The Story of Maryam Alaihissalaams Birth (Mother of Prophet Issa Alaihissalaam): Surah AL-IMRAN, verses 35-36 (35. (Remember) when the wife of `Imran said: O my Lord! I have vowed to You what is in my womb to be dedicated for Your services, so accept this from me. Verily, You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knowing.) (36. Then when she gave birth to her, she said: O my Lord! I have given birth to a female child, ـ and Allah knew better what she bore, ـ And the male is not like the female, and I have named her Maryam, and I seek refuge with You for her and for her offspring from Shaytan, the outcast.) The wife of `Imran mentioned here is the mother of Maryam Alaihissalaam, and her name is Hannah bint Faqudh. Muhammad bin Ishaq mentioned that Hannah could not have children and that one day, she saw a bird feeding its chick. She wished she could have children and supplicated to Allah to grant her offspring. Allah accepted her supplication, and when her husband slept with her, she became pregnant. She vowed to make her child concentrate on worship and serving Bayt Al-Maqdis (the Masjid in Jerusalem), when she became aware that she was pregnant. She said, (O my Lord! I have vowed to You what is in my womb to be dedicated for Your services, so accept this from me. Verily, You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knowing.) meaning, You hear my supplication and You know my intention. She did not know then what she would give birth to, a male or a female. (Then when she gave birth to her, she said: O my Lord! I have given birth to a female child, ـ and Allah knew better what she bore.) (And the male is not like the female,) in strength and the commitment to worship Allah and serve the Masjid in Jerusalem. (And I have named her Maryam,) thus, testifying to the fact that it is allowed to give a name to the newly born the day it is born, as is apparent from the Ayah, which is also a part of the law of those who were before us. Further, the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah mentioned that the Prophet Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam said, (This night, a son was born for me and I called him by my fathers name, Ibrahim.) Al-Bukhari and Muslim collected this Hadith. Allahs statement that Maryam Alaihissalaams mother said, (...And I seek refuge with You for her and for her offspring from Shaytan, the outcast.) means, that she sought refuge with Allah from the evil of Shaytan, for her and her offspring, i.e., `Isa, peace be upon him. Allah accepted her supplication, for `Abdur-Razzaq recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of Allah Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam said, (Every newly born baby is touched by Shaytan when it is born, and the baby starts crying because of this touch, except Maryam and her son.) Abu Hurayrah then said, Read if you will, (And I seek refuge with You for her and for her offspring from Shaytan, the outcast). The Two Sahihs recorded this Hadith. Dua from this story to seek Allahs Protection for your daughter and grandchildren: And I seek refuge with You (Allah) for her and for her offspring from Shaitan (Satan), the outcast.
