I have a question - what is the Islamic view of Rebecca? -

Here's the Wikipedia on her but seems to reference Jewish/Biblical sources. How do we acknowledge the 3 Matriarchs of Ibrahim (peace be upon him) in Islam?
How?
Good question.
How many women are mentioned by name in the Qur'an?
Only one.
Mariam, the mother of Isa Alaihis salaam.
Rebecca has no bearing on your ability to arrive at the truth of Allah and His prophet Muhammad pbuh.
Rebecca was the wife of Isaac Alaihis salaam, and the mother of Jacob Alaihis salaam.
Does the mother of Musa Alaihis salaam get a mention in the Qur'an?
Does the mother of Muhammad pbuh get a mention in the Qur'an?
And because they were not mentioned, does it mean they did not exist?
Of course it doesn't.
Hope this opens up a train of thought for you in sha Allah
