The answer

The exegetes mentioned that the insufflation was into Mary's garment, entering her body, and thus she conceived Jesus. Some said it was into her mouth. The insufflation from angels differs from the nature of human desire, resembling the blowing of the soul into all other human beings, as Allah Almighty said: "Then He proportioned him and breathed into him from His [created] soul." And as narrated in the Hadith of Ibn Mas'ud regarding the stages of human creation and the blowing of the soul into him.
