Many Islamic scholars suggest turning to Surah Maryam (Chapter 19 of the Qur’an) for prayers related to conception and safe pregnancy, inspired by the story of Maryam (Mary) and the miraculous birth of Prophet `Isa (Jesus, peace be upon him).

وَاذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتَابِ مَرْيَمَ إِذِ انتَبَذَتْ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا مَكَانًا شَرْقِيًّا

فَاتَّخَذَتْ مِنْ دُونِهِمْ حِجَابًا فَأَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْهَا رُوحَنَا فَتَمَثَّلَ لَهَا بَشَرًا سَوِيًّا
