Marry's story

( 16 )   And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.
( 17 )   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.
( 18 )   She said, "Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah."
( 19 )   He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy."
( 20 )   She said, "How can I have a boy while no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste?"
( 21 )   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.' "
( 22 )   So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a remote place.
( 23 )   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."
( 24 )   But he called her from below her, "Do not grieve; your Lord has provided beneath you a stream.
( 25 )   And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree; it will drop upon you ripe, fresh dates.
( 26 )   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.' "
( 27 )   Then she brought him to her people, carrying him. They said, "O Mary, you have certainly done a thing unprecedented.
( 28 )   O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste."
( 29 )   So she pointed to him. They said, "How can we speak to one who is in the cradle a child?" !!!
