Mary, the humble mother of Jesus, is a model of faith, humility, and virtue – both in the Bible, and in the Quran, the holy book of Muslims.
In this video, Dr. Zahra Jamal (Founder and CEO of The Inclusion Expert, a minority woman-owned diversity consultancy supporting religious, racial, and gender diversity, with expertise in Muslim diversity) explains:

2) What Dr. Zahra believe compassion means in Islam (drawing on Ibn ‘Arabi) ;
3) What we can learn from key moments in Mary’s life, as recounted in the Quran, and why God describes her as “chosen among all women of the worlds”, “a sign for humanity”, and “a model” of patience, humility, compassion, faith, and justice; and
4) The relevance of Mary among Muslims today.
