In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
The story of Maryam bint Imran
Peace be upon her
She said it is from God
One of the issues that occupies a woman's heart
The issue of livelihood
Especially in this time
Although God Almighty explained it clearly in his book, he said:
And there is no living creature on earth except that the provision for it is upon God, and He knows its resting place and its depository. Each is in a clear book.
However, a woman's trust in God may weaken
She is plagued by fears of poverty and destitution
Therefore, there are many verses that reassure a woman’s heart
That sustenance is from God
And God provided it
And God provides for whomever He wills without reckoning
Maryam's story is a lesson for every girl
That her obedience to God does not prevent her livelihood
Rather, it increases her livelihood
God provides for whomever He wills without reckoning
God Almighty said
Whenever Zechariah entered the sanctuary,
He found livelihood there
He said: O Mary, I am yours for this
She said it is from God
God provides for whomever He wills without reckoning
Zechariah was amazed at Mary's presence of food
Although he did not bring it to her
So he asked her about him
She said it is from God
God provides for whomever He wills without reckoning
Many commentators were busy
By knowing the type of food that God honored her with
While the lesson that is taken from this event
And this position
We do not find it in many books of commentators
Except for those whom God has enabled to do so
What many interpreters say is that this food is contrary to nature
Summer food comes to her in winter
And winter food in summer time
This is what some commentators have mentioned
But dignity does not require food to differ from nature
Dignity is that she receives food suitable for her
Without bringing it herself
Or someone brings it to her
Therefore, Zakaria was surprised that she had a livelihood
Whenever he entered her
She sits in her place and does not come out
No one else enters it
Ibn Attiya, may God have mercy on him, said
And the Almighty said
He found a livelihood there
It means food with which you are nourished unless you are familiar with it
It is not known how he was brought there
Muhammad Rashid Reda, may God have mercy on him, said
You see that there is no evidence in the verse
However, livelihood was one of the customs
And the believers attribute the matter to God
This position is common in ancient and modern times
Professor Imam said: What a simple example
The Qur’an was revealed easily and easily for everyone to understand
Without the need to bother or go on defense
About something other than what appears
We must not deviate from his Sunnah
We do not add Israeli stories to it
Or non-Israeli
To make this a paranormal story
Searching for that sustenance, what it is and where it came from
Unnecessary curiosity
To understand the meaning and learn more
If God had known that there was good for us in His statement, He would have made it clear
Mary, peace be upon her, decided in her answer
The Prophet of God, Zechariah, had three things to do
The first is that sustenance comes from God
The second is that God provides for whomever He wills without reckoning
Third, food is called sustenance
This is a lesson for every girl who has not married
And for every married woman
And for every divorced woman
And for all Muslim women
As for the girl who did not marry
Learning that marriage is a gift from God
Requested for legal reasons
Which includes prayer
So the girl asks God for a good wife
She insists on praying
God Almighty is the Provider
The girl must be certain that disobedience does not bring livelihood
And obedience does not prevent him
Whoever thinks that her commitment to the legitimate dress code
As God commanded in His book
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, explained it in his Sunnah
He prevents her from getting married
She mistrusted God
Likewise, the mother who thinks she is covering up her daughter
He will deprive her of marriage
You have misunderstood God
Did sustenance come to Mary?
