Marry’s (peace be upon her) Security

LESSON # 355 FROM HOLY  QUR’AN
Marry’s (peace be upon her) Security
Surah ‘Aali ‘Imran (The Family Of ‘Imran, Chapter - 3)
Verse – 44 of  200, Section –5    (Part – 3)
  
This is of the tidings of things hidden. We reveal it unto thee (Muhammad), “Thou wast not present with them when they threw their pens (to know) which of them should be the guardian of Mary, nor wast thou present with them when they quarreled (thereupon).                
Zaalika  min  ‘ambaaa-‘il  gaybi  nuuhiihi  ‘ilayk.  Wa  maa  kunta  ladayhim  ‘iz  yulquuna  ‘aqlaamahum-  ‘ayyuhum  yakfulu  Maryam.  Wa  maa  kunta  ladayhim  ‘iz  yakh-tasimuun.          



Lesson
       
In this verse, Allah Almighty has described in corroboration of the claim of Prophet-hood in respect of the Messenger of Islam, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). We have taught him, these entire past incidents which Last Prophet (grace, glory, blessing and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) has been causing to hear the people. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) has absolutely not invented them himself. Its proof is that, the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) is apparently altogether illiterate. He (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) never attended company of any person who believed in one of the previous inspired Scriptures of Allah Almighty, so that he might know from them these occurrences. Moreover, suppose! if he would have remained with them, then you may know that those people had also not the correct knowledge. They had fallen in whims worship. They had changed the correct incidents. So it is clear that these entire facts, for instance; to vow the mother of Mary, birth of Mary, acceptance of petition by Allah Almighty, fostering and security of Mary, supplication of Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon him), birth of John, glad tidings regarding Jesus Christ (peace be upon them) etc. How these entire facts might be known by the Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) without the source of the revelation from Allah Almighty”?

After adducing the above-mentioned proof in favor of Messenger-hood of Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him), Allah Almighty has begun again the description of Mary (peace be upon her).

 Mary (peace be upon her) was accepted in vow. Then she was sent for the duty of the Temple of Jerusalem. Now there was a problem regarding her goodly growth. It was settled that lot should be drawn for her look after. The form of lot was proposed that all the attendants of the Temple of Jerusalem should leave their own pens (with which they used to write Torah) in to the flowing water. Whose pen turns towards the direction of coming water, he would be guardian of Mary. Therefore, it was done so. The pen of Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon him) did not flow towards the direction of flowing water but it changed its direction and returned. So responsibility regarding growth of Mary was given to him (peace be upon them). Zachariah (peace be upon him) was really a well learned and one versed in religious matters, and he (peace be upon him) was also maternal uncle of Mary (peace be upon them). Consequently, the Right reached the Rightful with the Will of God Almighty.  

God Almighty recognized again that Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) was not present at that time when the attendants of the Temple of Jerusalem were leaving their pens into the water for taking decision regarding patronage of Mary (peace be upon her). But in spite of it, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) accrued this knowledge through the Revelation. Even after this argument of Allah Almighty, those people who deny the Messenger-hood of Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him), they are astray, they have lost the Straight Path. Severe threat is for them. It is clear evident from this verse that Holy Qur’an is not the collection of stories and tales. It is the Book for Guidance and which incidents and facts are written in It, those are for manifesting of its purpose.
