58      Prophet Jesus (pbuh): A Prophet, Not A Son, of God


                   and I am not an unchaste woman?" He [Gabriel] said: "It will be so.
                   Your Lord says: 'That is easy foor Me. It is so that We can make him a
                   Sign for humanity and a mercy from Us.' It is a matter alreadyy decreed."
                   So she conceived him and withdrew with him to a distant place. (Surah
                   Maryam: 20-22)

                   As can be seen from the clear language in this verse, Prophet Jesus
              (pbuh) came into the world by means of a creation outside the known
              causes, without a father. Before he was born, God had the angels inform

              Mary of many his attributes and that He was sending him as a blessing to
              his people:
                   He e [Gabriel] said: "I am only your Lord's messenger so that He can give
                   you a pure son" ... We can makke him a Sign for humanity and a mercy
                   from Us." (Surah Maryam: 19-21)

                   This miraculous creation is one of the so-called proofs for belief in
                 the trinity. Although the extraordinary nature of this birth is plain to
                                 see, the birth of Prophet John (pbuh) was also
                                      miraculous. His father, Prophet Zachariah
                                         (pbuh), had prayed for an inheritor with
                                            the following words:
