The story of the Virgin Mary in the


Quran
3:35-" (Remember) when the wife of 'Imran said: "O my
Lord! I have vowed to You what (the child that) is in my
womb to be dedicated for Your services (free from all
worldly work; to serve Your Place of worship), so accept
this, from me. Verily, You are the All-Hearer, the All-
Knowing."
3:36-Then when she delivered her [child Maryam
(Mary)], she said: "O my Lord! I have delivered a female
child," - and Allah knew better what she delivered, - "And
the male is not like the female, and I have named her
Maryam (Mary), and I seek refuge with You (Allah) for
her and for her offspring from Shaitan (Satan), the
outcast."

3:37-So her Lord (Allah) accepted her with goodly


acceptance. He made her grow in a good manner and put
her under the care of Zakariya (Zachariya). Every time he
entered Al-Mihrab to (visit) her , he found her supplied
with sustenance. He said: "O Maryam (Mary)! From where
have you got this?" She said, "This is from Allah." Verily,
Allah provides sustenance to whom He wills, without
limit."

3:38-At that time Zakariya (Zachariya) invoked his Lord,


saying: "O my Lord! Grant me from You, a good offspring.
You are indeed the All-Hearer of invocation."

3:39-Then the angels called him, while he was standing in


prayer in Al-Mihrab (a praying place or a private room),
(saying): "Allah gives you glad tidings of Yahya (John),
confirming (believing in) the Word from Allah [i.e. the
creation of 'Iesa (Jesus), the Word from Allah ("Be!" - and
he was!)], noble, keeping away from sexual relations with
women, a Prophet, from among the righteous."

3:40-"He said: "O my Lord! How can I have a son when I


am very old, and my wife is barren?" Allah said: "Thus
Allah does what He wills."

3:41-He said: "O my Lord! Make a sign for me." Allah said:
"Your sign is that you shall not speak to mankind for three
days except with signals. And remember your Lord much
(by praising Him again and again), and glorify (Him) in
the afternoon and in the morning."

3:42-And (remember) when the angels said: "O Maryam


(Mary)! Verily, Allah has chosen you, purified you (from
polytheism and disbelief), and chosen you above the
women of the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns) (of her
lifetime)."

3:43-"O Mary! "Submit yourself with obedience to your


Lord (Allah, by worshipping none but Him Alone) and
prostrate yourself, and Irka'i (bow down etc.) along with
Ar-Raki'un (those who bow down etc.)."

3:44-This is a part of the news of the Ghaib (unseen, i.e.


the news of the past nations of which you have no
knowledge) which We inspire you with (O Muhammad ).
You were not with them, when they cast lots with their
pens as to which of them should be charged with the care
of Maryam (Mary); nor were you with them when they
disputed.
3:45-(Remember) when the angels said: "O Maryam
(Mary)! Verily, Allah gives you the glad tidings of a Word
["Be!" - and he was! i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus) the son of Maryam
(Mary)] from Him, his name will be the Messiah 'Iesa
(Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), held in honour in this
world and in the Hereafter, and will be one of those who
are near to Allah."

3:46-"He will speak to the people in the cradle and in


manhood, and he will be one of the righteous."

3:47-She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when


no man has touched me." He said: "So (it will be) for Allah
creates what He wills. When He has decreed something,
He says to it only: "Be!" and it is.

3:48-And He (Allah) will teach him ['Iesa (Jesus)] the Book


and Al-Hikmah (i.e. the Sunnah, the faultless speech of the
Prophets, wisdom, etc.), (and) the Taurat (Torah) and the
Injeel (Gospel).

3:49-And will make him ['Iesa (Jesus)] a Messenger to the


Children of Israel (saying): "I have come to you with a sign
from your Lord, that I design for you out of clay, as it
were, the figure of a bird, and breathe into it, and it
becomes a bird by Allah's Leave; and I heal him who was
born blind, and the leper, and I bring the dead to life by
Allah's Leave. And I inform you of what you eat, and what
you store in your houses. Surely, therein is a sign for you,
if you believe.

3:50-And I have come confirming that which was before


me of the Taurat (Torah), and to make lawful to you part
of what was forbidden to you, and I have come to you with
a proof from your Lord. So fear Allah and obey me.

3:51-Truly! Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship


Him (Alone). This is the Straight Path.

3:53-Then when 'Iesa (Jesus) came to know of their


disbelief, he said: "Who will be my helpers in Allah's
Cause?" Al-Hawariun (the disciples) said: "We are the
helpers of Allah; we believe in Allah, and bear witness that
we are Muslims (i.e. we submit to Allah)."
3:53-Our Lord! We believe in what You have sent down,
and we follow the Messenger ['Iesa (Jesus)]; so write us
down among those who bear witness (to the truth i.e. La
ilaha ill-Allah - none has the right to be worshipped but
Allah).

3:54-And they (disbelievers) plotted [to kill 'Iesa (Jesus)],


and Allah planned too. And Allah is the Best of the
planners.

3:55-And (remember) when Allah said: "O 'Iesa (Jesus)! I


will take you and raise you to Myself and clear you [of the
forged statement that 'Iesa (Jesus) is Allah's son] of those
who disbelieve, and I will make those who follow you
(Monotheists, who worship none but Allah) superior to
those who disbelieve [in the Oneness of Allah, or
disbelieve in some of His Messengers, e.g. Muhammad ,
'Iesa (Jesus), Musa (Moses), etc., or in His Holy Books, e.g.
the Taurat (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel), the Qur'an] till the
Day of Resurrection. Then you will return to Me and I will
judge between you in the matters in which you used to
dispute."
3:56-"As to those who disbelieve, I will punish them with
a severe torment in this world and in the Hereafter, and
they will have no helpers."

3:57-And as for those who believe (in the Oneness of


Allah) and do righteous good deeds, Allah will pay them
their reward in full. And Allah does not like the Zalimun
(polytheists and wrong-doers).

3:58-This is what We recite to you (O Muhammad ) of the


Verses and the Wise Reminder (i.e. the Qur'an).

3:59-Verily, the likeness of 'Iesa (Jesus) before Allah is the


likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said
to him: "Be!" - and he was.

3:60-(This is) the truth from your Lord, so be not of those


who doubt.
3:61-Then whoever disputes with you concerning him
['Iesa (Jesus)] after (all this) knowledge that has come to
you, [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus)] being a slave of Allah, and having no
share in Divinity) say: (O Muhammad ) "Come, let us call
our sons and your sons, our women and your women,
ourselves and yourselves - then we pray and invoke
(sincerely) the Curse of Allah upon those who lie."

3:62-Verily! This is the true narrative [about the story of


'Iesa (Jesus)], and, La ilaha ill-Allah (none has the right to
be worshipped but Allah, the One and the Only True God,
Who has neither a wife nor a son). And indeed, Allah is
the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

3:63-And if they turn away (and do not accept these true


proofs and evidences), then surely, Allah is All-Aware of
those who do mischief.
