总结:Maryam’s call in verse 19:23 has often been overlooked in Qur'anic scholarship or associated with shame and dishonor. In this view, Maryam was ashamed of having a child out of wedlock and the potential dishonor she would cause her family and community. However, this article argues that Maryam’s call should rather be seen as part of a larger Qur'anic theme of vulnerability, whether it be regarding labor pains, cries for help, and the struggles of the early Muslim community. Maryam’s call helps us better understand emotions and vulnerability in the Qur'an and how they manifested themselves in the life of the Prophet Muhammad and the early Muslim community.
