ما كان لله ان يتخذ من ولد سبحانه اذا قضى امرا فانما يقول له كن فيكون ٣٥
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!

Readings
كُنْ فَيَكُوْنُ
kun fa-yakūnu
كُنْ فَيَكُوْنَ
kun fa-yakūna

Explanation

The two readings convey the same meaning, but in Ibn ʿĀmir’s reading the verb yakūn is subjunctive as a consequence for the imperative ‘Be’ [see al-Samin al-Halabi].

He has revealed to you ˹O Prophet˺ the Book in truth, confirming what came before it, as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel
