THE BIRTH OF JESUS AS TAUGHT BY THE QURAN AND THE TEACHINGS OF THE GOSPELS
Introduction here.
It is clear that the birth of Christ is a misnomer in regard to it being a virgin birth. The data from the gospels is scant and in the Gospel of John it is clear that he is descended from a man like any other human being. I’ll bring this into clarity from the Quran and from other hadith literature that may be useful in elucidating the verses of the Quran regarding his birth and demise.
In the New Testament it is mentioned many times that Jesus is a son of man. In Luke and Matthew he being an evolved entity through the de novo impregnation of Mary through the Holy Spirit appears to be a fallacy of communication somewhere. There is no basis to presume a virgin birth and the data appears to have arisen out of the pagan custom of ascribing godhead to men through the impregnation of virgins by gods of the Greek mythology. During the lifetime of Jesus there in Palestine there was very little mention of this method of childbirth for him and it appears scholars like Paul promulgated these views to further the cause of bringing his Godhead into the consciousness of people of their times.
Nature of man.
It is clear from the Quran and from Biblical sources that all mankind is created from the fusion of an egg and a sperm. The Arabic word for this is nutfah which is translated as ejaculate or spermatozoa and egg, either from a man or from a woman. Also, it is obvious that Jesus was a man-like entity and therefore has an XY chromosome which goes against nature if he was created through parthenogenesis from a woman who only has an XX chromosome set. There is no reason to suppose that God would change his laws of nature for the sake of one prophet-like entity while He created the whole of mankind according to the laws that he has placed here on earth for procreation.
Please understand that we cannot assimilate a male child from a woman without a father. I have placed some of my comments on this matter here and will allow you to assimilate the view as well. I am sane that one knows that God can do anything He wishes however the words of the Quran contradict the celestial nature of the origin of the Y chromosome as He says there that Jesus was created like Adam, out of dust, meaning that he was born of a sperm and an egg as these are earth materials and not celestial as it says there in hadith they have that Gabriel impregnated her, it could not be so if he was created out of dust as the spirit is just that. I wish the reader to assimilate the view from a scientific viewpoint and then understand that his male characteristics were given to him in a normal way or fashion.
Facebook comment here is as follows.
Please know the birth of Jesus is a misnomer in Islam. He was created as a natural conception. In this there is certainty in that the child is born of a male and female zygote and the Y chromosome is delivered to the child from the father giving it male characteristics, which our savior Jesus had.
Please know without a father he would not have been a male.
Please understand that the chromosome is made out of dust, as we all are, and it is in the Quran that Jesus was made out of dust like Adam was. In this way we know his Y chromosome was not celestial.
Please know that Mary had other children as well.
Please know that a woman cannot create out of parthenogenesis a male child as she does not possess a Y chromosome. Omar.
See the nutfah law for man is inherent in sanity we have.
Please see nutfah law is intact as no exception is made in the Quran or elsewhere, where the Prophet said we are nature only.
A post has been attached which was placed on my Facebook page here. It only delineates the words of the Quran in this matter. It is safe to know that a misconception regarding births of such nature exist in many cultures including those which we originated from. It is only a deviance which has crept up in the minds of individuals after the religion was established. I come only to clarify what my mentor taught me through his writings in his translation of the Holy Quran.
Please see Facebook comment here where we see nutfah is universal for man and his kind.
Please allow the mind to assimilate the views of a different faith from yours as we know there are truths in other viewpoints other than our own. Your son in repose has a request to make of you. I would like peace to occur with my Muslim brethren who are narrow minded about another view appearing in Islam after a time period has elapsed though it is only to their detriment that they consider this a deviation. In this we are safe as it boils down to a difference of opinion however they are being backward, in my view, if they cannot assimilate a view that is clear from our teachings which makes sense to a rational mind, as I do to you in this post.
Please know this is a common topic of debate in this day of rationality. I have used verses from the Quran and things mentioned on my previous posts of the topic to elucidate my viewpoints in regard to the creation of man, inclusive of Jesus, to be within the realms of reality.
