Imran (عمران) in Islam is presented as the father of Moses and Aron and "Maryam" who gave birth to Jesus.
Family of Imran
The third (in traditional order) sura is called آل عمران (aal imraan, "the family of Imraan"). Verse 3:33 says that the family of Imran was chosen by Allah:
Indeed, Allah chose Adam and Noah and the family of Abraham and the family of 'Imran over the worlds -
Allah chose:
- Adam
- Noah
- Family of Abraham
- Family of Imran
But what is the family of Imran?
Imran is the father of Maryam, the mother of Jesus
The sura "Family of Imran" contains a story of Imran's wife giving birth to Mary, the mother of Jesus:
3:35 [Mention, O Muhammad], when the wife of 'Imran said, "My Lord, indeed I have pledged to You what is in my womb, consecrated [for Your service], so accept this from me. Indeed, You are the Hearing, the Knowing."
3:36 But when she delivered her, she said, "My Lord, I have delivered a female." And Allah was most knowing of what she delivered, "And the male is not like the female. And I have named her Mary, and I seek refuge for her in You and [for] her descendants from Satan, the expelled [from the mercy of Allah ]."
...
3:45 [And mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allah gives you good tidings of a word from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary - distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near [to Allah ].
It's also in 66:12:
And [the example of] Mary, the daughter of 'Imran, who guarded her chastity, so We blew into [her garment] through Our angel, and she believed in the words of her Lord and His scriptures and was of the devoutly obedient.
Imran is the father of Moses and Aron
This was confirmed to Muhammad by Allah himself:
The term Aron, the son of Imran (هارون بن عمران) was also mentioned in tafsir Ibn Kathir, but only in the non-abridged Arabic version. [2]
