and be obedient.Allah does not guide the evil-doers.
One day, Allah will gather all the apostles and ask them: 'How were
you received?' They will reply: 'We do not know. You alone have
knowledge of what is hidden.' ThenAllah will say: 'Isa, son of Mariam,
remember the favour I have bestowed on you and on your mother: how
I strengthened you with the Holy Spirit, so that you preached to men in
your cradle and in the prime of manhood; how I instructed you in the
Book and in wisdom, in the Torah and in the Gospel; how by My leave
you fashioned from clay the likeness of a bird and breathed into it so
that, by My leave, it became a living bird; how, by My leave, you
healed the blind man and the leper, and by My leave restored the dead
to life; and how I protected you from the Children of Israel when you
brought them clear signs: thereupon the unbelievers among them said:
“This is nothing but plain magic”; howwhen I enjoined the disciples to
believe in Me and in My Apostle they replied: “We believe, bear
witness that we submit.”
'Isa, son of Mariam,' said the disciples, 'can your Lord send down to
us a table (set with food) fromheaven?'
He replied: 'Have fear ofAllah, if you are true believers.'
'We wish to eat of it,' they said, 'so that we may reassure our hearts
and know that what you said to us is true, and that we may be witnesses
to it.'
'Allah, our Lord,' said Isa, the son of Mariam, 'send to us food from
heaven, that it may mark a feast for us and for those that will come after
us: a sign fromYou. Give us our sustenance;You are the best Giver.'
