Quranic Quotations

1- His Miraculous Birth

"And when she (Mary's mother) gave birth,
she said, "My Lord, I have given birth
to a female,"
but God knows what she had given birth to,
a male is not like a female,
"and I have named her Mary,
and I ask You to protect her
and her offspring, from the accursed Satan".
And her Lord accepted her (Mary),
with gracious favour,
and He caused her to grow up in purity,
Zachariah taking care of her.
When Zachariah used to enter her sanctuary
to see her, he found she had supplies.
He said, "O Mary, how has this come about to you?"
She said, "This is from God,
God provides whoever He wishes,
without measure."3:36-37

"And the angels said, "O Mary, God has chosen you
and purified you and chosen you above
the women of all nations.
O Mary, devote yourself to your Lord,
prostrate and bow alongside those who bow"."3:42-43

"And the angels said, "O Mary, God gives you
the glad tidings of a Word from Him.
His name is the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary,
highly honoured in this world and in the Hereafter,
He shall talk to people when he is in the cradle,
and when he is of old age,
and he will be one of the righteous.
And God will teach him the Book,
Wisdom, the Torah and the Injeel (God's Revelation to Jesus).
And he will be a Messenger to the
Children of Israel, telling them
"I have come to you with a sign from your Lord.
I will create for you
from clay, a figure of a bird,
and when I breathe into it, it will turn into a bird,
with God's permission. I will also cure the blind
and the leper and bring life to the dead
with God's permission.
I will also inform you of what food you eat
and what food you store in your homes.
Surely, in all that there is a sign for you,
if you do believe.
And I came to you to confirm the Truth
of the Torah that was before me,
and to make lawful certain things which
were forbidden unto you.
And I came to you with a sign from your Lord,
so fear God and obey me.
Surely God is my Lord and your Lord,
so worship Him,
as this is the straight way."3:45-51

"And mention in the Book,
Mary when she withdrew from her people,
to an eastern place,
and she placed a veil apart from them,
We sent her Our angel,
who appeared to her as a person,
totally human.
She said to him, " I take refuge in
the All-Merciful from you,
Come not near if you fear God"
He said, "I am only a Messenger from your Lord,
to announce to you the gift of having a perfect son"
She said, "How shall I have a son
while no human has touched me and I am not unchaste?"
He said, "It will be, your Lord has said
"That is easy for Me and We will make
him a sign (of our creation) to all people,
and a mercy from Us, all is a matter
which has been decreed."
After she conceived him,
she withdrew with him to a distant place.
And the pains of childbirth drove her to
the trunk of a date-palm,
and she said, "I wished I was dead and
became a forgotten thing before this day."
But (a voice) cried to her from beneath,
Don't feel sad,
for your Lord has placed a brook at your feet.
And shake the trunk of the date-palm towards you,
fresh ripe dates will drop on you.
So eat, drink and comfort yourself and be glad.
And when you see any human being,
then say, "I have vowed to the All-Merciful
a fast not to talk today to any human being".
And when she carried him (Jesus) to her people,
they said, "O Mary, you have
surely committed a monstrous thing.
O kinswoman of Aaron, your father was no evil man,
Nor was your mother a woman unchaste !"
So Mary pointed to her child.
They said, "how can we talk to someone
who is a baby in the cradle ?!"
But the baby said, "I am indeed
God's servant and He has given me the Book
and made me a Prophet. And He has made me blessed
wherever I may be, and enjoined Salah (prayer) upon me
and to give Zakah (charity) as long as I live.
And He has made me kind to my mother,
and has not made me arrogant nor rebellious.
And may God's peace be upon me the day I was born,
the day I die and the day I will be raised up alive."
That was Jesus, son of Mary,
it was a statement of Truth,
about which people will continue to dispute.
It is not befitting for God to take a son.
Glory be to Him,
When He decrees a thing, He but says to it 'Be'
and it is.
Verily God is my Lord and your Lord,
so worship Him and Him alone,
as this is the straight path."19:16-36

