What the Qur'an Says.. 

   And Allah has set forth and example to those who believe: The wife of Pharaoh, when she said: "My Lord! Build for me a home with You in Paradise, and save me from Pharaoh and his work, and save me from the people who do wrong." And Mary, the daughter of Imran who guarded her chastity. And We breathed into (the sleeve of her garment) through Our Ruh (Gabriel). and she testified to the truth of the Words of her Lord, and His Scriptures, and she was one of the devout servants. (Qur'an 66: 11,12). 

Commentary..

   The Bible states that women are foolish, wicked, undisciplined and without knowledge. It also says that no one upright woman was found among them all. On the contrary, the Qur'an orders all Muslims, men and women, to follow the shining examples of two perfect women, Mary the Mother of Jesus (pbuh) and Pharaoh's wife. These two ideal women were models of faith, righteousness, and patience for the sake of Allah.
