Chapter 19, Page 306, Juz 16

16. And mention in the Book (the story of) Maryam, when she secluded herself from her people to a place towards East, 17. then she used a barrier to hide herself from them. Then, We sent to her Our Spirit, (Jibra’īl) and he took before her the form of a perfect human being. 18. She said, “I seek refuge with the All-Merciful (Allah) against you, if you are God-fearing.” 19. He said, “I am but a message-bearer of your Lord (sent) to give you a boy, purified.” 20. She said, “How shall I have a boy while no human has ever touched me, nor have I ever been unchaste?” 21. He said, “So it is; your Lord said, ‘It is easy for Me, and (We will do this) so that We make it a sign for people and a mercy from Us, and this is a matter already destined.’” 22. So she conceived him, and went in seclusion with him to a remote place. 23. Then the labour pains brought her to the trunk of a palm-tree. She said “O that I would have died before this, and would have been something gone, forgotten.” 24. Then he called her from beneath her: “Do not grieve; your Lord has placed a stream beneath you. 25. Shake the trunk of the palm-tree towards yourself and, it will drop upon you ripe fresh dates. 26. So eat, drink and cool your eyes. Then if you see any human being, say (to him), “I have vowed a fast (of silence) for the All-Merciful (Allah,) and therefore, I shall never speak to any human today.”