2- His Message

"We (God) gave Moses the Book,
and after him We sent a succession of Messengers.
And We gave Jesus, son of Mary,
clear signs and supported him
with the Holy Spirit.
Yet every time a Messenger comes to you
with what you do not fancy,
you become arrogant;
some of them you reject
and some of them you kill."2:87

"These are God's verses
which We (God) recited to you (O Muhammed),
as the Truth,
and indeed you are one of the Messengers.
Those Messengers, We endowed them with bounty,
and raised some in rank.
Some spoke to God,
and some were raised to higher degrees (of honour),
and We gave Jesus, son of Mary, clear signs,
and supported him with the Holy Spirit.
Had God willed, succeeding followers of these Messengers,
would not have fought one another,
after the clear signs that had come to them.
But they chose to differ;
Some believed and some disbelieved.
Had God willed, they would not have
fought one another,
but God does what He wants."2:252-253

3- His Miracles

"God said, "O Jesus, son of Mary,
recount My blessings upon you,
and upon your mother;
when I assisted you with the Holy Spirit.
You spoke to people from the cradle,
and when you were of old age.
And I taught you the Book, Wisdom,
the Torah, and the Injeel.
And you created out of clay, a figure of a bird,
by My permission.
and you breathed into it, and it was turned into a bird,
by My permission.
And you cured the blind and the leper,
by My permission.
And you brought forth the dead,
by My permission.
And I fended off the Children of Israel from you,
when you brought them clear signs,
while the unbelievers among them said
"this is but sheer magic!"
And when I inspired the disciples,
"Believe in Me and in My Messenger,"
they said, "We believe . And You
bear witness that we are
among those who submit to God (Muslims).
And when the disciples asked,
"O Jesus, son of Mary,
Can your Lord send down to us,
a table from heaven?"
He said, "Fear God, if you are believers,"
They said "We wish to eat from it,
and to affirm our hearts in knowing
that you told us the Truth,
and that we ourselves would be its witnesses.
And Jesus, son of Mary said,
"O God, our Lord,
send us down from heaven a table,
that would provide a festival
for our first and last person,
and would provide a miraculous sign from You.
Provide for us, You are the best Provider."
God said, "Verily, I will send it down,
unto you all.
But, if any of you would disbelieve,
after that,
I will punish him with such a punishment,
that I have not punished any other being."5:110-115

4- His Death

"And they said, "We have killed the Messiah,
Jesus, son of Mary, God's Messenger,"
But they neither killed him nor crucified him,
even though it appeared so to them.
And those who differ concerning him,
surely are full of doubt;
they have no firm knowledge of him,
except by following conjecture,
as they are not certain that they have killed him.
Nay, God has raised him up to Him,
God is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."4:157-158

5- His Nature

"Christ, son of Mary,
was no more than a Messenger,
like Messengers that passed away before him.
His mother was a saint,
but both had to eat food.
Observe how We make clear to them Our signs,
and observe how they turn away from the Truth.
Say "Would you worship,
an inferior being other than God,
with no power to harm or benefit you ?"
But God is All-Hearing, All-Knowing".5:75-76

"Indeed, Jesus, in God's view is like Adam,
He created him of dust,
then He said unto him 'Be',
and he was.
The Truth comes from
your Lord alone,
do not be among the doubters."3:59-60

6- The Church Dogma

"Certainly they disbelieve (in the Truth) who say:
"God is the Messiah, son of Mary",
For the Messiah said,
"O Children of Israel,
worship God, my Lord and your Lord".
Verily whoever takes an associate with God,
God shall prohibit him from entering Paradise,
and Hellfire will be his home;
wrong-doers shall have no helpers.5:72

"Certainly they disbelieve (in the Truth) who say:
"God is the Third of Three,"
for no God is there but One God.
If they do not refrain from what they say,
painful torment will afflict those
among them who disbelieve.
Will they not turn to God and pray
for His forgiveness ?
God is All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate."5:73-74

"Certainly they disbelieve (in the Truth) who say:
"God is the Messiah, son of Mary,
Say "who then shall over-rule God in any way,
if He ever wants to destroy the Messiah, son of Mary,
and his mother and all those who are on earth ?
To God belongs the Kingdom of Heavens and Earth,
and all that is in between,
He creates what He wills,
God is capable of everything."5:17

