==="The Qur'an refers to Imran as the ancestor of Mary"===
Here the Muslim apologists claim that Mary is the ancestor of Imran, and more specific, his son Aaron.
[[proof of scholarly claim(s) needed]] on to-do list
Refutation:
This Islamic argument seems to be refuted by {{Quran-range|3|35|36}} which, as seen above, makes it clear that the wife of Imran had a daughter named Mary, seemingly erasing the possibility of her being a far descendant of Imran.
Also, just a few verses down the line, this same Mary bears a child of her own, called Jesus, the Messiah, according to the Quran:
{{Quote|{{Quran|3|45}}|(And remember) when the angels said: O Mary! Lo! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a word from him, whose name is the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, illustrious in the world and the Hereafter, and one of those brought near (unto Allah).}}
