Commentary — Tafsīr al-Jalālayn
Mention when the wife of ‘Imrān Hanna said after she had reached old age and longed for a child and supplicated to God and sensed that she was carrying child ‘O Lord I have vowed to offer You what is within my womb as a consecration one liberated and delivered from the distractions of this world for the service of Your Holy House in Jerusalem. Accept this from me. Lo! It is You Who are the Hearer of petition the Knower of intentions. ‘Imrān died while she was still pregnant.
