In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
The story of Maryam bint Imran
Peace be upon her
Don't be sad, Mary
God's care for Mary
She did not stop at choosing the place of birth
Rather, it surrounded her on all sides
When Mary said:
I wish I had extended before this
And I was forgotten
May God speak from her consolation
He called her from below
Don't be sad
Your Lord has placed a secret under you
Ibn Jarir Natabari, may God have mercy on him, said
We have the first of two opinions regarding this
Who said it?
Who called her son Jesus
This is because it is a metaphor for mentioning it
Closer to him than the mention of Gabriel
Return it to the one who is closest to him
It is better than his response to the one who is farthest from him
Al-Shanqiqi, may God have mercy on him, said
Show my two opinions
The one who called her was her son, Jesus
Two pieces of evidence indicate this
The first
The pronoun refers to the nearest male
Except for clear evidence of that
You must refer to it
The closest thing is mentioned in the verse
He is Jesus, not Gabriel
Because God said
So I got pregnant
I mean Jesus
So I renounced him
That is, through Jesus
Then he said after him
So he called her
What appears and comes from the context
It's Jesus
And the second presumption
When she brought it to her people, she carried it
And they told her what they said
She motioned to Issa to talk to him
As God Almighty said about it
She pointed to him
They said: How can we talk to someone who was a boy in the cradle?
And she pointed to him so that they could talk to him
Evidence that it was known before that
He speaks
As a violation of custom
For calling out to her when she gave birth
Other scholars went
Until the one who called her was Gabriel, peace be upon him
Whichever of the two statements is correct
The lesson of the event is what we want from the story
The one who called her from below forbade her from being sad
And sadness
It is an expression of what happens when something bad happens
Or the loss of a loved one in the past
Mary's grief is of the first type
It is her fear of what will be said about her
When her people met her
She is carrying her newborn
But
Why did he forbid her from being sad?
Can you not be sad?
The psychological situation that Mary, peace be upon her, was going through
It wasn't easy
However, he forbade her from being sad
Which means that a woman can overcome the sorrows that befall her
Because of the pain you go through in life
Because if she did not have the ability to overcome the stage of grief
What he ordered her to do
Although sadness is a natural thing that occurs in the soul
But it can be treated
Muhammad Rashid Reda, may God have mercy on him, said
If it is said
Sadness is a natural pain that a person experiences when he loses what he loves
It is not optional
How did God Almighty forbid it?
We said
It is forbidden to be sad
What is meant by it is to prohibit the necessary things that many people do voluntarily
It is the driver of that pain
And renewed for him and far away the period of consolation
Its opposite is the burden of tasks that occupy the soul
It distracts her from remembering and thinking about what she was sad about
With the hope and satisfaction of God Almighty
These actions are physical and psychological
And it's just psychological
Or just physical
Relying on sadness
It may lead to other matters that exceed the limits of God Almighty
And abstention from good deeds
The mind is preoccupied with bad expectations that dominate the heart
And it increases in sadness
This leads to stopping thinking about a way out of the pain that the grieving woman is experiencing
Therefore, the Sharia did not praise sadness
Rather, it came to prohibit it
Sharia takes into account human nature in its sensitivity to pain and sorrow
A woman was permitted to mourn a dead relative for only three days
Then she returns to her normal life
It does what is legally required of it
Emptying the heart of sadness that paralyzes good deeds
There are many sorrows that afflict women
She can overcome it by looking at the bright sides around her
What God gave her
God Almighty said
He called her from underneath her, “Don’t be sad.”
Your Lord has placed a secret under you
He is the one who called her from below and forbade her from being sad
Draw her attention to God's blessings upon her
He said to her
Your Lord has placed a secret under you
Taher bin Ashour, may God have mercy on him, said
That is, your condition is a state worthy of joy without sadness
Because of its divine dignity
Among this is the divine dignity of Mary
This river that flows between her hands
Al-Shanqiqi, may God have mercy on him, said
Show my two opinions
That secret in the verse is the small river
The evidence for this is two things
One of them is the Qur’an from the Qur’an
So God Almighty said:
Eat and drink
Evidence that this is food and drink
This is what gratitude was mentioned in his saying
Your Lord has placed a secret under you
And he said, “Paps of fresh dates will fall on you.”
And so is what God Almighty says
And We sheltered them in a hill with a place of stability and a certain place
Because the source is running water
It appears that it is the secret table
In this verse
God Almighty knows best
And in this gesture
A nod to every woman who experiences grief
To pay attention to the blessings of God that surround you
In the same calamity that saddened her
Many of us do not pay attention to whiteness
In the blackness that surrounds him
The reference begins with the presence of water
About Mary, peace be upon him
But in her hands
An indication of the importance of water to her
This importance is not limited to drinking from it
People need water
Much greater than their need for food
Especially in the situation of Mary, peace be upon him
She is in postpartum state after giving birth
It needs to clean itself with water constantly
She also needs to clean her newborn with water
She also needs it to drink and quench her thirst
And to cool herself and her newborn from the heat of the sun
And other people's needs for water
This is not the only blessing he referred to
Who called her from below?
But he started with the most important ones
Then he followed it with another blessing
We will continue in an upcoming meeting, God willing
Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds
