The term The Greater Mary seems to be sometimes used within Islam in connection with Fatimah, the daughter of Muhammad.
The Greater Mary is known as the "Mary of Islam" by many as the equivilent to Mary of Bethlehem because of her moral purity and her position as the Virgin of Islam; seen by some as the mystical "Light" of Muhammed as is seen in the name Fatimah al-Zahra or "Daughter of Light". Because Allah calls Himself the "Light of the Heavens and the Earth" Fatimah stand as the "Daughter of Allah"; she produces the Mahdi by Allah coming to her as her husband Ali in His Mercy to provide her with the child she lost in her miscarriage in "the Miscarriage of Justice" that it was; so He avenged her; personally.
