Traduzione dei significati Versetto 25 Sura Maryam - Traduzione inglese - Abdullah Hasan Yaqub - L'Enciclopedia del Nobile Corano

Versetto: 25

وَهُزِّيٓ إِلَيۡكِ بِجِذۡعِ ٱلنَّخۡلَةِ تُسَٰقِطۡ عَلَيۡكِ رُطَبٗا جَنِيّٗا

25. And shake towards you the trunk of the palm tree, it will drop on you fresh ripe dates⁵:

5. It is clear from this Verse that Jesus actually born in summer not winter, as fresh dates are only produced in the summer. According to this Verse, during labour Mary was told to shake a palm tree so that ripe dates would fall off. This description, combined with the ripening period of dates places the birth of Jesus somewhere between June and August – something to do in warmer weather, not in the chilly December air of Bethlehem.