She is in her mihrab
Except for the dignity of her obedience and worship
Your commitment to what God has commanded
Of concealment, modesty and chastity
It does not deprive you of marriage
And do not delay it for you
As for married women
You may be infected with the pollution of the people of pre-Islamic times
She refrained from having children under the pretext of lack of livelihood
God has forbidden this act
He promised the couple a livelihood, he said
And do not kill your children out of poverty
We provide for you and them
And God Almighty said
And do not kill your children for fear of poverty
We provide for them and you
Killing them was a big mistake
In case of poverty
The spouses’ livelihood is prioritized over the newborn’s livelihood
In case of fear of poverty
The newborn’s livelihood comes before the spouses’ livelihood
As for the woman who disagrees with her husband
She feels that he might divorce her
Because he hates her or something else
God Almighty reassured her of provision
Even if the divorce occurred
And God Almighty said
And if it is dispersed, God will enrich each one of his capacity
God is All-Wise, All-Wise
Ibn Kathir, may God have mercy on him, said
God Almighty told them that if they dispersed
God frees him from it and frees her from it
May God compensate him with someone better than her
He compensates her with someone better for her than him
God is All-Wise, All-Wise
That is, of great bounty and great manna
Wise in all his actions, destinies, and laws
Sustenance is in this verse
More general than money
It may be a marriage through which you will be blessed
With a new married life
And new happiness
And money and offspring
Divorce does not mean poverty
It is not necessary for him to be poor
God Almighty said
When we reach their term
So they caught them with kindness
Or separate them with kindness
And bear witness to those of justice among you
And I bear witness to God
That is what he promises
Whoever believes in God
And the other day
And whoever fears God
Makes a way out for him
And He provides him from where he does not expect
And whoever trusts in God
It is enough for him
And whoever trusts in God
It is enough for him
God has accomplished His command
God has made a destiny for everything
Muhammad Rashid Reda, may God have mercy on him, said
The pious person is always better off
And more likely and possible
For God Almighty's care for him
Poverty does not hurt him the way it hurts the ungodly
Through piety, he finds a way out of every distress
He finds from God's providence an undesirable provision
A girl may reject a good man because of his poverty
God responded to her by saying:
And I will marry you for days
And the righteous are among your male and female servants
If they are poor, God will enrich them from His grace
And God is All-Encompassing and All-Knowing
Ibn Kathir, may God have mercy on him, said
Ali bin Abi Talha said on the authority of Ibn Abbas
God wanted them to marry
It was ordered by both free men and slaves
He promised them wealth
And God Almighty said
If they are poor, God will enrich them from His grace
Ibn Abi Hatim said
My father told us
Mahmoud bin Khaled Al-Azraq told us
Omar bin Abdul Wahid told us on the authority of Saeed
I mean, Ibn Abdul Aziz
He said
I was informed that Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him, said
Obey God in what He commands you to do regarding marriage
He will fulfill for you what he promised you of wealth
God Almighty said
If they are poor, God will enrich them from His grace
On the authority of Ibn Masoud, may God be pleased with him, he said:
Seek wealth in marriage
It was the effect of Mary's answer, peace be upon him
To the Prophet of God Zechariah, peace and blessings be upon him
That Zechariah took the initiative to ask God for offspring
It is a livelihood
And he said
Qena for you Zechariah called on his Lord
He said, “Lord, grant me good offspring from You.”
You are the one who hears supplications
So his Lord Almighty responded to him
So he sent angels to give him good news of the baby
And he said
Then the angels called him
He was standing and praying in the area
That God gives you good news
He lives in faith
Believing in a word from God
And master and confinement
And a prophet of the righteous
Mary's answer to God's prophet Zechariah
With this answer
Evidence of her righteousness and certainty in God Almighty
This is how a Muslim girl should
To be raised with faith and trust in God’s promise
And the haste of the Prophet of God, Zechariah
To pray and ask God for a child
And he is a livelihood
After he heard Maryam's answer
Evidence that the righteous hasten
In doing good if they are reminded of it
And who hopes for every girl today
And every woman, married or unmarried
To be certain that God is the Provider
So she asks for sustenance from him
As God Almighty said
So seek sustenance from God
And worship Him and give thanks to Him
To Him you will be returned
The livelihood does not need to be cash
Rather, it may be food, offspring, or a mate
Or self-confidence
Or happiness and psychological comfort
Or health in the body and well-being from God
Or otherwise
The last thing Mary decided
In her answer to the Prophet of God Zechariah
It is that God provides for whomever He wills without reckoning
Abu Zahra, may God have mercy on him, said
That is, God's provision is abundant and unlimited
And it is not appreciated as much
Therefore, it is not limited by calculation
It does not apply to numbers that end
We ask God of His great grace
Who will grant us Paradise without reckoning?
We will continue in an upcoming meeting, God willing
Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds
