The word(s) "barren" appears 8 time(s) in 8 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Pickthal translation.

(1) He said: My Lord! How can I have a son when age hath overtaken me already and my wife is barren? (The angel) answered: So (it will be). Allah doeth what He will.

(2) And lo! We shall make all that is thereon a barren mound.

(3) Lo! I fear my kinsfolk after me, since my wife is barren. Oh, give me from Thy presence a successor

(4) He said: My Lord! How can I have a son when my wife is barren and I have reached infirm old age?

(5) O mankind! if ye are in doubt concerning the Resurrection, then lo! We have created you from dust, then from a drop of seed, then from a clot, then from a little lump of flesh shapely and shapeless, that We may make (it) clear for you. And We cause what We will to remain in the wombs for an appointed time, and afterward We bring you forth as infants, then (give you growth) that ye attain your full strength. And among you there is he who dieth (young), and among you there is he who is brought back to the most abject time of life, so that, after knowledge, he knoweth naught. And thou (Muhammad) seest the earth barren, but when We send down water thereon, it doth thrill and swell and put forth every lovely kind (of growth).

(6) Have they not seen how We lead the water to the barren land and therewith bring forth crops whereof their cattle eat, and they themselves? Will they not then see?

(7) Or He mingleth them, males and females, and He maketh barren whom He will. Lo! He is Knower, Powerful.

(8) Then his wife came forward, making moan, and smote her face, and cried: A barren old woman!
