The Islamic Mary
The Question - Verse 20 of the Chapter of Mary (Surat Maryam)
When Maryam hears the news that she will have a child, she immediately asks a question: "How can I have a child when no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste?" Here question represents a theme in Qur'anic and Biblical figures asking about the divine decree. It also brings up the issue of shame and social stigma.
