Mary (pbuh) in the Quran.
The Quran glorified Mary in the most beautiful of ways falsifying what was said
about her from the slander of the Jews.
Allah vindicated her:
- Right graciously did her Lord accept her: He made her grow in purity and
beauty: To the care of Zakariya was she assigned. Every time that he entered (Her)
chamber to see her, He found her supplied with sustenance. He said: "O Mary!
Whence (comes) this to you?" She said: "From Allah. for Allah Provides sustenance
to whom He pleases without measure."
[Quran, the Family of Imraan Verse 37]
What is there more honor in than being graciously accepted by the Lord, and that he
nurtured her and fed here from where she knew not.
Islam further defended Mary saying that Allah sent her the glad tiding of a child.
- She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?" He
said: "Even so: Allah createth what He willeth: When He hath decreed a plan, He but
saith to it, 'Be,' and it is!
