When she was delivered, she said: "O my Lord! Behold! I am delivered of a female child!"- and Allah knew best what she brought forth- "And no wise is the male Like the female. I have named her Mary, and I commend her and her offspring to Thy protection from the Evil One, the Rejected."

当她生了一个女孩的时候，她说：“我确已生了一个女孩。”真主是知道她所生的孩子的。男孩不象女孩一样。”我确已把她叫做麦尔彦，求你保佑她和她的后裔，免受被弃绝的恶魔的搔扰。”
