Jesus was reported to have been born of a miraculous virgin birth without a father. His mother, Mary, was a pious woman who has a chapter in the Qur’an named after her. Islam affirms the fatherless birth of Jesus and rejects outright the opposing claim that his birth was illegitimate.
Whereas, Islam recognizes the virgin birth of Jesus as a miraculous event, it does not consider it unnatural; the laws of nature are never broken. Numerous scientists have explained virgin births.
In Islam, the immaculate conception of Jesus is not interpreted to mean that he was in some way a Divine Being. He was still a human being.
