We accepted their prayers and relieved them of their distress and gave them children
(Surat al-Anbiya ', 84)
Thus Allah mentioned the helplessness of Hazrat Zakariya (as) in the Qur'an. Hazrat Zakariya's wife was barren. She could not have children. Hazrat Zakariya (peace be upon him) got old And Allah granted the prayer and gave birth to a child from a wife who could not have children. Then Zakariya (as) said to Allah.
"My Lord, I have never been deprived of asking You."
(Surah Maryam verse 4)
When he cried out to his Lord softly
And he said: My Lord! My bones are weakened by old age, and my head is burning by old age.
And I am afraid of my brothers after me and my wife is barren, so give me an heir from you
O Zechariah, we give you glad tidings of a boy whose name is John
He said: O my Lord! Where will my son come from? My wife is barren and I have reached the stage of drying up due to old age
It was said that it would be so easy for me and I had already created you and you were nothing.
(Qur'an, Surah Maryam)
Then in the Qur'an Allah mentions the incident of Hazrat Yunus (as) that when he went into the belly of the fish it was a sign of helplessness. Darkness and darkness of the belly of the third fish and then Hazrat Yunus (as) cried out to Allah in helplessness.
They cried out to God in the dark, "There is no god but you. You are pure. Indeed, I am guilty."
Praise be to Allah. We answered the call of Jonah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and took him out from where all the exits were blocked.
"So We heard their cry and delivered them out of their distress."
My friends Allah mentioned these incidents in the Qur'an so that my servants would never despair of me. He made Mary the son of a father, and made Joseph a king out of a prisoner.
That is why we should keep asking Allah Almighty at all times. What is difficult for Allah? The essence of Allah is that which can create success even in failures.
