Verses 51-54Verse 50

      Here in this verse is a brief reference to Jesus Christ and his mother, Mary the virgin:ِ

      ``And We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign.''

      The exceptional birth of Jesus from a virgin mother has some connection with Mary the mother, and some relations with Jesus the son; and therefore, both of them in this verse have been introduced as one single sign of God.

      The virgin birth of Jesus, and his speech in the cradle as a baby were both miracles. When her mother was accused of unchastity, her son who was a baby in the cradle vindicated his mother, and clearly proved the falsehood of the calumny.

      Then the second clause of the verse indicates that God gave them a safe and secure shelter:ِ

      ``....And gave them shelter in a lofty land with comfort and spring.''

      As to the place wherein the mother and child, were given a secure shelter, commentators differ. Some say that it was NAZARETH, their home town. Some other are of opinion that the place was in Damascus. A third party know it to have been the place to which Mary went to deliver her child when the proper time for child birth approached.

      As it is cited in S 19:22ِ26; there, was a dry palm-tree on a high piece of land, beneath which Mary took a shelter; and first in anguish. Soon the palm-tree bore sweet fruit. Then beneath the tree, there flowed a stream of fresh clean water that gushed out of a spring. There she gave birth to Jesus Christ the Arch Prophet of God. Then after some repose, and a little spiritual prepration, Mary took her wonderful child and went to her family.
