Mary the mother of Jesus is called sister of Aaron in sura 19:{{Quote|{{Quran-range|19|27|34}}|Then '''she brought him to her own folk,''' carrying him. '''They said: O Mary!''' Thou hast come with an amazing thing.
Mary the mother of Jesus is called sister of Aaron in sura 19:{{Quote|{{Quran-range|19|27|34}}|'''Then she brought him to her people''', carrying him. They said, "O Mary, you have certainly done a thing unprecedented.


(19:28) '''O sister of Aaron!''' Thy father was not a wicked man nor was thy mother a harlot.
'''O sister of Aaron''', your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste."


'''Then she pointed to him.''' They said: How can we talk to one who is in the cradle, a young boy?
'''So she pointed to him.''' They said, "How can we speak to one who is in the cradle a child?"


'''He spake: Lo! I am the slave of Allah.''' He hath given me the Scripture and hath appointed me a Prophet,
'''[Jesus] said, "Indeed, I am the servant of Allah.''' He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet.


And hath made me blessed wheresoever I may be, and hath enjoined upon me prayer and almsgiving so long as I remain alive,
And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakah as long as I remain alive


And (hath made me) dutiful toward her who bore me, and hath not made me arrogant, unblest.
And [made me] dutiful to my mother, and He has not made me a wretched tyrant.


Peace on me the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I shall be raised alive!
And peace is on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I am raised alive."
 
'''That is Jesus, the son of Mary''' - the word of truth about which they are in dispute.


'''Such was Jesus, son of Mary:''' (this is) a statement of the truth concerning which they doubt.

The Qur'an also says the wife of Imran gave birth to the virgin Mary who gave birth to Jesus. "Wife of 'Imran" is here im'ra-atu ʿim'rāna, literally woman of Imran, though the same construction certainly means "wife" a few verses later (Quran 3:40), and in several other verses.
The Qur'an calls Mary the daughter of Imran{{Quote|{{Quran|66|12}}|And '''Mary, daughter of 'Imran, whose body was chaste, therefor We breathed therein something of Our Spirit.''' And she put faith in the words of her Lord and His scriptures, and was of the obedient.
 
{{Quote|{{Quran-range|3|35|45}}|(Remember) when '''the wife of 'Imran said''': My Lord! I have vowed unto Thee '''that which is in my belly''' as a consecrated (offering). Accept it from me. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Hearer, the Knower!
 
And when she was delivered she said: My Lord! Lo! I am delivered of a female - Allah knew best of what she was delivered - the male is not as the female; and lo! '''I have named her Mary,''' and lo! I crave Thy protection for her and for her offspring from Satan the outcast.


And her Lord accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to her a goodly growth; and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah went into the sanctuary where she was, he found that she had food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee this (food)? She answered: It is from Allah. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will.
