قَالَ اِنِّیْ عَبْدُ اللّٰهِ ﳴ اٰتٰىنِیَ الْكِتٰبَ وَ جَعَلَنِیْ نَبِیًّاۙ(۳۰)وَّ جَعَلَنِیْ مُبٰرَكًا اَیْنَ مَا كُنْتُ۪-وَ اَوْصٰنِیْ بِالصَّلٰوةِ وَ الزَّكٰوةِ مَا دُمْتُ حَیًّاﳚ(۳۱)وَّ بَرًّۢا بِوَالِدَتِیْ٘-وَ لَمْ یَجْعَلْنِیْ جَبَّارًا شَقِیًّا(۳۲)وَ السَّلٰمُ عَلَیَّ یَوْمَ وُلِدْتُّ وَ یَوْمَ اَمُوْتُ وَ یَوْمَ اُبْعَثُ حَیًّا(۳۳)

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: The child proclaimed, ‘I am Allah’s bondman; He has given me the Book and made me the communicator of the unseen (a Nabi). And He has made me blessed wherever I be; and ordained upon me prayer and poor due, as long as I live. And has made me dutiful to my mother and not made me vigorous, ill-fated. And peace is upon me the day I was born, and on the day I shall taste death, and on the day I will be raised alive’.

[Kanz-ul-Iman (Translation of Quran)] (Part 16, Surah Maryam, Ayah 30-33)

Dear Islamic Sisters! This is the miracle of Sayyiduna ‘Isa عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام that just after his birth, he عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام eloquently delivered such a comprehensive speech. In this speech, first of all, he declared himself a bondman of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ so that no one may call him god or the son of god because people were going to slander him in future, and this slander was, in fact, an accusation against Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Therefore, it was the natural aspect of his Prophethood to firstly refute the false accusation that was going to be made towards Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ before refuting the blame on his mother. اَللّٰهُ اَكۡبَرُ! This is true that whosoever He عَزَّوَجَلَّ blesses with Nubuwwah, certainly his birth is extremely blessed and the elevated signs of his Nubuwwah start to appear from his very childhood. (‘Ajaaib-ul-Quran, pp. 170)

Dear Islamic Sisters! From the speech of Sayyiduna ‘Isa Ruhullah عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام we have also attained this Madani pearl that offering Salah, paying Zakah and treating the mother well have been very old acts of worship and the favourite practice of blessed Ambiya عَـلَـيْهِمُ السَّلَام.

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, these are the beautiful acts of worship which even blessed Shari’ah has also commanded us to perform, but unfortunately, now Masajid are becoming empty and the places of evil are becoming crowded, people are
