Mary the mother of Jesus is considered one of the most righteous woman in Islamic tradition. Mary is mentioned more in the Quran the whole new testament. She is the only woman mentioned by name in the Quran. Mary is seen in Islam as the greatest woman of all times. The Quran stated that Jesus(Isa) was the result of 'virgin birth'. The Quran also confirmed her Immaculate conception; her being pure, free from sin. "Behold! The angel said: 'O Mary! Allah hath chosen thee and PURIFIED the'- chosen thee above the women of all nations".-Quran, Sura 3(Al Imran), ayah 42. The nineteenth chapter of the Quran is named after Mary. In Sura 19(Maryam), ayah 20, Mary asks Gabriel how she will be able to conceive when no man has touched her. She was told that all things are possible with God. In sura 66(At-Tahrim), ayah 12, the Quran states that Mary remained PURE while God allowed a life to shape itself in her womb. Muslim women look upon her as an example and are known to visit both muslim and christian shrines of Mary. A bath in Jerusalem used by Mary is now visited by barren women. Some plants acquired sweet smell when touched by Mary e.g Maryammiah and Kaff Maryam. Mary's Titles: Mary is honoured with the following titles in Islam. -siddiqah: she who confirms the truth or she who has faith. -sajidah: she who prostrates to God in worship. -Tahirah: she who was purified. -Mustapha: she who was chosen. -Sa'imah: she who fasts. -Raki'ah: she who bows down to God in worship. -Qanitah: One with constant submission to God, absorbed in prayer and invocation. The Quran and the Bible seem to agree on Marian theology. Therefore, let us give honour to whom it is due. |

Doubt all things, but with the intention of establishing the truth. |
I chose to do my youth service in Akwa Ibom because of all i heard. I was told that Akpabio takes good care of corpers, that he pays 15k and that he pays double that amount in december. What i saw was totally dissapointing. Our allowie was not coming regularly, even now that i have passed out, i am been owed for 5 months. |
