Mary

Quran: House Of Imran




When the wife of Imran
Said, ‘ Lord, I have vowed
To Thee, in dedication,
What is within my womb.
Receive Thou this from me;
Thou hearest, and knowest.’
And when she gave birth to her
She said, ‘ Lord, I have given
Birth to her, a female.’
And God knew very well
What she had given birth to;
The male is not as the female.
‘ and I have named her Mary,
And commend her to Thee
With her seed, to protect them
From the accursed Satan.’
Her Lord received the child
With gracious favour,
And by His goodness
She grew up comely.