Please know it is easy to say something about a personage like Jesus however the proof is very scant and comprises of statements after he left that area of Palestine. I know that when he made it clear that he was son of man it is unreasonable to allow the mind to deviate from rationality to suit a whim or excuse for creating Godhead in him.
The verses of the Quran about the creation of man from the ejaculate or nutfah of parents. There is no exception made for any entity inclusive of Jesus. Omar.
The pilgrimage or Hajj,
22:5 O people, if you are in doubt about the Resurrection, then surely We created you from dust, then from a small life-germ (Nutfah or ejaculate), then from a clot, then from a lump of flesh, complete in make and incomplete, that We may make clear to you. And We cause what We please to remain in the wombs till an appointed time, then We bring you forth as babies, then that you may attain your maturity. And of you is he who is caused to die, and of you is he who is brought back to the worst part of life, so that after knowledge he knows nothing. And thou seest the earth barren, but when We send down thereon water, it stirs and swells and brings forth a beautiful (growth) of every kind.
The Believer.
40:67 He it is Who created you from dust, then from a small life-germ, then from a clot, then He brings you forth as a child, then that you may attain your maturity, then that you may be old; and of you are some who die before and that you may reach an appointed term, and that you may understand,
The Bee.
16:4 He created man from a small life-germ, and lo! he is an open contender.
Virgin birth, a later extrapolation after the concept of godhead in Jesus emerged.
Review of the literature shows that the virgin birth is mentioned only in Matthew and Luke, as indicated here. It is counterintuitive to think that something as significant as the virgin birth of Jesus would not be known to the apostle John who doesn’t mention this at all in his gospel. Also, as mentioned previously the words in Luke and Matthew appear to be fallacies that these authors made in creating a Godhead in him similar to the sonship of God, for which there were no witnesses during his life there in Palestine. In this we are sane in that we know it is not an original concept associated with him as it was unknown to John and apparently to Mark as well. We know something as significant as the birth of him would have been known to all the gospel writers if it had indeed been a virgin birth. It is for this reason the dream associated with Joseph appears to be fictional or a fallacy in views where he saw an angel telling him about immaculate conception. He knew she had a rape child in her and relented to marry her so that populace would think it was his but it is so they knew it was from a rape process as the child who did it was annihilated by her testimony. It is obvious to a discerning mind that these discrepancies of nature crept into the mindset of people after he emigrated away from Palestine under the auspices of scholars like Paul and other apostles who deviated from his teachings in order to bring his message to the masses of people they wish to impress. Omar.
Please see the Ebionite sect of early Christian faith believed in virgin birth not of Jesus Christ.
Please see the Ebionites were a group of followers who revered James as a true teacher of Jesus’ gospel and they believed in trinity not and were purely monotheistic, something Jesus taught them, and James upheld there in his campaign against Paul’s group who were claiming divinity for Christ and also saying he was his son in the sense of begotten, something John put in his gospel, but it so occurs they died out in the second century and were replaced by trinitarians eventually as Paul’s teachings gained ground with them but just to elucidate they were of the firm opinion, as was James there, that Jesus had a normal birth process, yes, these were the early followers of truth from Him and are considered to be Muslims in our lore just like the disciples of Jesus have been called Muslims in the Quran. Omar.
Quran on the topic of Mary’s celibacy, prior to conception with Jesus, after her marriage.
The following is Facebook comment from my page where the verses of the Quran elucidate the matter that with the passage of time Mary became pregnant after she was told about the birth of her child in a prophetic revelation to her in the chapter of Mary and elsewhere.
Facebook comment here.
