Surah Maryam , 19...Jesus, servant and prophet of God

Recitation Surah Maryam,

Qari Yousof



Qari Luhaidan,












THE SURAH ALSO RELATES the extraordinary story of Jesus and his mother, Mary, and what it quotes of Jesus' statement to the Jews is sufficient proof for the innocence and integrity of his mother.

He spake: "Lo! I am the slave of Allah. He hath given me the Scripture and hath appointed me a Prophet, (30) And hath made me blessed wheresoever I may be, and hath enjoined upon me prayer and almsgiving so long as I remain alive, "(31)

The unusual manner of Jesus' conception and birth eventually gave rise to a new religion which was built on the mistaken premise that since  Jesus has no human father than his father must have been God and therefore like his father, he must be divine. This logic led to the introduction of a 'third' god' : the "holy spirit"  who blew into Mary's womb so that she could conceive. Thus emerged the so-called doctrine of the "holy trinity", as a fundamental Christian dogma.

Such a doctrine was unprecedented in earlier religious belief, and had never been proposed or introduced  by any Messenger or  Prophet of God. It has been documented in what is known as the 'New Testament.' . This begs the question: Do the words ' Father', 'son' and 'holy spirit' denote one and the same entity, or essence, or are they titles of three separate  and distinct entities? They are, rather ambiguously, said to identify three separate entities, which are in fact one! Some say it is one 'essence',identified by two titles. But if the essence is one, how can a 'title' assume another entity, become flesh, be crucified and raised to heaven, while the 'father' i.e the 'essence', looks on? Are the 'titles', in fact, three different aspects of one whole 'essence'?  No satisfactory answer can be found and none of the foregoing hypotheses and formulae are logical.

The simple truth is that God is one,  and Jesus was just but a mere mortal servant of His, one of millions who obey Him. This is affirmed many times in the Qur'an, as in this surah:

And lo! Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So serve Him. That is the right path. (36) The sects among them differ: but woe unto the disbelievers from the meeting of an awful Day. (37) How well they hear and see and hear them on the Day they come unto Us! yet the evil-doers are to-day in error manifest. (38)

Schism and division are destined to continue to plague mankind until the day of Judgement, when the truth shall be made manifest for all to see. There is but one God; He begets not; All else is created by Him and submits to Him; God alone shall judge everyone on the Day of Judgement. many of those involved in these schisms have eyes but cannot see; they have ears but cannot hear. They will follow  blindly, until that Day when all shall be revealed and they will be able to see and hear.
