Chapter 19, Page 305, Juz 16

1. Kãf-Ha-Ya-’Aĩn- Ṣãd. 2. ˹This is˺ a reminder of your Lord’s mercy to His servant Zachariah, 3. when he cried out to his Lord privately, 4. saying, “My Lord! Surely my bones have become brittle, and grey hair has spread across my head, but I have never been disappointed in my prayer to You, my Lord! 5. And I am concerned about ˹the faith of˺ my relatives after me, since my wife is barren. So grant me, by Your grace, an heir, 6. who will inherit ˹prophethood˺ from me and the family of Jacob, and make him, O Lord, pleasing ˹to You˺!” 7. ˹The angels announced,˺ “O Zachariah! Indeed, We give you the good news of ˹the birth of˺ a son, whose name will be John—a name We have not given to anyone before.” 8. He wondered, “My Lord! How can I have a son when my wife is barren, and I have become extremely old?” 9. An angel replied, “So will it be! Your Lord says, ‘It is easy for Me, just as I created you before, when you were nothing!’” 10. Zachariah said, “My Lord! Grant me a sign.” He responded, “Your sign is that you will not ˹be able to˺ speak to people for three nights, despite being healthy.” 11. So he came out to his people from the sanctuary, signalling to them to glorify ˹Allah˺ morning and evening. 12. ˹It was later said,˺ “O John! Hold firmly to the Scriptures.” And We granted him wisdom while ˹he was still˺ a child, 13. as well as purity and compassion from Us. And he was God-fearing, 14. and kind to his parents. He was neither arrogant nor disobedient. 15. Peace be upon him the day he was born, and the day of his death, and the day he will be raised back to life!
