EESA ﷺ

The Story of Eesa ﷺ

Allah blessed Eesa ﷺ with wisdom and made him a prophet and messenger to the Children of Israel. He was born miraculously to Maryam عليه السلام, without a father, by the command of Allah. From the beginning of his life, Allah gave him signs and blessings that showed His power and mercy.

Eesa ﷺ called his people to worship Allah alone and to follow His guidance. He taught them with wisdom and reminded them to have faith, obey Allah and show kindness towards others.

Allah gave Eesa ﷺ the ability, by His permission, to perform extraordinary miracles. He healed the blind and those with severe illness and brought the dead back to life by Allah's permission. These miracles were signs from Allah and showed His power and mercy.

Allah says:

“And I cure the blind and the leper, and I give life to the dead—by the permission of Allah.” (Quran 3:49)

Eesa ﷺ cared for people and brought them hope. His message reminded them that Allah is Merciful and that people should turn to Him with faith and obedience. He did not call people to himself, but directed them towards worshipping Allah.

Allah says that Eesa ﷺ was made “a messenger to the Children of Israel” (Quran 3:49), and he confirmed the truth of the revelation that came before him.

The story of Eesa ﷺ teaches us about the importance of mercy and compassion. We should care about the difficulties of others, offer help when we can and treat people with kindness. Like Eesa ﷺ, we should use whatever blessings Allah has given us to benefit others and guide them towards what is good.

Daily Application

Look for opportunities to show mercy and compassion to the people around you. Someone may be struggling without you knowing, so try to be patient with others and offer help when you can. A kind word, a helping hand or simply listening to someone can make a difference. Remember that the ability to help others is itself a blessing from Allah. Use what He has given you to bring comfort, kindness and hope to others.
