ترجمة الآية 13 من سورة Maryam - English - سورة مريم : عدد الآيات 98 - - الصفحة 306 - الجزء 16.
And (made him) sympathetic to men as a mercy (or a grant) from Us, and pure from sins [i.e. Yahya (John)] and he was righteous,
And affection from Us and purity, and he was fearing of Allah
(19:13) We blessed him with "judgment" *10 while he was yet a child, and bestowed on him tenderness of heart *11 and purity from Ourself; and he was very pious
*10) The Arabic word hukm implies ability (1) to make decisions, (2) to form right opinions, (3) to interpret the Divine Law, (4) to solve problems, and (5) it also means `authority from Allah to decide affairs'.
*11) The Arabic word hanan is almost synonymous with `mother love'. In other words, Prophet John bore in his heart the same kind of intense love for Allah's servants as a mother has for her child.
