Iṅjeel : Mattā 14:14-33

Jab Īsā^(a.s) wahaaṅ pahuṅche to dekhā ki ek bahut baḍī bheeḍ wahaaṅ pahale se hī maujud hai. Unhone āe hue logoṅ par apnī nazre karam karī aur unmeṅ se jo beemaar the unkā ilaaj kiyā.⁽¹⁴⁾ Jaise hī shaam qareeb āī, unke shaagird unke paas āe aur bole, “Ye jagah shahar se bahut dur hai aur raat bhī hone waalī hai. Inko waapas bhej deṅ taaki ye log apne liye khaane kā iṅtazaam kar sakeṅ.”⁽¹⁵⁾

Īsā^(a.s) ne kahā, “Unheṅ kaheeṅ jaane kī zarurat naheeṅ hai. Tum log unke khaane kā iṅtazaam karo.⁽¹⁶⁾ Unhone jawaab diyā ke khaane me unke paas paaṅch roṯiyaaṅ aur do bhunī macẖliyaaṅ hī haiṅ.”⁽¹⁷⁾

Īsā^(a.s) bole ki sab logoṅ ko mere paas le kar āo.⁽¹⁸⁾ Unhone logoṅ ko ghaas par baiṯh jaane kā ishaarā kiyā aur haath me un paaṅch roṯiyoṅ aur do bhunī macẖliyoṅ ko uṯhā kar āsmaan kī taraf dekhā aur Allaah kā shukr adā kiyā. Unhone roṯiyoṅ ko toḍ kar shaagirdoṅ ko denā shuru kiyā aur shaagirdoṅ ne wahaaṅ maujud logoṅ me usko baaṅṯā.⁽¹⁹⁾

Wahaaṅ maujud har ek iṅsaan ne peṯ bhar kar tasallī se khaayā. Sab logoṅ ke khaane ke baad bhī baarah roṯī kī ṯokriyaaṅ bach gaeeṅ theeṅ jinko shaagirdoṅ ne uṯhaayā.⁽²⁰⁾ Khaanā khaane waale mardoṅ kī taadaad paaṅch hazaar thī jismeṅ aurateṅ aur bacchoṅ kī gintī shaamil naheeṅ hai.⁽²¹⁾

Īsā^(a.s) ne apne shaagirdoṅ se kahā ki wo sab kashtī par sawaar ho kar nadī ke us paar jaaeṅ tab tak wo logoṅ ko widā kar rahe haiṅ.⁽²²⁾ Sab ke chale jaane ke baad wo pahaaḍoṅ kī taraf ibaadat karne chale gae aur wahaaṅ us raat akele hī ruke.⁽²³⁾ Kashtī jheel ke kinaare se bahut dur jā chukī thī aur tez hawā se uṯhī paanī kī lahareṅ us se ṯakrā rahī theeṅ.⁽²⁴⁾

Subah hone se thoḍā pahale, Īsā^(a.s) unke paas, jheel ke paanī par chalte hue pahuṅche.⁽²⁵⁾ Jab unke shaagirdoṅ ne unheṅ jheel ke paanī par chaltā dekhā to wo sab ḏar gae. Wo sabhī ek saath bole, “Ye paanī kā jin hai,” aur phir ḏar ke maare cheeḳḥne lage.⁽²⁶⁾ Īsā^(a.s) ne unse fauran kahā, “Himmat se kaam lo! Ye maiṅ huṅ. Ḏaro naheeṅ.”⁽²⁷⁾

“Are maalik, ye āp haiṅ,” janaab Patras bole, “To mujhe paanī me apne paas bulaaeee.”⁽²⁸⁾

Īsā^(a.s) ne kahā, “Ā jaao.” Tab janaab Patras kashtī se neeche utre aur paanī par chal kar Īsā^(a.s) kī taraf jaane lage.⁽²⁹⁾ Lekin jab unhone hawā se uṯhtī huī paanī kī laharoṅ ko dekhā to wo ḏar gae, aur ḏubne lage. Unhone pukaar kar kahā, “Maulā, merī madad karie!”⁽³⁰⁾

Īsā^(a.s) ne fauran apnā haath baḍhā kar unheṅ pakaḍ liyā aur bole, “Tumhaarā īmaan kacchā hai. Tum shak me kyuṅ paḍ gae?”⁽³¹⁾

Jab wo kashtī me ā gae, to hawā bhī ḳḥaamosh ho gaī.⁽³²⁾ Kashtī me maujud logoṅ ne taazeem me apnā sar jhukaayā, aur bole, “Sach me āp hī Maseehā haiṅ.”⁽³³⁾
