Maryam as Teacher

Maryam is not only a daughter and mother but also a teacher.  In the Qur'an, she teaches Zechariah/Zakariyya a lesson about spirituality which leads to an epiphany and his own prayer for children.  Maryam's model as a teacher inspires mystical and Sufi figures throughout history to teach about spirituality and to become closer to God.