Please also know that the virgin birth of Jesus is in question here. In the Christian lore as well there is usage of the term ‘Be and it is’ and it means in due course these events will transpire and as indicated here that Mary was surprised she was to have a son when she had avowed herself to virginity. It is clear the reference is she would marry and not remain a virgin in her longevity. This inference can also be made from the Gospel of Luke where these events are mentioned as well. The verses from the Quran elucidate this matter as they were revealed to Mary before her entry occurred in a rape form, as elucidated here, then her marriage occurred in due course with Joseph with the consent of other people including her mother and so forth results she conceived other kids in due course as the Bible elucidates. Omar.
Chapter Amran of the Quran.
3:42 And when the angels said: O Mary, surely Allah has chosen thee and purified thee and chosen thee above the women of the world.
3:43 O Mary, be obedient to thy Lord and humble thyself and bow down with those who bow.
3:44 This is of the tidings of things unseen which We reveal to thee. And thou wast not with them when they cast their pens (to decide) which of them should have Mary in his charge, and thou wast not with them when they contended one with another.
3:45 When the angels said: O Mary, surely Allah gives thee good news with a word from Him (of one) whose name is the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, worthy of regard in this world and the Hereafter, and of those who are drawn nigh (to Allah),
3:46 And he will speak to the people when in the cradle and when of old age, and (he will be) one of the good ones.
3:47 She said: My Lord, how can I have a son and man has not yet touched me? He said: Even so; Allah creates what He pleases. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, Be, and it is.
Please see Mary was raped as a child of 14 and it is there in their archives that this did occur and virgin birth was a fallacy they promoted to them in the Christian lair there.
Please see the verse from Nisa is similar about saleeb and Jesus on it, it has to be explained, as they did in Ahmadiyyat.
Please see these verses from surah Maryam where it says she was in the throes of childbirth and she conceived unease in her and was told to be patient and persevere, he will clear the way for you when he is older and she fasted.
Please know these verses depict how I try mankind says Allah there as it is known she was raped yet they promote infidelity in her and say she was chaste not, a flaw seen in Bani-Israel people who know the truth but say otherwise.
Please know she was 14 when the rape occurred and was 15 when she was betrothed to Joseph, her sibling father type mate, as no one wanted her though initially they drew lots to have her as she was pious and would make a good wife they say.
Please know they promulgated false statements about her saying her pregnancy was a fallacy in her.
Please know when Jesus was old enough he cleared her name though he himself was called a bastard because of it as Joseph was not his father.
In throes she had him and Thomas, not expecting a 2nd child but it so occurred it did happen that way that he was 2nd born though identical to him who was 1st born, Jesus himself, and they stayed close to each other as child do then when they are identical twins.
Please know a newborn child does not speak so they knew he could not speak, it was later he spoke and cleared her name of infidelity as he was a saint and I spoke to him say I Allah to you, further, he could not be carried in her arms when he was older as the Quran says there, she just showed him to them at birth and pointed and it was late when he spoke the words quoted here in the Quran verse for you. It did occur to her that she should defend her honor but was told not to and to fast instead. He would clear her name late it would occur.
Please know the words of the Quran are interposed not but occur at a later time by the infant son not but when he was 4 years of age and it so occurred her name was cleared by God with the passage of time though they knew all along she had been raped and she was not promiscuous.
Please see it occur he was 4 years of age when he clarified he was prophet to be at the age of 40 or so and henceforth he was called prophet by them the Bani-Israel group though they were jealous puss of his intellect. Omar.
Maryam.
19:23 And the throes of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm-tree. She said: Oh, would that I had died before this, and had been a thing quite forgotten!
19:24 So a voice came to her from beneath her: Grieve not, surely thy Lord has provided a stream beneath thee.
19:25 And shake towards thee the trunk of the palm-tree, it will drop on thee fresh ripe dates.
19:26 So eat and drink and cool the eye. Then if thou seest any mortal, say: Surely I have vowed a fast to the Beneficent, so I will not speak to any man today.
19:27 Then she came to her people with him, carrying him. They said: O Mary, thou hast indeed brought a strange thing!
19:28 O sister of Aaron, thy father was not a wicked man, nor was thy mother an unchaste woman!
