Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: Did a disagreement occur among the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) regarding Maryam, whether she was a prophet or not?

Answer:
No, no one has ever said that she was a prophet. There are no female prophets, but they are close friends (siddiqat). The rank of being a close friend comes after the prophets (peace and blessings be upon them).
