3:36

Salaam all,

This is 3:36
فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْهَا قَالَتْ رَبِّ إِنِّي وَضَعْتُهَا أُنثَى وَاللّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا وَضَعَتْ وَلَيْسَ الذَّكَرُ كَالأُنثَى وَإِنِّي سَمَّيْتُهَا مَرْيَمَ وِإِنِّي أُعِيذُهَا بِكَ وَذُرِّيَّتَهَا مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
Falamma wadaAAatha qalat rabbi innee wadaAAtuha ontha waAllahu aAAlamu bima wadaAAat walaysa alththakaru kaalontha wainnee sammaytuha maryama wainnee oAAeethuha bika wathurriyyataha mina alshshaytani alrrajeemi

The Aya says:
So, when she gave birth to her, she said: My Nurturing Lord, I gave birth to her, a female, while Allah (is) more knowledgeable of what she delivered, and the male (is) not like the female, and I named her Maryam/Mary, and I make her and her offspring sheltered by You from the Satan, the pushed away (from Your mercy).

My personal note:
Here, it continues the story of the birth of Mary. Her mother mentioned that she was born female. Then God interjects that God is more knowledgeable in what was delivered. Mary’s mother continues that females and males are not alike, and then continues her prayer to protect her daughter and the daughter’s offspring from Satan.