19:29 But she pointed to him. They said: How should we speak to one who is a child in the cradle?
19:30 He said: I am indeed a servant of Allah. He has given me the Book and made me a prophet:
19:31 And He has made me blessed wherever I may be, and He has enjoined on me prayer and poor-rate so long as I live:
19:32 And to be kind to my mother; and He has not made me insolent, unblessed.
19:33 And peace on me the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I am raised to life.
Please see the passages below indicate a virgin birth to her but she was surprised by it that it would be in the due course of events, as evinced in literature I have shown you previously.
The above passage is clear that when Mary received the message from the angels that she was to have a son who was a prophet she was a virgin at that time. She had avowed herself to virginity at the request of her parents and served in the temple from the age of three years approximately. When she developed menses she had to leave the temple and at that time it was decided that she would marry. They drew lots to see who would marry her then, then it occurred her rape. Prior to the process of marriage she received revelation through the angels that she would have a son by the name of Jesus and that he would be highly honored in this world and that in the next world would be one of those drawn near to our Creator. This is also stated elsewhere in the Quran, as indicated here.
Please know Mary was a virgin when this verse was revealed through her soul-mate in Paradise. She was betrothed to the temple and avowed to lead a life of monastic isolation then her menses occurred and she left but it is so the angel or man-spirit came to her in an eastern place. She initially had no intent of marriage or having children but it so occurred she did in due course. She knew her son Jesus was destined to greatness and she was foretold by Him that he would have honor, and regret as well. In his teachings, the similitude he used was taken out of context and it is here approximately two thousand years later that these terms have clarified to the satisfaction of scholars where his metaphor is explained in his verbiage to others regarding his relationship with the Creator.
See my post here.
In these verses it is apparent a spirit visited her and Mary had a vision of a man who came to her in her dream state. It was after this encounter she was ready for marriage. In this we have peace as all of us go through this stage in our youth. For Mary, who was a saint, it was a tangible experience. We know human sexuality goes through this stage in its development.
Please realize that the words spoken here are from a spirit from Him, not a man actually, as thought by some, she knew it was an angel though, man-like in his essence, who gave her a wet dream in which she conceived fear initially then realized her sexuality was norm for her and others she knew, she did not know what sex was until then when he appeared, Gabriel not but man-like spirit we have as girls, they say in Islam here.
Please see here she had not been chaste not and she knew child is given from touch she thought but it was so she had sex eventually when her rape occur and the man was killed for it, then she married him who was Joseph as a cover but the deed was done and they knew about it as the boy in question had been killed but it is so the Bani-Israel later changed facts and accused her of infidelity to Him, her Creat, and so it occurred they called it unchaste act while it was not and Jesus cleared her name to his follower though this has been hid there but it is in the archives there. It is true she avowed virginity in her but it so occurred sex had to occur in her but it was so she was inexperienced so We gave her a touch of him, her mate in heaven as we all have one, humankind do. The hadith from Abu Huraira and others only report a fallacy that Gabriel touched her shoulder and impregnated her and these hadith are not to be relied upon as many hadith coming from him are made up.
Eventually she realized her marriage would occur where she would have son, Jesus by name, but she didn’t realize it then she was to get pregnant in due course, it was later assimilation she had, at that time she thought it was going to be virginity in her to continue but she did become pregnant in due course when her rape resulted as I have mentioned here in my post to you. Omar.
Chapter nineteen or Mary.
19:16 And mention Mary in the Book. When she drew aside from her family to an eastern place;
19:17 So she screened herself from them. Then We sent to her Our spirit and it appeared to her as a well-made man.
19:18 She said: I flee for refuge from thee to the Beneficent, if thou art one guarding against evil.
19:19 He said: I am only bearer of a message of thy Lord: That I will give thee a pure boy.
19:20 She said: How can I have a son and no mortal has yet touched me, nor have I been unchaste?
