فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْهَا قَالَتْ رَبِّ إِنِّى وَضَعْتُهَآ أُنثَىٰ وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا وَضَعَتْ وَلَيْسَ ٱلذَّكَرُ كَٱلْأُنثَىٰ وَإِنِّى سَمَّيْتُهَا مَرْيَمَ وَإِنِّىٓأُعِيذُهَا بِكَ وَذُرِّيَّتَهَا مِنَ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ ٱلرَّجِيمِ 36

35. (Remember) when the
wife of Imran said: My Lord! I have
vowed unto Thee that which is in my belly as a consecrated (offspring).
Accept it from me. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Hearer, the Knower!
36. And when she
brought forth she said: My Lord! Lo! I have brought it forth a female. And
Allah knew best of what she brought forth- and the male is not as the female;
and lo! I have named her Mary, and lo! I crave Thy protection for her and for
her offspring from Satan the outcast.

Commentary
‘Imra-‘atu ‘Imraana – (the wife of Imran), her name was Hunnah
bint e Faaquuz. She had made a vow unto Allah Almighty according to the
custom of her time that, which offspring was in her belly, she would set it
free in the name of Allah Almighty. It meant, “That the child will engage in
the worship of Allah Almighty only and serve the Church always being free from
all worldly works”. She also prayed, “O Lord! Accept it with Your kindness from
me. You are the Hearer of my request, and You know my aim as You are the
Knower”.
As
though, that woman prayed; hinting for the birth of a son to her (offspring).
But her hope did not come up and a daughter was born from her. Therefore, she
said with grief, “My Lord! Lo! I have brought forth a female”. Allah Almighty
commanded her that her daughter was very auspicious, she did not know that her
daughter would bring forth a blessed and honorable son {Prophet Jesus Christ
(peace be upon him)}.
The wife of Imran supplicated in the Court of God Almighty, “I have named her
Mary, and I crave Your protection for her and for her offspring from Satan the
outcast”. Allah Almighty accepted her prayer. We have learnt from this
narration that, “Although each kind of badness had been grown in the children
of Israel in those days, but even then some persons from them were present who
used to love Allah Almighty and they used to endow their children for religious
duty.
