(Harun Yahya)
We have instructed man to be good
to his parents. His mother bore him with
difficulty and with difficulty gave birth
to him; and his bearing and weaning
take thirty months. Then when he
achieves his full strength and reaches
forty, he says, "My Lord, keep me
thankful for the blessing You
bestowed on me and on my par-
ents, and keep me acting rightly,
pleasing You. And make my
descendants righteous. I have
repented to You and I am truly one
of the Muslims." (Qur'an, 46:15)
Mary (pbuh) became
pregnant by the will of God
and was patient in the face of all
the difficulties she encountered
during that pregnancy; because
of that fortitude and her devo-
tion to God she has been made
superior to all the women of
the world:
And when the angels said,
"Mary, God has chosen you
and purified you. He has
chosen you over all other
women." (Qur'an, 3:42)