19:21 He said: So (it will be). Thy Lord says: It is easy to Me; and that We may make him a sign to men and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter decreed.
Hadith and Quran on the topic of normalcy of Jesus as a man.
The verse that follows in my comment on Facebook refer to the nature of Jesus as a man entity who had a normal birth and life as a human being and not God as was being indicated to our Prophet Muhammad approximately 500 years after his demise. It also elucidates the same viewpoint where the creation of Jesus is considered to be like that of Adam. It does not indicate the birth of a prophet but refers to the underlying theme of the message of the verses in question. It indicates that both Adam and Jesus were humans composed from the materials of the earth, as all man are. Here the message is clear to the reader so I mention this only to certify that all mankind had their origin on earth and it is a fallacy of belief to think we descend from heaven in part or in toto. It states in the Quran that man will live and die on earth and the Bible is similar in that we are from dirt and to it we will return with no exception made in either case for Jesus, the saint-like man whose words on sonship are taken out of context and begotten applied there while that was not his car in intent as I have elucidated in this book to you.
There is also a saying from Ibn a Jarir al Tabari, a Muslim scholar in the third century after Islam that has some weakness in it however it is an elaborate saying and is likely to have merit with scholars. It is obvious to a reader the saying of our Prophet quoted here indicates an earthly father as he would not indicate him to be the son of Him, which clearly refutes the Muslim viewpoint regarding the sonship of a Christ in the actual sense.
This is the hadith verbatim here.
“Do you not know that Jesus was conceived by a woman in the manner in which all women conceive? Then she was delivered of him as women are delivered of their children? Then he was fed as children are fed. Then he ate food and drank water and answered the call of nature (as all mortals do)?” The deputation replied to all these questions in the affirmative, on which the Prophet said: “Then how can your claim (that he was God or Son of God) be true?”
Please see this post below where there is reality in birth of a child in that he is created like Adam and Jesus were from earth.
The teaching of godhead in Christ is refuted here in a teaching to the Christian delegation to him as reported by Ibn Jarir al Tabari that the Prophet indicated to the delegation that their prophet was conceived as men are. He indicated this by asking them “does not the son look like the father?” It is obvious he indicated he had an earthly father and not a celestial one, as any Muslim would know. In this matter it is clear he refuted the Christian viewpoint of him being God incarnate as His son. The hadith further goes on to say that he was conceived like other men were. The hadith has merit but it has not been seen by many in the Muslim world where they ascribe him to be of a virgin birth not unlike the pagan custom of ascribing their great men of similar fallacies.
The following verse indicates that the creation of Adam and Jesus was alike. They were both created from dust just like all mankind are. Adam was created from human parents as was Jesus. This is explained in an additional post which I will elaborate in the following section. The verse in particular talks about the origin of man being from dust. The verses that follow this verse indicate the displeasure our Creator has in this regard and recommends that Muslims should challenge the godhead in man fervently as when you say he is son of immaculate kind you create godhead in him as a natural consequence, as indicated here.
These verse that follows is indicative of the creation of both personages from earthly material and after their creation they are raised to reality as all kids are created in this way and with the statement as used previously ‘Be and it transpires.’
Please see the verses that follow show the creation of man to be like that of other personages of Islam and it is wrong to think of them being miraculous in nature like Adam or Jesus who were both created out of dust and not celestial material. This verse was to clarify to the Christion deputation that came to the Prophet to learn him that he was immaculate not and son not of His grace but of a simple construct like man is. Omar.
Chapter The Family of Amran.
3:57 And as to those who believe and do good deeds, He will pay them fully their rewards. And Allah loves not the unjust.
3:58 This We recite to thee of the messages and the Reminder full of wisdom.
3:59 The likeness of Jesus with Allah is truly as the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then said to him, Be, and he was.
3:60 (This is) the truth from thy Lord, so be not of the disputers.
3:61 Whoever then disputes with thee in this matter after the knowledge that has come to thee, say: Come! Let us call our sons and your sons and our women and your women and our people and your people, then let us be earnest in prayer, and invoke the curse of Allah on the liars.
