And make mention of Mary in the Scripture. When she had withdrawn from
her people to a chamber looking East-

So she had chosen seclusion from them. Then We sent unto her Our
Spirit and it assumed for her the likeness of a perfect man.

Commentary
‘In-tabazat – {(she) withdrew
(from), was separated}, it is past tense from the word ‘intibaazun,
which means “to be separated (from), to live alone”.
Ruuhun – (an Angel), it aims “the Angel
named Gabriel (peace be upon him)” who performs important works assigned by
Allah Almighty. The Angels (peace be upon them) do not have any kind of
physical/sexual desire. So they are called “the Spirit”.
Sawiyyun – (perfect,
complete), this word has passed earlier. Here it aims “whole, perfect and
sound, without any deficiency”. The Angels meet with mankind in the same form
i.e. as a perfect man.
Mention of Mary (peace be upon her)
has passed before it in Surah ‘Aali ‘Imraan (Chapter “the Children of Imran”).
Her work was naught but worship of Allah almighty only, because her mother had
made a vow. According to custom of those days, she used to remain engaged in
the remembrance of Allah almighty with effect from her childhood. When she
became young then she was embodied picture of chastity and modesty. She became
pregnant by the Command of Allah Almighty without touching by any male mankind
and on completion of prescribed period; Jesus (peace be upon him) was born from
her womb. Mention of Mary (peace be upon her) is necessary in this Scripture,
so that the people may be saved from misunderstanding. After being adult, Mary (peace
be upon her) went into a separate abode from other people for taking bath, and
she drew the curtain between other members of her family. At that time, Angel Gabriel
(peace be upon him) appeared before her in perfect human form, who was sent by
Allah Almighty.
