quran:3:42

And ˹mention˺ when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allah has chosen you and purified you and chosen you above the women of the worlds.  

And, mention, when the angels, namely, Gabriel, said, ‘O Mary, God has preferred you, He has elected you, and made you pure, of the touch of men; He has preferred you above all women of the worlds, that is, the inhabitants of your time.
القرآن:٣:٤٢

وَإِذْ قَالَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ يَا مَرْيَمُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفَاكِ وَطَهَّرَكِ وَاصْطَفَاكِ عَلَىٰ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ  

{و} اذكر {إذ قالت الملائكة} أي جبريل {يا مريم إن الله اصطفاك} اختارك {وطهرك} من مسيس الرجال {واصطفاك على نساء العالمين} أي أهل زمانك.
quran:3:43

O Mary, be devoutly obedient to your Lord and prostrate and bow with those who bow ˹in prayer˺."  

O Mary, be obedient to your Lord, be compliant before Him, prostrating and bowing with those who bow’, that is, pray with those who pray.
القرآن:٣:٤٣

يَا مَرْيَمُ اقْنُتِي لِرَبِّكِ وَاسْجُدِي وَارْكَعِي مَعَ الرَّاكِعِينَ  

{يا مريم اقنتي لربك} أطيعيه {واسجدي واركعي مع الراكعين} أي صلِّي مع المصلِّين.
quran:3:44

That is from the news of the unseen which We reveal to you, ˹O Muhammad˺. And you were not with them when they cast their pens as to which of them should be responsible for Mary. Nor were you with them when they disputed.  

That, which has been mentioned of the matter of Zachariah and Mary, is of the tidings of the Unseen, of the news of what was unknown to you. We reveal it to you, O Muhammad (s), for you were not with them, when they were casting quills, in the water, drawing their lots so that it be manifested to them, which of them should have charge of, ˹which of them should˺ bring up, Mary; nor were you with them, when they were disputing, about the custodianship of Mary, such that you might have known it and related it; but truly you know it only through revelation.
القرآن:٣:٤٤

ذَٰلِكَ مِنْ أَنْبَاءِ الْغَيْبِ نُوحِيهِ إِلَيْكَ ۚ وَمَا كُنْتَ لَدَيْهِمْ إِذْ يُلْقُونَ أَقْلَامَهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ يَكْفُلُ مَرْيَمَ وَمَا كُنْتَ لَدَيْهِمْ إِذْ يَخْتَصِمُونَ  

{ذلك} المذكور من أمر زكريا ومريم {من أنباء الغيب} أخبار ما غاب عنك {نوحيه إليك} يا محمد {وما كنت لديهم إذ يُلْقُون أقلامهم} في الماء يقترعون ليطهر لهم {أيهم يكْفُلُ} يربي {مريم وما كنت لديهم إذ يختصون} في كفالتها فتعرف ذلك فتخبر به وإنما عرفته من جهة الوحي.
