An old prophet, his bones weakened, his head filled with white, his wife barren — yet never once unhappy in his supplication. He called to his Lord privately in the prayer chamber, and Allah answered with a son whose name had never been given before: John. The story of Prophet Zechariah and Prophet John from the Qur’an and authentic Hadith only, without Israiliyyat. “My Lord, do not leave me alone.”
“And [mention] Zechariah, when he called to his Lord, ‘My Lord, do not leave me alone [with no heir], while You are the best of inheritors.’”
