Granting

And give the women [upon marriage] their [bridal] gifts¹ graciously. But if they give up willingly to you anything of it, then take it in satisfaction and ease.²

Praise to Allāh, who has granted to me in old age Ishmael and Isaac. Indeed, my Lord is the Hearer of supplication.

He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy [i.e., son]."

So when he had left them and those they worshipped other than Allāh, We gave him Isaac and Jacob, and each [of them] We made a prophet.

And indeed, I fear the successors¹ after me, and my wife has been barren, so give me from Yourself an heir

And We gave him Isaac and Jacob in addition, and all [of them] We made righteous.

So We responded to him, and We gave to him John, and amended for him his wife. Indeed, they used to hasten to good deeds and supplicate¹ Us in hope and fear, and they were to Us humbly submissive.

And those who say, "Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes¹ and make us a leader [i.e., example] for the righteous."

[And he said], "My Lord, grant me authority and join me with the righteous.

But indeed, I will send to them a gift and see with what [reply] the messengers will return."

So when they came to Solomon, he said, "Do you provide me with wealth? But what Allāh has given me is better than what He has given you. Rather, it is you who rejoice in your gift.

And We gave to him Isaac and Jacob and placed in his descendants prophethood and scripture. And We gave him his reward in this world, and indeed, he is in the Hereafter among the righteous.

And to David We gave Solomon. An excellent servant, indeed he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allāh].

He said, "My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as will not belong to anyone after me. Indeed, You are the Bestower."

And We granted him his family and a like [number] with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for those of understanding.

Or do they have the depositories of the mercy of your Lord, the Exalted in Might, the Bestower?¹

To Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; He creates what He wills. He gives to whom He wills female [children], and He gives to whom He wills males.
