CHAPTER 1
A long, long time ago in the land of
Palestine, there lived in the town of
Nazareth, a very pious Israelite
lady. Her name was Maryam.
One bright day, while the pious
Maryam was praying all alone,
there appeared an angel before her.
Maryam was terrified for she had
never seen an angel before. He
stood there before her, standing oh
so tall, and shining so bright, like
the golden-white sunlight. “
May
Allah protect me from you,
” she
called out, “
Now leave me alone
and go, if it is Allah you fear!
”
“
Do not be afraid, dear Maryam
,”
the angel said, “
For I am the angel
Jibra’il, a messenger from the Lord
of the Worlds.
”
