* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ قَالَتْ رَبِّ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لِي وَلَدٌ وَلَمْ يَمْسَسْنِي بَشَرٌ قَالَ كَذَلِكَ ٱللَّهُ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ إِذَا قَضَىٰ أَمْراً فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ }

She said ‘Lord how shall I have a child when no mortal has touched me?’ neither through conjugality or otherwise; He said the command ‘It is such that God will create from you a child without a father. God creates what He will. When He decrees a thing willing its creation He says to it only “Be” and it is that is and ‘he is’.
