WOW....I did not even know they had cameras then.
I would like to ask you why is it illegal (often a capital offense) to tell about Jesus Christ in most Islamic countries? Truth has nothing to hide but it is wise for anyone with a Bible to hide it in Islamic countries.
Jesus said HE is the ONLY way to eternal life. There is no other name given whereby we must be saved.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Acts 4:12
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Do you really believe they had cameras back then. Perhaps they had great artists who had nothing better to do than paint Mary's portrait... and she had a lot of spare time to pose for it too. Don't you understand that "pictures" of Mary are renditions of an image in the artist's mind. On the other hand, are you telling me that you revere Mary, if she wears Muslim headdress, but not as a virgin mother of Jesus Christ. How can this be so? Either she is special as the virgin mother, prophesied by Isaiah to bear the Messiah, or she was just the mother of a man who was a prophet... in which case, you would not care what she wore and you would not puff up over IMPRESSIONS of her. Is there no core of truth, or rational thought left in radical, traitorous Islamists.

Um, right. And I've seen paintings of Jesus in contemporary 14th century Florentine fashions. Doesn't mean it's accurate. He probably didn't have long blonde hippie hair either - short hair was the custom at the time, and the Vikings hadn't gotten around to spreading their genes to the region yet. But you'll see it in paintings.
Fact is Mary, if she existed at all, lived and died six centuries before Muhammad, so unless she was afforded the power of time travel she couldn't possibly be Muslim.
I believe there's something in Scripture about false Prophets and those who seek to deceive the faithful in God's name...

before everything, Islam replaced into no longer even around until the seventh century. Christianity predates Islam by using lots. Judaism predates them the two. So, how the hell could Mary have worn some thing linked with Islam while there replaced into no Islam? the place is the PEACE?

First, the head covering is a middle eastern custom, not specifically muslim. Mary was Jewish.
Actually, we have no contemporary portraits of Mary, and the New Testament books are silent on the matter of her clothes. We only assume that she wore the traditional Hebrew garb.

Did you know that Islam is not an old religion... it is reletivly newer than Christianity or Judeism...
Sorry to deliver the facts but Marry was Jewish...
How Jewish was Jesus? 100%
Your Qur'an respects both of these people However it rejects Jews. I didn't make it up. Muhammad's words...
"Fight and slay the pagans( Christians, Jews, and non-Muslims) wherever you find them, and sieze them, beleagur them, and lier in wait for them in every strategem."-Surah 9:5, the Qur'an
"O you who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: they are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them ( for friendship) is of them( an infidel)."-Surah 5:51, the Qur'an
It is a Qur'an, I just read from it.
Here is what the Bible says....
Jesus taught not only to love your family and friends, but your enemies...
"Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you."-Matthew 5:44
Sounds a lot different from Islam, does it not?
I do not hate you... I just wanted to show you the truth about Islam...
God bless you and yours. And may He show you Christ.
In love and understanding, a Christian

Hahaha...paintings, not pictures!! :)
Anywho, as for her being Muslim, I can't agree with you!! Otherwise Jesus would've been Jewish, too!! And Islam only came waaaaaaaaaaay after Mary's time!! And also, what she wore was the fashion in those days!!

Peace

Utter rubbish. Nobody knows what Mary looked like. There are no contemporary pictures. These are just artists impressions.

Now tell how could Mary mother of Jesus be a follower of your false prophet, when she lived more than 500 years before Mohammad(the false prophet) was born and the fact she was Jewish.

The scarf was a product of it's time, it's not just an Islamic thing. There are better ways to get people's attention than by pissing them off, you know. They might respect you more, if you show them respect.
