15 Preface وَسَلامٌ عَلَيهِ يَومَ وُلِدَ وَيَومَ يَموتُ وَيَومَ يُبعَثُ حَيًّاYusuf AliSo Peace on him the day he was born, the day that he dies, and the day that he will be raised up to life (again)!1This is spoken as in the lifetime of Yahya. Peace and God’s Blessings were on him when he was born; they continue when he is about to die an unjust death at the hands of a tyrant; and they will be specially manifest at the Day of Judgment.
