Hawariyyun is the plural of Hawariyy which means, (1) a washerman; (2) one tried and found to be free from vice or fault (3) a person of pure and unsullied character; (4) one who advises or counsels or acts honestly and faithfully; (5) a true and sincere friend or helper; (6) a select friend and helper of a Prophet (Lane & Mufradat).
5:112; 61:15.
Important Words:
الحواریون (disciples) is the plural of حواری (a disciple) which is derived from حار which means, he or it returned; or he became perplexed. حار الثوب means, he washed the cloth and rendered it white. حواری means: (1) one who whitens clothes by washing them, i.e. a washerman; (2) one who has been tried and found to be free from vice or fault; (3) a person of pure and unsullied character; (4) one who advises or counsels or acts honestly and faithfully; (5) a true and sincere friend or helper; (6) a select friend and helper of a Prophet; (7) a relation. The disciples of Jesus were called حواریون because they helped him in his work, or because they were white or pure of heart, or because they made the hearts of other people white and pure by their noble teachings and good example, or (as some have thought) because some of them were washermen by profession (Lane, Aqrab & Mufradat). The Quran has used the word in the sense of helpers, as the words that follow indicate.
Commentary:
In this verse, the Quran has cleared the disciples of Jesus of the serious lapses ascribed to them in the Gospels. They were sincere helpers in the cause of God, believing in the mission of Jesus and making no secret of their faith.
The word حواری as explained under Important Words above, signifies a reliable helper and disciple of a Prophet. From an authentic saying of the Holy Prophet, the word appears to have also been once applied by him to one of his trustworthy and distinguished Companions, Zubair bin ‘Awwam, who, on an occasion of great danger, went alone boldly in the enemy camp during an extremely cold and dark night and brought back necessary information (Bukhari).

اِنَّ مَثَلَ عِیۡسٰی عِنۡدَ اللّٰہِ کَمَثَلِ اٰدَمَ ۖ خَلَقَہٗ مِنۡ تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَہٗ کُنۡ فَیَکُوۡنُ
阿丹原来要代表人类,即阿丹的子孙。因而说伊撒像其他从泥土中创造出来的凡人 (40:68), 所以他不可能是上帝 (安拉)。然而, 如果 “阿丹” 这字用来指人类的祖先, 那么, 此节经文就能用来说明伊撒和阿丹之间的相似之处: 他们没有父亲就可降生。既然是这样, 伊撒有个母亲这一事实不会影响如上所述的这种相似性, 它不需要在各方面都完全相似。
«古兰经» 中另外一处说人是从泥土中生出来的 (6:3)。“尘土” 和 “泥土” 两词所表示的不同概念是: 用 “尘土” 这词时, 不含有启示 (精神的水) 的意思; 而用 “泥土” 这词时, 同时也表示有启示的概念。
معلوم ہوا کہ باقی وجودوں کی طرح قرآن کریم کے رو سے عیسٰیؑ بھی مٹی سے پیدا ہوئے تھے اور ان کو کوئی غیر معمولی اہمیت حاصل نہ تھی۔ کیونکہ جتنے لوگ ماں باپ سے پیدا ہوتے ہیں قرآن کریم کے محاورہ میں وہ بھی مٹی سے پیدا ہوتے ہیں۔
شیطان کے ذکر میں اور کئی دوسری آیات میں آدم کی پیدائش طِیْن سے بتائی گئی ہے یعنی ایسی مٹی جس میں الہام کا پانی ملا ہوا تھا۔ لیکن ان آیات میں آدمؑ اور عیسٰیؑ دونوں کی پیدائش تُرَاب سے بتائی گئی ہے یعنی ایسی مٹی جس میں الہام کی آمیزش نہ تھی۔ ان دونوں بیانات میں کوئی اختلاف نہیں کیونکہ آدم سے مراد یہاں آدم نہیں اور عیسیٰ سے مراد صرف عیسیٰ نہیں بلکہ آدم اور ابنائے آدم اور عیسیٰ اور اَتباعِ عیسیٰ مراد ہیں اور ان لوگوں میں سے ایک جماعت الہام کو نظر انداز کرنے والی تھی۔ پس بحیثیت جماعت دونوں کی پیدائش تُرَاب سے قرار دی گئی۔
Adam primarily stands for man, i.e. the sons of Adam generally. Jesus is thus declared to be like other mortals who have all been created from dust (40:68), and so there can be no Divinity about him. If, however, the word "Adam" be taken to refer to the progenitor of the human race, then the verse would be taken to point to the resemblance between Jesus and Adam in being born without the agency of a male parent. In this case, the fact that Jesus had a mother would not affect the likeness which, as stated above, need not be complete in all respects.
Elsewhere, man is stated to have been born out of clay (6:3). The difference sought to be indicated by the use of 'dust' and 'clay' is that when the word 'dust' is used, the idea of revelation (heavenly water) is not implied, but where 'clay' is used the idea of revelation is also indicated.
Commentary:
The word مثل (case) is used to express resemblance, which may be of different kind and different degrees. Sometimes, the thing likened is equal to that to which it is likened, sometimes the former is superior to the latter, and sometimes the latter is superior to the former. So it is not necessary that the thing likened to another should be equal, or ever similar, to the latter in all respects. The likeness between Adam and Jesus referred to in this verse, may, therefore, not be stretched too far.

In this case, the fact that Jesus had a mother would not affect the likeness which, as stated above, need not be complete in all respects.
The words, then He said to him, "Be" and he was, show that the command refers not to the birth of Jesus (for the fact of his creation has already been mentioned in the words خلقه i.e. He created him, occurring in the preceding part of the verse), but to his death. The use of the word کن (Be) in relation to death should not sound odd, for, according to the teaching of Islam, death is not the end of life but simply a change, the beginning of a new life. The meaning in this case would be that after having created Jesus and having allowed him the prescribed lease of life in this world, God caused him to die and took his soul away to the next world. The expression, "Be" and he was, may also refer to the creation or birth of Jesus in the sense that, after giving him the human form in the womb of his mother, God said to him "Be", i.e. become quickened with life, whereupon he became alive. Again, the reference may also be to the spiritual life, i.e. after creating Jesus in the form of a man, God called upon him to become a Prophet, which was the ultimate end of his creation, and consequently he became a Prophet. Whatever the interpretation, the verse constitutes a clear refutation of the Christian belief in the divinity of Jesus on the plea of his unusual birth.
As for the creation of man from تراب (dust), we shall give a suitable note when we come to the verses directly dealing with the subject.

The word مثل (case) is used to express resemblance, which may be of different kind and different degrees. Sometimes, the thing likened is equal to that to which it is likened, sometimes the former is superior to the latter, and sometimes the latter is superior to the former.

The likeness between Adam and Jesus referred to in this verse, may, therefore, not be stretched too far.
