إِنَّ

عِندَ
اللَّهِ
كَمَثَلِ
آدَمَ
خَلَقَهُ
مِن
تُرَابٍ
ثُمَّ
قَالَ
لَهُ
كُن
فَيَكُونُ
ʾinna mathala ʿīsā ʿinda llāhi ka-mathali ʾādama khalaqahū min turābin thumma qāla lahū kun fa-yakūnu
The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Indeed the case of Jesus with Allah is like the case of Adam: He created him from dust, then said to him, ‘Be,’ and he was.
