Inspiration of Ayah to Mujaddid Alf Thani: Glad-Tidings of a Boy Named Yahya (19:7)

 بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

والصلاة والسلام على نبيه الامين

The great Reformer, Mujaddid Alf Thānī, Imām Rabbānī, Ahmad Sirhindī رحمة الله عليه received the following Ilhām (inspiration) which is an Āyah of the Qurān:

اِنَّا نُبَشِّرُکَ بِغُلٰمِ ۣاسۡمُہٗ یَحۡیٰی

We give you glad-tidings of a boy, his name is Yahyā

Subsequently, a son was born to Mujaddid Alf Thānī and he named him Muhammad Yahyā (Maqāmāt Imām Rabbānī, p.136)
