Was Maria a Concubine? | Concubines in Islam series, Part 9 | Dr. Shabir Ally

Dr. Shabir Ally earlier provided evidence showing that Maria could have been married to the Prophet Muhammad. Now he deconstructs counterarguments demonstrating that Maria was a concubine. He cautions that Maria isn't mentioned in the Quran. He sifts through hadith narratives that say that Maria was enslaved, gave birth to a child and was freed after the Prophet Muhammad died, and he discusses manufactured memories and the need for precedents in the development of Islamic law.
