MIRALES OF JESUS (AS)
Jesus
(as) performed many other miracles, by the permission of Allah,
other than his virgin birth and his declaration of his prophethood
as a new born child in the cradle. In fact, these two miracles
are sufficient to reveal the extraordinary nature of Jesus
(as). After all, only a miracle could make a new-born child
speak so rationally and with faith:
Remember when Allah said: "'Isa,
son of Maryam, remember My blessing to You and to your mother
when I reinforced you with the Purest Spirit so that you could
speak to people in the cradle and when you were fully grown;
and when I taught you the Book and Wisdom...." (Surat
al-Ma'ida: 110)
In the Qur'an, the miracles of Jesus (as) are related
thus:
…As a Messenger to the tribe of Israel, saying:
"I have brought you a Sign from your Lord. I will create the
shape of a bird out of a clay for you and then breathe into
it and it will be a bird by Allah's permission. I will heal
the blind and the leper, and bring the dead to life, by Allah's
permission. I will tell you what you eat and what you store
up in your homes. There is a Sign for you in that if you are
believers. (Surah Al 'Imran: 49)
Despite all the extraordinary events related so
far, some people arrogantly rejected the miracles of Jesus
(as) and said they were all magic.
