'Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Sad, (These letters are one of the miracles of the Quran, and none but Allah Alone knows their meanings). This is a mention of the Mercy of your Lord to His slave Zakariyah. When he called out his Lord (Allah) - a call in secret, saying: "My Lord! Indeed my bones have grown feeble, and gray hair has spread on my head, and I have never been unblest in my invocation to You, O my Lord! And Verily! I fear my relatives after me, since my wife is barren. So give me from Yourself an heir, - who shall inherit me, and inherit also the posterity of Jacob (inheritance of the religious knowledge and Prophethood, not the wealth, etc.) And make him, my Lord, one with whom You are Well-pleased!" Allah said: "O Zakariyah! Verily, We give you the glad tidings of a son. His name will be Yahya (John). We have given that name to none before him." He said: "My Lord! How can I have a son, when my wife is barren, and I have reached the extreme old age." He said: "So (it will be). Your Lord says, It is easy for Me. Certainly I have created you before, when you had been nothing." Zakariyah said: "My Lord! Appoint for me a sign." He said: "Your sign is that you shall not speak unto mankind for three nights, though having no bodily defect." Then he came out to his people from Al Mihrab (a praying place or a private room, etc.), he told them by signs to glorify Allah's Praises in the morning and in the afternoon.
An aka ce wa ɗansa: "Ya Yahaya! Ka riƙe Littafin (Attaura) da ƙarfi." Mun ba shi hikima tun yana yaro, kuma muka sa shi mai tausayi ga mutane, a matsayin rahama ko kyauta daga gare Mu, kuma tsarkaka daga zunubai (Yahaya). Ya kasance mai adalci, mai biyayya ga iyayensa, kuma ba shi da girman kai ko ƙin biyayya (ga Allah ko ga iyayensa). Kuma Aminci ya tabbata a kansa a ranar da aka haife shi, da ranar da zai mutu, da ranar da za a tashe shi zuwa rai! (Surah 19:1-15 Alƙur'ani)
It was said to his son: "O John! Hold fast to the Scripture (The Torah)." And We gave him wisdom while yet a child, and made him sympathetic to men as a mercy or a grant from Us, and pure from sins (John) and he was righteous, and dutiful towards his parents, and he was neither an arrogant nor disobedient (to Allah or to his parents). And Salamun (peace) on him the day he was born, the day he dies, and the day he will be raised up to life again! (Ch 19:1-15 Quran)
Allah Mai Girma da Ɗaukaka kuma ya ce:
Almighty Allah also said:
A lokacin nan Zakariyya ya roƙi Ubangijinsa, yana cewa: "Ya Ubangijina! Ka ba ni daga wurinKa zuriya ta gari. Lalle Kai ne Mai ji da addu'a." Sai mala'iku suka kira shi, yayin da yake tsaye yana sallah a cikin Al-Mihrabi (wurin yin sallah ko daki na kebe), suna cewa: "Allah yana yi maka bushara da Yahaya, mai gaskata Kalma daga Allah (Ka zama! - sai ya zama!, watau halittar Isa ɗan Maryam), shugaba, mai kamewa daga kusantar mata, annabi, daga cikin salihai." Ya ce: "Ya Ubangijina! Ta yaya zan samu ɗa alhali kuwa na tsufa ƙwarai, matata kuma bakarariya ce?" Allah ya ce: "Haka Allah yake yin abin da yake so." Ya ce: "Ya Ubangijina! Ka sanya mini alama." Allah ya ce: "Alamarka ita ce ba za ka yi magana da mutane ba kwana uku sai da alamu. Ka riƙa ambaton Ubangijinka da yawa (ta hanyar tsarkake Shi da yabonSa akai-akai), kuma ka tsarkake Shi da maraice da safiya." (Suratu Ali 'Imran, 3:38-41).
"At that time Zakariyah invoked his Lord, saying: "O my Lord! Grant me from You, a good offspring. You are indeed the All-Hearer of invocation." Then the angels called him, while he was standing in prayer in Al- Mihrab ( a praying place or a private room), saying: "Allah gives you glad tidings of John confirming (believing in) the Word from Allah ("Be!" - and he was! (i.e. the creation of Isa (Jesus), son of Mariam (Mary), noble keeping away from sexual relations with women, a Prophet, from among the righteous." He said: "O my Lord! How can I have a son when I am very old, and my wife is barren?" Allah said: "Thus Allah does what He wills." He said: "O my Lord! Make a sign for me." Allah said: "Your sign is that you shall not speak to mankind for three days except with signals. And remember your Lord much (by praising Him again and again), and glorify Him in the afternoon and in the morning." (Ch 3:38-41 Quran).
