Verse range: 11:73

Open in Qurani

قالوا أتعجبين من أمر الله

Then said: "Do you wonder at the decree of Allah!'' This means that the angels were saying to her, "Do not be amazed at the command of Allah, for verily, whenever He wants something, He merely says `Be' and it is. So do not be amazed at this, even though you are old and barren and your husband is a very old man. Verily, Allah is able to do whatever He wills.''

رحمت الله وبركاته عليكم أهل البيت

The mercy of Allah and His blessing be on you, O the family (of Ibrahim).

إنه حميد مجيد

Surely, He (Allah) is All-Praiseworthy, All-Glorious. This means that He is the Most Praiseworthy in all of His actions and statements. He is praised and glorified in His Attributes and His Self. For this reason, it is confirmed in the two Sahihs that they (the Prophet's Companions) said, "Verily, we already know how to greet you with Salam (peace), but how do we send Salah (prayer) upon you, O Messenger of Allah?'' He said,

قولوا

Say,

اللهم صل على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما صليت على إبراهيم وآل إبراهيم

وبارك على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما باركت على آل إبراهيم إنك حميد مجيد

O Allah, send prayers upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, just as You have sent prayers upon Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. And bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, just as You have blessed the family of Ibrahim. Truly, You are the All-Praiseworthy, All-Glorious
