114. قَالَ
عِيسَى ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ ٱللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَآ أَنزِلْ عَلَيْنَا مَآئِدَةً مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ
تَكُونُ لَنَا عِيدًا لِّأَوَّلِنَا وَءَاخِرِنَا وَءَايَةً مِّنكَ ۖ وَٱرْزُقْنَا
وَأَنتَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ
114. Jesus, son of Mary, said: O Allah, Lord of us! Send
down for us a Table Spread with Food from Heaven, that it may be a feast for
us, for the first of us and for the last of us, and a sign from Thee. And
give us sustenance, for indeed Thou art the Best of Sustainers.

Commentary
Maaa-‘idatan –
(the Table Spread with Food), this word indicates towards the wish of the
companions of Jesus (peace be upon Him), that the Table Spread with prepared
Food should be sent down from Heaven by Allah Almighty and they
should be given everything without any struggle.
As per previous verse,
when the disciples, who believed in Christ (peace be upon Him) said: We do
not want to test Allah Almighty, but we request only for His
particular Kindness, so that we may be grateful to Him freely and engage in His
worship wholeheartedly and obey His commands and Your truth may be quite
evident upon us and we may see its sign clearly.
Then Jesus (peace be upon Him)
supplicated: Our Lord! Only You are Able to fulfill and provide our all
requirements. Kindly do not keep us necessitous of struggle in getting needful
things but send down for us a Table Spread with Food from the Heaven, that it may
be a feast and pleasure for us, for the first of us and for the last of us, and
an open sign of Your Kindness may come in our hands. You are the Best of the
Sustainers for all of us and certainly the sustenance comes from You in every
condition. You can change the way of providing the sustenance without any
delay. Everything is in Your Power. Neither anyone can be equal to You in
providing food and sustenance, nor can act like You, whether someone is much
liberal or wealthy.
It is clear
that this supplication of Jesus (peace be upon Him) was for providing facility
to the companions so that they may thank Allah Almighty and obey His
Commands whole the time.
