˹Jesus also declared,˺ “Surely Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him ˹alone˺. This is the Straight Path.” Yet their ˹various˺ groups have differed among themselves ˹about him˺, so woe to the disbelievers when they face a tremendous Day! How clearly will they hear and see on the Day they will come to Us! But today the wrongdoers are clearly astray. And warn them ˹O Prophet˺ of the Day of Regret, when all matters will be settled, while they are ˹engrossed˺ in heedlessness and disbelief. Quran 19:36~39 Surah MAryam (MARY)
The Surah is named after Maryam, the mother of Isa [Jesus].
Allah’s Messenger said, “Many amongst men attained perfection but amongst women none attained the perfection except Mary, the daughter of Imran and Asiya, the wife of Pharaoh.
And the superiority of Aisha to other women is like the superiority of Tharid (i.e. an Arabic dish) to other meals.” [Bukhari 3769]
There are 98 Ayat in this Surah.
وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّی وَرَبُّكُمۡ فَٱعۡبُدُوهُۚ هَـٰذَا صِرَ ٰطࣱ مُّسۡتَقِیمࣱ فَٱخۡتَلَفَ ٱلۡأَحۡزَابُ مِنۢ بَیۡنِهِمۡۖ فَوَیۡلࣱ لِّلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن مَّشۡهَدِ یَوۡمٍ عَظِیمٍ أَسۡمِعۡ بِهِمۡ وَأَبۡصِرۡ یَوۡمَ یَأۡتُونَنَاۖ لَـٰكِنِ ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ ٱلۡیَوۡمَ فِی ضَلَـٰلࣲ مُّبِینࣲ وَأَنذِرۡهُمۡ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡحَسۡرَةِ إِذۡ قُضِیَ ٱلۡأَمۡرُ وَهُمۡ فِی غَفۡلَةࣲ وَهُمۡ لَا یُؤۡمِنُونَ
The subject matter of this Surah is the true message and teachings of the Prophets of Allah.
Several Prophets are mentioned here: Zakariyya, Yahya, Isa and his mother Maryam, Ibrahim, Musa, Ismail and Idris -may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon all of them.
Allah blessed these Prophets.
They taught Tawhid and called their people to the worship of Allah alone.
Great miracles and signs were also shown in the lives of these Prophets and Messengers.
(اور عیسٰیؑ نے کہا تھا کہ) "اللہ میرا رب بھی ہے اور تمہارا رب بھی، پس تم اُسی کی بندگی کرو، یہی سیدھی راہ ہے" مگر پھر مختلف گروہ باہم اختلاف کرنے لگے سو جن لوگوں نے کفر کیا ان کے لیے وہ وقت بڑی تباہی کا ہوگا جب کہ وہ ایک بڑا دن دیکھیں گے جب وہ ہمارے سامنے حاضر ہوں گے اُس روز تو اُن کے کان بھی خوب سُن رہے ہوں گے اور اُن کی آنکھیں بھی خوب دیکھتی ہوں گی، مگر آج یہ ظالم کھلی گمراہی میں مبتلا ہیں اے نبیؐ، اِس حالت میں جبکہ یہ لوگ غافل ہیں اور ایمان نہیں لا رہے ہیں، اِنہیں اس دن سے ڈرا دو جبکہ فیصلہ کر دیا جائے گا اور پچھتاوے کے سوا کوئی چارہ کار نہ ہوگا
