1. Kāf, Hā Yā, ‘Ain, Sād 2. This is a narration of your Lord’s mercy to His servant Zakariyyā, 3. When he called his Lord in a low voice. 4. He said, “My Lord, I am in a state that bones in my body have turned feeble, and the head has flared up grey with old age, and I never remained, My Lord, unanswered in my prayer to You. 5. I fear (my) kinsmen after me, and my wife is barren, so bless me with an heir, from Your own side, 6. who inherits me and inherits the house of Ya‘qūb. And make him, My Lord, a favourite one.” 7. (Allah said) “O Zakariyyā, We give you the good news of a boy whose name is YaHyā. We did not create any one before him of the same name.” 8. He Said, “My Lord, how shall there be a boy for me while my wife is barren, and I have reached the extreme of old age?” 9. He said, “So it is; your Lord said ‘it is easy for Me, and I did create you before, when you were nothing.’” 10. He said, “My Lord, make for me a sign.” He said, “Your sign is that you will not (be able to) speak to the people for three (consecutive) nights, even though you will be sound in health.” 11. Then he came out to his people from the place of prayer, and directed them by gestures to proclaim the purity of Allah at morning and evening. 12. (When the child was born, Allah said to him,) “O YaHyā, hold on to the Book firmly.” And We gave him wisdom, while he was still a child, 13. and (blessed him with) love from our own, and purity; and he was God-fearing, 14. and he was good to his parents; and he was not oppressive (or) disobedient. 15. Peace on him the day he was born, the day he dies and the day he will be raised alive.
