1. Surah maryam - 19
Lesson 2

2. Starter:
Have you experienced any miracles happened in your family or friends lives? Like something was impossible and then it became unbelievably possible?

3. قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا رَسُولُ رَبِّكِ لِأَهَبَ لَكِ غُلَامًا زَكِيًّا
Verse 19
But this situation did not last very long, and the stranger spoke and stated his great mission:
قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا رَسُولُ رَبِّكِ لِأَهَبَ لَكِ غُلَامًا زَكِيًّا
“He (the angel) said: ‘Verily I am only a messenger of your Lord…”
This statement comforted Mary’s pure heart, as if water was poured over a fire.

4. Verse 19
But this relief did not last long, because immediately after that he added that he had come to bestow on her a son who would be pure from the point of temper, manner, body, and spirit.
“…that I bestow on you a pure son’.”

5. Verse 20
By hearing these words, Mary was seized with a severe trembling and again she became very worried.
In that situation, and only thinking about the natural means of having a child, she wondered and:
قَالَتْ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لِي غُلَامٌ وَلَمْ يَمْسَسْنِي بَشَرٌ وَلَمْ أَكُ بَغِيًّا
“She said: ‘How shall there be for me a son while no man has touched me, neither have I been unchaste.”

6. Reflection
When we are faced with situations where we feel like committing a sin, what is the best thing to do?
How can we remember to do the right thing when we are stuck?
