In the Quran, it mentions that Christians believe in a Trinity of God, Mary and Jesus. Was there an early sect that worshipped Mary as synonymous with the Holy Spirit? Or is it an ironic reference to Marian devotion?

Sorry, I can't remember the quote; if I possess/quote from any other book than a Bible, my family gets on my back. So I tend to avoid trouble.

sayeed? I think you have answered the wrong question by mistake, I didn't claim that....

The Holy Spirit inclusion into the Trinity is quite recent.
It was Mary from the early times of what we call Catholism......... the first Church.
Mary the mother of GOD.
Mother, Father and Son.

No trinity at all in house of Islaam, very clear in Al-Qur'aan....
[18:4] And to warn those who said, "GOD has begotten a son!"
[18:5] They possess no knowledge about this, nor did their parents. What a blasphemy coming out of their mouths! What they utter is a gross lie.
[18:6] You may blame yourself on account of their response to this narration, and their disbelieving in it; you may be saddened.
[19:88] They said, "The Most Gracious has begotten a son"!
[19:89] You have uttered a gross blasphemy.
[19:90] The heavens are about to shatter, the earth is about to tear asunder, and the mountains are about to crumble.
[19:91] Because they claim that the Most Gracious has begotten a son.
[19:92] It is not befitting the Most Gracious that He should beget a son.
[19:93] Every single one in the heavens and the earth is a servant of the Most Gracious.
This is clear massage from Lord of world

Dear friend,
I noticed the same thing in the koran.My wife is a devout muslem.We have been married 27 years and I am a Christian.The Koran came into being about 630 a.d.The Bible especially the N.T. was completed as canon in 397 a.d.The Bible and the Koran can not both be the word of God.If you take Bible stories and Bible names out off the Koran you have little left.The Bible came first and does not depend on the Koran.The Bible teaches Father,Son and Holy Spirit.Mary was the mother of Jesus in His humanity.She never was or is the mother of God.

'In the Quran Muhhamed ALWAYS refers to Allah as "We". He thought he was part of Allah and was making decisions with him.'
Are you familiar with the way the English language used in the past? Kings used to refer to themselves as "We". Does that mean that all Kings had Multiple Personality Disorder?
"We" is a term used to ascend the meaning of the word "I" in the Quran. SInce there is no direct translation from the Arabic word, "we" is used. Please don't take everything so literally.
EDIT: I was referring to the guy-above-me's statement :)
Hah, I should've answered your question properly, I got caught up, sorry:
As far as I'm aware, it was a Catholic belief that Mary was of the Trinity. This has changed now, but I suppose it could've been an ironic reference to Marian devotion.

The trinity is God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Mary was the mother of Jesus but not part of the Trinity. She was a woman blessed by God and no more.

Well i dont fully understand whats your question
First of all i would like to say that in Islam there is NO trinity at all!
The Ex Muslimah has tried to say Man Lat Uzza and gave reference from a Surah of Quran. I think just like any ordinary christan she likes to delude people
Man Latt and Uzza were Idols which Quran condems!!
Islam is against Trinity
We believe Jesus was a messenger like Moses and Muhammad (peace be upon them all)
Even if u read Gospel of Peter he didnt believe in Trinity

Please provide the actual quote.
EDIT:
If you are going to refer to Quran, you should have the exact quote; otherwise you may be asking a question which is based on a faulty premise or a red herring.

I'm not sure. But it is interesting that the Islamic view of Christianity is from Catholicism.

That is not Monotheism.
I am familiar with the English language, it says the equivalent of "We" in Arabic not "He" every single time.
