In this groundbreaking study, Muna Tatari and Klaus von Stosch painstakingly reconstruct the picture of Mary that is presented in the Qur'an and show how veneration of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the Roman Catholic Church intersects and interacts with
the testimony of the Qur'an.
An entire chapter (surah) of the Qur'an bears her name. She is the only woman mentioned by
name in the Qur'an-indeed, her name appears more frequently than that of either Muhammad or
Jesus. From the earliest times to the present day, Mary has continued to be held in high regard by
Christians and Muslims alike. And yet Mary has also been the cause of much rancour and tension
between these two world religions. In this groundbreaking study, Muna Tatari and Klaus von
Stosch painstakingly reconstruct the picture of Mary that is presented in the Qur'an and show how
veneration of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the Roman Catholic Church intersects and interacts with
the testimony of the Qur'an. Their sensitive and scholarly treatise is an important contribution to
constructive interfaith dialogue in the 21st century.
