When the Chistian monks question Muhammad about the father of Jesus and ask how is it possible to be born without a father, Jibrîl brings down sections of the Sûrah Âl Imrân [...], which contains the Quranic version of the story of Mary and Jesus. Murad III, Sultan of the Turks, 1546-1595 35. When a woman of Imran said: My Lord! surely I vow to Thee what is in my womb, to be devoted (to Thy service); accept therefore from me, surely Thou art the Hearing, the Knowing. 36. So when she brought forth, she said: My Lord! Surely I have brought it forth a female-- and Allah knew best what she brought forth-- and the male is not like the female, and I have named it Marium, and I commend her and her offspring into Thy protection from the accursed Shaitan. 37. So her Lord accepted her with a good acceptance and made her grow up a good growing, and gave her into the charge of Zakariya; whenever Zakariya entered the sanctuary to (see) her, he found with her food. He said: O Marium! whence comes this to you? She said: It is from Allah. Surely Allah gives to whom He pleases without measure. 38. There did Zakariya pray to his Lord; he said: My Lord! grant me from Thee good offspring; surely Thou art the Hearer of prayer. 39. Then the angels called to him as he stood praying in the sanctuary: That Allah gives you the good news of Yahya verifying a Word from Allah, and honorable and chaste and a prophet from among the good ones. 40. He said: My Lord! when shall there be a son (born) to me, and old age has already come upon me, and my wife is barren? He said: even thus does Allah what He pleases. 41. He said: My Lord! appoint a sign for me. Said He: Your sign is that you should not speak to men for three days except by signs; and remember your Lord much and glorify Him in the evening and the morning. 42. And when the angels said: O Marium! surely Allah has chosen you and purified you and chosen you above the women of of the world. 43. O Marium! keep to obedience to your Lord and humble yourself, and bow down with those who bow. 44. This is of the announcements relating to the unseen which We reveal to you; and you were not with them when they cast their pens (to decide) which of them should have Marium in his charge, and you were not with them when they contended one with another. 45. When the angels said: O Marium, surely Allah gives you good news with a Word from Him (of one) whose name is the . Messiah, Isa son of Marium, worthy of regard in this world and the hereafter and of those who are made near (to Allah). 46. And he shall speak to the people when in the cradle and when of old age, and (he shall be) one of the good ones. 47. She said: My Lord! when shall there be a son (born) to I me, and man has not touched me? He said: Even so, Allah creates what He pleases; when He has decreed a matter, He only says to it, Be, and it is. 48. And He will teach him the Book and the wisdom and the Tavrat and the Injeel. 49. And (make him) an apostle to the children of Israel: That I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, that I determine for you out of dust like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird with Allahs permission and I heal the blind and the leprous, and bring the dead to life with Allahs permission and I inform you of what you should eat and what you should store in your houses; most surely there is a sign in this for you, if you are believers. 50. And a verifier of that which is before me of the Taurat and that I may allow you part of that which has been forbidden t you, and I have come to you with a sign from your Lord therefore be careful of (your duty to) Allah and obey me. 51. Surely Allah is my Lord and your Lord, therefore serve Him; this is the right path. 52. But when Isa perceived unbelief on their part, he said Who will be my helpers in Allahs way? The disciples said: We are helpers (in the way) of Allah: We believe in Allah and bear witness that we are submitting ones. 53. Our Lord! we believe in what Thou hast revealed and we follow the apostle, so write us down with those who bear witness. 54. And they planned and Allah (also) planned, and Allah is the best of planners. 55. And when Allah said: O Isa, I am going to terminate the period of your stay (on earth) and cause you to ascend unto Me and purify you of those who disbelieve and make those who follow you above those who disbelieve to the day of resurrection; then to Me shall be your return, so l will decide between you concerning that in which you differed.
