You know the Blessed Virgin has her own book in the Qu’ran as well? I know that surprised me, a lot. She is literally the only woman mentioned by name, but she’s mentioned frequently.

There is something about the ideal of a pure and chaste and good woman that seems to resonate in people.

Islam refers to Jesus as the Son of Mary on numerous occasions. The Bible only refers to Jesus as the Son of Mary once, if i recall correctly.

Islam does so to limit the divinity of Jesus to one being born of a woman.

Recall in Islam, women are not held in high regard.
