Creation of Mary, Mother ofJesus, as a Miracle in the Qur’an

Abstract

As is well know the birth of Jesus from the virgin Mary is one of the issues which we have been satisfied with eitherthe traditional interpretations or oversimplification of the role of Mary in this event. By doing so, those who have been interested in this issue have related the virgin birth to Jesus by regarding it as a miracle for Jesus and thus underestimated the role of Mary. Because of this traditional understanding either we have difficulty to understand why the Arabic male pronoun “hû/hî” is used for Mary in chapter 66 verse 12 or we have always avoided to question of this usage.While examining deeply in this verse and thinking about how Mary became pregnant to Jesus without any human father we have come across that there were a special system in Mary’s genital organ, produces both ovule and sperm. By taking this information into account we need to examine chapter 66 verse 12 and other verses concerning Mary in order to highlight how Mary became pregnant to Jesus without human father. By doing this we believe that we will bring satisfactory explanation to why both male and female pronouns are used in chapter 66 verse 12 for Mary.
