Obviously it was a miracle. My point though is that Islam has no other reason why this prophet should be born different than other prophets. In having a virgin birth, it sort of makes Jesus (in a non-Muslim’s eyes), just a little more special than the prophet Muhammad. I would for instance have rather expected the prophet Muhammad to be born of a virgin because he was the last prophet which dictated the Alpha and Omega of scriptures, the Qur’an, according to Islam.

different prophets had different miracles…

does saving Noah (as) on a boat and drowning thos who disbelieved in him make him better than Muhammad (saw) because those who disbelieved in Muhammad (saw) were not drowned???

or does giving Solomon (as) the kindgom of the whole world and giving him riches and armies make him better than Muhammad (saw) because Muhammad (saw) led more than half of his prophetic life in a depressed condition with a city full of enemies (sometimes even in boycott) and then almost the rest of his life in exile from his own city???

no, those r different signs…

Quran 2:253
*Of those messengers, some of whom We have caused to excel others, and of whom there are some unto whom Allah spake, while some of them He exalted (above others) in degree; and We gave Jesus, son of Mary, clear proofs (of Allah’s Sovereignty) and We supported him with the holy Spirit. And if Allah had so wiled it, those who followed after them would not have fought one with another after the clear proofs had come unto them. But they differed, some of them believing and some disbelieving… *
