Nothing is even remotely difficult for Allah

Always have faith in what Allah can do for you, because nothing is difficult for Him in the slightest. He does what He sees fit, in the manner He deems best. When Jibril conveyed the news of a son to Maryam (AS), she was taken aback, and prayed, 'My Lord, how will I have a child when no man has touched me?' (3:47) The angel simply replied, 'Such is Allah. He creates what He wills. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, ‗Be,‘ and it is.' (3:47) Zakariya (AS) prayed for a child, and was also conveyed the news of a righteous son, Yahya (AS), through angels ' but in his old age. He asked, astonished, 'My Lord, how will I have a boy when I have reached old age and my wife is barren?' (3:40) Again, the reply was, 'Such is Allah. He does what He wills.' (3:40)
