On the Day when every person will be confronted with all the good
he has done, and all the evil he has done, he will wish that there were a great
distance between him and his evil. And Allâh warns you against Himself (His
Punishment) and Allâh is full of Kindness to the (His) slaves. (30) Say (O Muhammad SAW
to mankind): "If you (really) love Allâh then follow me (i.e. accept
Islâmic Monotheism, follow the Qur'ân and the Sunnah), Allâh will love you and
forgive you your sins. And Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (31) Say (O Muhammad SAW):
"Obey Allâh and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW)." But if they turn away,
then Allâh does not like the disbelievers[] (32) Allâh chose Adam, Nûh
(Noah), the family of Ibrâhim (Abraham) and the family of 'Imrân above the
'Alamîn (mankind and jinn) (of their times) (33) Offspring, one of the
other, and Allâh is the All-Hearer, All-Knower. (34) (Remember) when the
wife of 'Imrân said: "O my Lord! I have vowed to You what (the child that)
is in my womb to be dedicated for Your services (free from all worldly work; to
serve Your Place of worship), so accept this, from me. Verily, You are the
All-Hearer, the All-Knowing." (35) Then when she gave birth to her [child Maryam
(Mary)], she said: "O my Lord! I have given birth to a female child,"
- and Allâh knew better what she brought forth, - "And the male is not
like the female, and I have named her Maryam[] (Mary), and I seek refuge with
You (Allâh) for her and for her offspring from Shaitan (Satan), the
outcast." (36) So her Lord (Allâh) accepted her with goodly acceptance. He made
her grow in a good manner and put her under the care of Zakariyâ (Zachariya).
Every time he entered Al-Mihrâb[] to (visit) her , he found her supplied with
sustenance. He said: "O Maryam (Mary)! From where have you got this?"
She said, "This is from Allâh." Verily, Allâh provides sustenance to
whom He wills, without limit." (37)
