And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east
And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen. Then We sent to her Our Angel, and he represented himself to her as a well-proportioned man
She said, "Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah
He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy
She said, "How can I have a boy while no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste
He said, "Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, 'It is easy for Me, and We will make him a sign to the people and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter [already] decreed
So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a remote place
And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She said, "Oh, I wish I had died before this and was in oblivion, forgotten
But he called her from below her, "Do not grieve; your Lord has provided beneath you a stream
And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree; it will drop upon you ripe, fresh dates
So eat and drink and be contented. And if you see from among humanity anyone, say, 'Indeed, I have vowed to the Most Merciful abstention, so I will not speak today to [any] man
Then she brought him to her people, carrying him. They said, "O Mary, you have certainly done a thing unprecedented
O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste
So she pointed to him. They said, "How can we speak to one who is in the cradle a child
[Jesus] said, "Indeed, I am the servant of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet
And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakah as long as I remain alive
And [made me] dutiful to my mother, and He has not made me a wretched tyrant
And peace is on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I am raised alive
That is Jesus, the son of Mary - the word of truth about which they are in dispute
