Sarah[a] (originally Sarai)[b] is a biblical matriarch, prophet, and major figure in Abrahamic religions. While different Abrahamic faiths portray her differently, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all depict her character similarly, as that of a pious woman, renowned for her hospitality and beauty, the wife of Abraham, and the mother of Isaac. Sarah has her feast day on 1 September in the Catholic Church,[1] 19 August in the Coptic Orthodox Church,[2] 20 January in the LCMS,[3] and 12 and 20 December in the Eastern Orthodox Church.[4]
