قَالَتْ رَبِّ أَنَّى يَكُونُ لِي وَلَدٌ وَلَمْ يَمْسَسْنِي بَشَرٌ"O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me." Mary said, "How can I have a son while I did not marry, nor intend to marry, nor am I an indecent woman, may Allah forbid"The angel conveyed to Maryam, Allah's answer,قَالَ كَذَلِكِ اللّهُ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاءHe said:"So (it will be) for Allah creates what He wills. He is Mighty in power and nothing escapes His ability.Allah used the word `create' here instead of the word `does' as in the tale about Zakariyya (3:40), to eradicate any evil thought concerning `Isa.Allah next emphasized this fact when He said,إِذَا قَضَى أَمْرًا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُWhen He has decreed something, He says to it only:"Be! ـ and it is.meaning, what Allah wills, comes into existence instantly and without delay.In another Ayah, Allah said,وَمَأ أَمْرُنَأ إِلاَّ وَحِدَةٌ كَلَمْحٍ بِالْبَصَرِAnd Our commandment is but one as the twinkling of an eye. (54:50),meaning, "We only issue the command once, and it comes into existence instantly, as fast as, and faster than, a blink of the eye.
