Commentary

Allah Almighty addresses: O Jesus (peace be upon Him)! Remember the time, when I bestowed unto You the strength to understand the Scripture, informed you about the Secret Matters, gave you Wisdom and knowledge of the Torah and the Gospel; and remember also the incident when You used to shape the clay as it were the likeness of a bird and blow upon it and it was a bird by My Permission, and remember it too when You used to heal him who was born blind and the leper by My permission and used to raise the dead by My permission.

Following four peculiarities of Jesus Christ (peace be upon Him) have been described in this verse, which are called special miracles of Jesus (peace be upon Him):

1.    He (peace be upon Him) used to shape of clay as it were the likeness of a bird, blow upon it and it was a bird living and flying.

2.    Used to heal him who was born blind and that was able to see everything.

3.    Used to treat the leper.

4.    Used to say the dead body, “Get up by the permission of Allah” (Qum  bi-  ‘izNillaah) and that was living.

Mention concerning the Messenger Jesus (peace be upon Him) has passed in Suratul Baqarah (Third Part) and then in fifth and sixth Section of Surah ‘Aale ‘Imraan. Here, all described matters have been collected at one place, for the purpose, by meditating, birth and miracles of Jesus Christ (peace be upon Him) are cleared.
