’s will.” Additionally, I tell you what you eat and what you keep in your homes. If you believe, there is undoubtedly a sign for you there.

When it comes to His creating abilities, Allah is flawless. He makes everything and however He pleases. He made Hawwa from  Adam’s rib from a father but no mother, and He made Adam from dust without a mother or father. In addition to giving Adam’s offspring a mother and a father, He also produced “Isa” from his mother without a father. To the All-Knowing Creator, praise be. 

The Children of Israel were called by Isa (peace be upon him) to worship Allah alone and to abide by the laws of the Tawrat and Injil. He began arguing with them and pointing out their mistakes. He stood among his people and said, “Who will be my helpers in the cause of Allah?” after observing their stubbornness and the obvious evidence of denial. There were twelve disciples who believed in him.

And ˹remember˺ when Jesus, son of Mary, said, “O children of Israel! I am truly Allah’s messenger to you, confirming the Torah which came before me, and giving good news of a messenger after me whose name will be Aḥmad.”  Yet when the Prophet came to them with clear proofs, they said, “This is pure magic.”

Additionally, because they boasted that they had “murdered the Messiah ‘Isa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the messenger of Allah,'” they did not actually kill him or crucify him, but it seemed to them that ‘Isa (Jesus) was placed over another man (and they killed that man)” and those who disagree are filled with doubts. They only follow hypothesis and lack any (firm) information. For certainly, they didn’t murder him.
Rather, Allah raised him up to Himself. And Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.
