Transliteration:( Wa iz qaalatil malaaa'ikatu yaa Maryamu innal laahas tafaaki wa tahharaki wastafaaki 'alaa nisaaa'il 'aalameen )
93. Thus, Sayeda Mariam was the most honoured lady, of her time, but now Hazrat Fatima (May Allah be pleased with her) and the beloved (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) Holy Prophet's wives are the most honoured ladies. Says Allah Almighty: "O wives of the Prophet! you are not like other women" (S33:V32). Hazrat Mariam's (May Allah be pleased with her) was the caretaker of Masjid-e-Aqsa and pure from all sins. She was the devoted worshipper of Allah Almighty. It should be remembered that this conversation of the angels was not a revelation of preaching because this type of revelation is connected with a Prophet only, while no lady has been elevated to prophethood
94. This has been done by letting you be from the children of the pious and in spite of being a woman, you have been selected to be a caretaker of the Baitul Muqaddas, although this was the work of the males only, made Hazrat Zakariya (On whom be peace) your guardian, nourished you with heavenly fruit and later destined you to become the mother of the Spirit of Allah Almighty, Hazrat Isa (On whom be peace) and thus, made well known in all circles.
