“Quite pathetic.”
“The quran was conjured in the 7th century. Christianity belief of the Trinity was already stabilized at this time. Nobody was talking about Mary being part of the Trinity”
And nowhere does Qur’an state she was part of the Trinity.
Quite pathetic of you that you would try to misread The Qur’an for your own interpretation rather than reflect on it unbiasedly.
“nor she was the object fo worship.”
Maybe not, but just because she might not have been an object of worship then in the 7th century, she certainly did become an object of worship in the largest denomination of Christianity, the Roman Catholic Church.
God knew this would happen so He mentioned it in The Qur’an.
This is actually a testimony to the truthfulness of Qur’an in a way.
Historically speaking, Muhammad(saw) could not have “gotten this teaching from Christians around him” because the Christians in Arabia were Nestorians who followed Nestorius who was excommunicated at the Council of Ephesus for rejecting the term “Mother of God.” They were also accused of calling Christ to be 2 persons, not 1. Although modern day Nestorians would deny this, the point is that the Christians that Muhammad(saw) would have been around had a strong emphasis on the humanity of Christ and NOT deifying his mother. That was Nestorius’s main concern that got him kicked out.
“The headquarters of the Church, Selucia-Ctesphon, was at a strategic place on both banks of the River Tigris, the center of travel between Europe and Asia. By the middle of the sixth century, the Church had spread into Egypt, Syria,
Arabia, Mesopotamia, Persia, India, Ceylon, China, and Mongolia.”

“Sorry but Protestantism had not existed yet at that time.”
So what? Protestants still believe that Catholics worship Mary. If someone who you believe to be a Christian, although heretical and you call them “separated brethren” can hold such a position, why is it so unreasonable to you that someone Non-Christian would hold it?
In other words, if other people who are not Muslim, have no reason to be favorable to Islam, can come to the conclusion that Catholics are engaging in acts of worship, why is it wrong for Qur’an to point this out, whether you yourself believe you are worshipping her or not, is irrelevant.