"They (who follow the Church Dogma) took the Messiah,
son of Mary, as lord, apart from God,
although they have been commanded
to worship non other than the One God.
There is no God but He,
all glory be to Him,
above whatever they take as an associate."9:31

"Say: "O people of the Book, do not go to extremes
in your religion beyond the Truth.
And do not follow the whims of those people
who went astray before, and led many astray,
and now again have gone astray
from the truthful way."5:77

7- The Truth

"And when God said, "O Jesus, son of Mary,
have you told people, "take me and my mother
as two gods, apart from God?"
Jesus said, "Glory be to You,
never could I say what I have no right to say,
Had I said it, you would indeed have known,
You know what is within me,
and I do not know what is within You,
as You are the Knower of the Unseen.
I only said to them what You have commanded me:
"Worship God, my Lord and your Lord".
And I was a witness over them,
while I was among them;
but when You did take me up,
You were Yourself the Watcher over them,
You are a Witness over everything.
If You punish them, they are Your servants,
and if You forgive them,
You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
And God said, "this is the day on which
the truthful will benefit from their truthfulness,
with gardens that have rivers flowing beneath,
dwelling in them forever,
as God was well pleased with them,
and they were well pleased with Him;
indeed this is a supreme achievement.
To God alone belongs the Kingdom of the
Heavens and Earth and all that is in them,
He is capable of everything."5:116-120

"O Mankind,
Verily, the Messenger (Muhammed) has brought you
The Truth from your Lord,
Therefore, believe (in God, in His Messenger and in
the Truth) for your own good,
but if you disbelieve,
(You will not harm God's Kingdom),
As to God belongs all that is in
the Heavens and Earth,
God is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
O People of the Book (Christians),
Do not make up exaggerations in your faith and
say nothing about God except the Truth.
Christ; Jesus the son of Mary,
is only God's Messenger,
(who has been created by God through) His Word
(Be) given to Mary and
a spirit (which was given) by Him.
Therefore, believe in God and all His Messengers.
Do not speak of (and believe in) the trinity and
refrain (from speaking of and believing in the
trinity), for your own good. God is the only one God,
All Glory be to Him, (far Exalted is He) above
having a son,
as to Him belongs all that is in the Heavens,
and all that is in and on Earth.
Sufficient is God as the only guardian,
(looking after the affairs of the whole Universe;
He does not need a son).
Never did Christ feel too proud to be
God's worshipper and servant,
nor do the angels who are near (God).
Whoever feels too proud and arrogant to worship
and serve Him (should know that),
He will summon them all
(on the Day of Judgement);
As for those who believed and
did good deeds, God will grant them
their just and full rewards and
will give them yet more out of His bounty,
Whereas those who felt too proud
to worship God,
He will punish them with
a painful torment and
they will find none other than God to protect
and help them."4:170-173

"Say: He is God, the One God,
the Eternal, the Absolute,
He has not begotten,
and has not been begotten,
and none is equal to Him."112:1-4

"And We never sent a Messenger before you
without revealing to him:
'There is no deity but I,
therefore serve and worship Me.'
But they say: 'The All-Merciful has taken a son,'
Glory be to Him,
they are but honoured servants,
they speak not before He speaks,
and they act as He commands."21:25-27

"Whoever invokes any other diety
with God, without having proof,
his accountability is with his Lord,
Surely the disbelievers shall not prosper."23:117

"To Him (God) belongs the Kingdom
of the Heavens and the Earth,
no son has He begotten,
nor has He a partner in His Kingdom,
it is He who created everything,
and ordained them perfectly.
Yet they have taken, apart from Him, gods
that create nothing and themselves are created,
and have no power to hurt or profit themselves,
nor have they power over death,
nor life, nor resurrection."25:2-3

"Dispute not (O Muslims) with the People of the Book,
Save in the fairer manner,
except those of them that do wrong.
And say "we believe in the revelation
which has been sent down to us,
and that which has been sent down to you,
our God and your God are ONE,
to Him we have surrendered in Islam"."29:46
