Prophet Zakariya's miracle from "summary" of Stories of the Prophets by Ismāʻīl ibn ʻUmar Ibn Kathīr
The miracle of Prophet Zakariya, peace be upon him, is a powerful example of Allah's ability to make the impossible possible. When Zakariya saw that his wife was beyond childbearing age and unable to conceive, he turned to his Lord in supplication. Despite his old age and his wife's barrenness, he did not lose hope in Allah's mercy. He prayed for a successor to inherit his prophetic mission and continue the call to righteousness. Zakariya's sincere prayers were answered when Allah sent the Angel Gabriel to give him the glad tidings of a son. Zakariya was astonished by this miraculous news, as he knew the laws of nature dictated that such a thing was impossible. However, he did not doubt the power of Allah to bring about the extraordinary. True to Allah's promise, Zakariya's wife conceived and gave birth to a son named Yahya. This miraculous birth was a testament to Allah's ability to create life where there was none and fulfill the desires of His devoted servants. Zakariya's faith in Allah's power and mercy was unwavering, and he was rewarded with a son who would grow up to be a righteous and wise prophet. The miracle of Prophet Zakariya serves as a reminder that nothing is beyond the reach of Allah's power. It demonstrates the importance of turning to Allah in times of need, trusting in His divine plan, and never underestimating His ability to bring about miracles. Zakariya's story is a beacon of hope for believers, showing that Allah can make the impossible possible for those who put their trust in Him.
