فنادته الملائكة وهو واقف بين يدي الله في مكان صلاته يدعوه: أن الله يخبرك بخبر يسرُّك، وهو أنك سترزق بولد اسمه يحيى، يُصَدِّق بكلمة من الله -وهو عيسى ابن مريم عليه السلام-، ويكون يحيى سيدًا في قومه، له المكانة والمنزلة العالية، وحصورًا لا يأتي الذنوب والشهوات الضارة، ويكون نبيّاً من الصالحين الذين بلغوا في الصَّلاح ذروته.
