Al-Kashshaf

Verse range: 19:11

Open in Qurani

Maryam: (11) "Then he came out to his people..."

"He signaled" (أوحى): According to Mujahid, it means he gestured. This is supported by the verse: "except by signaling" (إلا رمزا). According to Ibn Abbas, he wrote for them on the ground: "Glorify [Allah]" (سبحوا), meaning: pray. Alternatively, it may be taken according to its apparent meaning, with "that" (أن) serving as an explanatory particle.


(12) "O John, take the Scripture with determination, and We gave him wisdom while yet a child."
