Mary Was Made Pure By Allah

 

Grade of Mary (Peace be upon her) (L-387)

وَإِذ قالَتِ المَلائِكَةُ يا مَريَمُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصطَفاكِ وَطَهَّرَكِ وَاصطَفاكِ عَلىٰ نِساءِ العالَمينَ42.   يا مَريَمُ اقنُتي لِرَبِّكِ وَاسجُدي وَاركَعي مَعَ الرّاكِعينَ43.

42.  Wa  ‘iz  qaalatil-malaaa-‘ikatu  yaa-Maryamu  ‘innAllaahas-tafaaki  wa  tah-haraki  wastafaaki  ‘alaa  nisaaa-‘il-‘aalamiin.       43.  Yaa-Maryamuqnutii  li-Rabbiki  wasjudii  warka-‘ii  ma-‘ar-raaki-‘iin.

42. The angels said, “O Mary, God has chosen you, and has purified you. He has chosen you over all the women of the world. 43. “O Mary, be devoted to your Lord, and bow down, and kneel with those who kneel.”

 ‘As-tafaaki – (you are chosen), besides choosing; it also means liking and selecting. The word Mustafaa has also come out from the same, which means chosen and selected.

Holy Qur’an does not verify only past Scriptures and Prophets (Peace be upon them), but it confuted strongly also the misunderstandings which were born about them (Heavenly Books and Prophets) and the disbelievers had accused and charged falsely against them.

The Children of Israel used to slander about the birth of Jesus, his mother (Peace be upon them), other persons of their family and likewise in connection with their teachings. Holy Qur’an refuted all of them. Therefore, it commands: God said to Mary by means of His Angels (Peace be upon them) that He had chosen her to bestow His blessings and favors. He had accepted her (Peace be upon her) in His dedication and made her chaste, and had preferred her above all the women of creation. For example that, “You will bring forth a Prophet (Peace be upon them) likewise Jesus without being touched by any male person. This peculiarity has not been given to any other woman of the entire world.

Then God commanded to Mary (Peace be upon her), “While you have been given such higher grade and honor, you must be obedient to your Lord, prostrate yourself and bow with those who bow in worship”.

These verses manifest that God specifies the person for His favor and bounty to whom He wills. He sends His blessings upon him/her and bestows preference over others. The mankind should worship their Lord, bow themselves before Him and bow along with those who bow.

It is the best way of being grateful to God. He likes very much the contribution and submission of His servants. The person who thanks One God on His blessings, He sends more blessings upon him/her. https://youtu.be/PBX9CpB5VSo
