What is the wisdom behind the creation of Jesus (pbuh) without a father?

[فداء الرسول]

A Brief Description of the Question:
What is the wisdom behind the creation of Jesus (pbuh) without a father?


The Answer:
Man has not seen his creation, which is the most interesting event in the history of mankind. Nobody saw the first man, who was created without a mother or father. When so many centuries passed after this event, the wisdom of God willed to display another extraordinary event with the creation of Jesus (pbuh) without a father. This birth is contrary to the rules of reproduction, which have been valid on earth since the creation of man.
The aim is to make man witness this wonder and to make it exist in the history of man as a remarkable event. God wanted to show man, who was not able to concentrate on the first miracle of creation, a miracle that would never be deleted from his memory.

According to the law of God that enables the maintenance of the species, all of the species, without any exceptions, reproduce through the insemination of the female by the male. In the living species in which the gender cannot be discerned clearly, we see that there are even cells of both masculinity and femininity together in the same individual. Due to the operation of this law for centuries, man believed that it was the only way of reproduction. Believing like that, man forgot the first creation, the creation out of nothing. For, this event was contrary to the rigid perceptions of the minds. Therefore, God wanted to show man the example of Jesus (pbuh). Through this example, God wanted to show the limitlessness of His power, the freedom of His will and that this power and will cannot be limited with the natural laws that operate based on His own reference.
Another example like the birth of Jesus (pbuh) was not seen after that because what is normal is the operation of the laws imposed by God and the natural laws preferred by God. This unique incident, whose aim is to prove actually that the freedom of the divine will is not restricted to the natural laws, was seen sufficient as a manifest example that will always be in front of the eyes of people. As a matter of fact, God states the following about the wisdom behind the creation of Jesus (pbuh) without a father:

He said: ‘So (it will be)’: thy Lord saith `That is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us': it is a matter (so) decreed. (Maryam, 19/21)

Since the incident was very astonishing and extraordinary, some people could not understand it as it was and could not perceive the wisdom behind it. Therefore, they attributed some qualities of divinity to Jesus and they invented various superstitions and tales regarding his death. Thus, they reversed the wisdom behind his incredible creation without a father. The wisdom behind his creation without a father was, as we have mentioned above, to prove the limitlessness of the divine power. The people who attributed divinity to him reversed this wisdom and damaged the belief in the oneness of God.
This striking and extraordinary incident is narrated in the verses 16-34 of the chapter of Maryam in the Quran.

Some cannot comprehend Jesus (PBUH) being born without a father. How can we make an explanation for them?

---

One of the points which most people wonder about is Jesus Christs having been born without a father. Some cannot comprehend this.

Here what misleads us is our perspective. We usually make a comparison considering that deeds of Allah and those of us are similar. We must know that the word of be is enough for Allah to make something happen for the things, which are impossible for us to do. That Allahs commanding, Be is enough for the things to be, which are impossible for us to do. Not only was Jesus Christ (PBUH) born without a father. There are many examples like this in the world of the living beings. Bees are only one of these examples.

As known, there is a queen bee in each beehive. Once in her life, she goes out flying for a mating. During this flying, she mates with the speediest male bee; and the sperm (male reproductive cells) she gets from him is stored in a sac. After she returns to the hive, she starts to produce eggs. Eggs pass by the sac in which there are sperms. At this moment, the sperms fertilized some eggs. Some come out of the eggs even without fertilization. Female bees come out from the fertilized eggs and male bees from the ones, which have not been fertilized. We call this kind of reproduction Parthenogenesis reproduction in biology.

If we deny the birth of Jesus Christ without a father by saying we cannot comprehend it, how can we explain the birth of billions of male bees without a father each year?

Another example is aphids. These insects, which live on sucking sap from the leaves and buds of some plants in the spring, produce young ones without mating (namely without father). All of these young ones are female. Insects, which mate with males in the autumn, do not produce young ones but they produce eggs. In the spring, young female ones come out from these fertilized eggs. Males come into existence only in the autumn.

