The Islamic Mary explores the figure of Mary/Maryamshared between Christians and Muslims. Maryam is revered throughout the Islamic tradition, beginning already in the scripture of the Qur'an. This book examines the varied appearances of Maryam in different Islamic contexts: extending from the mentions of Maryam in the Qur'an and the biography of the Prophet Muhammad, to her appearances in medieval theological debates regarding prophecy, to citations of her virtuous model in Sufi discussions of piety, to her depictions in Islamic art, and up to modern interfaith relations.

Younus Y. Mirza is the Founding Director of the Barzinji Institute for Global Virtual Learning at Shenandoah University. He has a Ph.D. in Arabic and Islamic Studies and has taught at Millsaps and Allegheny College. He is a co-author of the book The Bible and the Qur'an: Biblical Figures in the Islamic Tradition.
