Kaaf Ha Ya Ain Sad

(A) mention

(of the) Mercy

(of) your Lord

(to) His servant

Zakariya

When

he called

(to) his Lord

a call

secret

He said

My Lord

Indeed, [I]

(have) weakened

my bones

my bones

and flared

(my) head

(with) white

and not

I have been

in (my) supplication (to) You

my Lord

unblessed

And indeed, I

[I] fear

the successors

after me

after me

and is

my wife

barren

So give

[to] me

from

Yourself

an heir

Who will inherit me

and inherit

from

(the) family

(of) Yaqub

And make him

my Lord

pleasing

O Zakariya

Indeed, We

[We] give you glad tidings

of a boy

his name

(will be) Yahya

not

We (have) assigned

[for] it

before

before

(this) name

He said

My Lord

How

can

I have

a boy

while is

my wife

barren

and indeed

I have reached

of

the old age

extreme

He said

Thus

said

your Lord

'It

(is) easy for Me

(is) easy for Me

and certainly

I (have) created you

before

before

while not

you were

anything.'

He said

My Lord

Make

for me

a sign

He said

Your sign

(is) that not

you will speak

(to) the people

(for) three

nights

sound

Then he came out

to

his people

from

the prayer chamber

and he signaled

to them

to

glorify (Allah)

(in) the morning

and (in) the evening