Daphnis also show parthenogenesis (namely without father) reproduction in a certain season. Young ones come out from the eggs, which are unfertilized.

As seen above, both aphids and daphnia reproductions without father are not constant. They occur only in certain seasons. That is to say, Allah Almighty indirectly says, I am able to change the law of reproduction with my wisdom whenever I wish. I am able to create living beings without a father as well as with father. Let causes not mislead you.

It is possible to increase the examples more. Ants, itch mites, and some of worms reproduce asexually by parthenogenesis (without father).

Our parents are just causes for our coming to the world. Do they have any other role apart from this? For example, is it our mother or father who has given our eyes and hands? Moreover, where do we have our spiritual tools such as mind, memory, imagination, hate, compassion? Let us consider our body, which takes its present form by first growing out of a single cell. Who is that owner of power who has made this marvelous building from a single cell?

Since we exist, cannot deny ourselves, and were created from a single cell, how is it that the owner of knowledge and power cannot create us without father and mother? Is it not Him Who created our mother and father too. The laws of reproduction in the world do not have necessarily take place by means of a male and a female. Bacteria reproduce as rapidly within a few hours as to see their several previous generations. Nevertheless, there is neither father nor mother available. A bacterium divides into two and there appear two bacteria.

On the other hand, one must not forget that the first creation of millions of kinds of plants became without mother and father.

There might be an exception for every law. As an exception to the law of coming to the world by means of mother and father, Jesus (PBUH) was created. This is a testing for human beings. The Divine Wisdom wished so. Jesus (PBUH) is among the great prophets. The miracles, which were given to the prophets by Allah (SWT), were the same kind as what their contemporaries were advanced. Since at the time of Jesus (PBUH) medicine was popular and his creation became in a fatherless way that astonished and still astonishes the medical professionals; and he continued with his miracles such as resuscitating the dead.

That Jesus Christ (PBUH) was without a father neither brings deficiency into Allah Almightys power nor a decrease to His knowledge. On the contrary, it shows that He can create anybody in a way He wishes. With this incident, He warns us not to be drowned in the causes. He shows that parents are only causes, and, if His wisdom requires, He is able to create human beings and even all beings without parents as well.

Allah bless you and the writer

You are asking the wrong question. You should be asking why Jesus alone was created this way? There is no question that God is capable of creating anyone or anything in any manner God would wish. Behind every action of God there is a reason and that is the point you need to understand not the How... But the Why...

peace.

Dear Pandora

Do you see the creation of Adam as the same or greater than that of Jesus?

Do you believe that Adam having no parents somehow makes his creation more miraculous than that of Jesus?

Do you ask why was The birth of Jesus was ordained by God in such a way? Such as to make Jesus unique amongst mankind..

The Quran touches on this uniqueness but does not elaborate the upon the reason... Other than maybe the virgin birth was proof of Gods miraculous powers.. Proof for whom? Mankind had been witnessing miracles from God from eternity, mankind was already aware of the power and glory of the One true God. So that reasoning is rather weak. It's from such reasoning or maybe poor interpretation that you as a Muslim know very little of Jesus or His mission. Or maybe you can tell me in simple terms what you take as the meaning from the Quran of the need for Jesus to be born in such a manner. As God if He so willed could have created Jesus as fully man as Adam..without recourse to any parents... For this we know is not beyond the power of God. The Bible explains why Jesus needed to be born thus... And also why Adam and Jesus are intrinsically linked above other prophets.

Peace to you

Yes I do.

You continue to avoid the big question... Why do you believe God ordained that Jesus be born of a mortal woman?

are you still so blind that you cannot see the necessity in this miraculous birth? Damaged the oneness of God!!! I do think you or the author have lost your senses. Yet your first post is marginally less insulting to The Lord Jesus than your second post.. Which likens the miraculous birth to the reproduction of bees! Bees having fathers... Laughable at best at worse desperation on trying to explain away something you as muslims clearly have no understanding of. Which is the reason behind the birth of Christ Jesus and the intrinsic link between Adam and Jesus. The loss is yours and yours alone.

I wish you peace.
