Mary in Islam part 4

The childhood of Mary 2
Here, we can immediately see a similarity between this narration and the Christian theory ofthe “Immaculate Conception” of Mary and Jesus, although there is a great difference between the two. lslam does not propagate the theory of ‘original sin’, and therefore does not condone this interpretation of how they were free from the touch of Satan, but rather that this was a grace given by God to Mary and her son Jesus. As other prophets, Jesus was protected from committing grave sins. As for Mary, even if we take the position that she was not a prophetess, she nevertheless received the protection and guidance of God which He grants the pious believers.
“So her Lord accepted her with gracious acceptance, and reared her in purity and beauty, and entrusted her to the care of Zachary.”
(Quran 3:37)
Upon the birth of Mary, her mother Hannah took her to Bait-ulMaqdis and offered her to those in the mosque to grow under their tutelage. Knowing the nobility and piety of their family, they quarreled as to who would have the honor to rear her. They agreed to cast lots, and it was none other than the prophet Zachary who was chosen. It was under his care and tutelage which she was reared.