Al-Mumin
40:64 Allah is He Who made the earth a resting-place for you and the heaven a structure, and He formed you, then made goodly your forms, and He provided you with goodly things. That is Allah, your Lord — so blessed is Allah, the Lord of the worlds.
40:65 He is the Living, there is no God but He; so call on Him, being sincere to Him in obedience. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds!
40:66 Say: I am forbidden to serve those whom you call upon besides Allah, when clear arguments have come to me from my Lord; and I am commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds.
40:67 He it is Who created you from dust, then from a small life-germ, then from a clot, then He brings you forth as a child, then that you may attain your maturity, then that you may be old; and of you are some who die before and that you may reach an appointed term, and that you may understand.
40:68 He it is Who gives life and causes death, so when He decrees an affair, He only says to it, Be, and it is.
Immanuel.
There is a misconception amongst Christian scholars that the birth of Immanuel was a virgin birth. It appears he was a warrior at the time of the king Ahaz during the time of the Prophet Isaiah in the eighth century BC. The following is my note from my Facebook page. It is clear to the reader that it was a time of turmoil for the king and his subject and the birth of the warrior was meant to allay their discomfiture.
Please know the birth of Jesus was construed in the late first century by the gospel writer Luke.
Please know Matthew followed suit but the idea did not find favor with John who does not refer to it in his writings. It is a clear extrapolation of the idea that the Jews promulgated about Mary that she had an illicit affair that resulted in the birth of Jesus. It was only a way they could defame her as she was known for her piety and her love for her son.
Please know the sign of Immanuel is much quoted in the Christian lore as a sign of the virgin birth of Christ.
Please know it refers to specific time in the days of the king Ahaz regarding the trouble he was facing from the foreign invaders of Ephraim and Syria. It in no way should be construed of the birth of Jesus a good seven centuries later when these people did not attack Judea, the capital state of the Jewish nation. It was taken out of context by the Christian scholar who initially portrayed it to mean the birth of Jesus. It applies to the time of Ahaz where a young girl gave birth to a warrior who fought on behalf of God apparently.
Please know the similarities are striking however as indicated here refer to a different time period. Omar.
Bible text.
6 “Let us go up against Judah and terrify it and let us conquer it for ourselves and set up the son of Tabeel as king in the midst of it,”
7 thus says the Lord God: “‘It shall not stand and it shall not come to pass.
8 For the head of Syria is Damascus and the head of Damascus is Rezin. And within sixty-five years Ephraim will be shattered from being a people.
9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you are not firm in faith you will not be firm at all.’”
10 Again the Lord spoke to Ahaz,
11 “Ask a sign of the Lord your God; let it be deep as Sheol or high as heaven.”
12 But Ahaz said, “I will not ask and I will not put the Lord to the test.”
13 And he said “Hear then, O house of David! Is it too little for you to weary men that you weary my God also?
14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son and shall call his name Immanuel.
15 He shall eat curds and honey when he knows how to refuse the evil and choose the good.
16 For before the boy knows how to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land whose two kings you dread will be deserted.
17 The Lord will bring upon you and upon your people and upon your father’s house such days as have not come since the day that Ephraim departed from Judah—the king of Assyria.”
Please see these words are Allah’s so don’t hold me accountable for calling myself holy to you.
Please see the Holy Spirit did not impregnate Mary as how can a spirit create the Y chromosome, which is earth material and a spirit is not, similarly, they say in Islam that it was created by chance not but materially but God doesn’t do that with nature He has and you know it is immaterial what we say, they will insist there it is parthenogenesis or something weird that happened but you know the hadith that Gabriel touch her and her pregnancy result is wrong according to hadith we have from Ibn Jarir’s book on the Quran that Mary conceived as other women conceive, and the Quran also makes no exception for the birth of Jesus being different in the verse related to the creation of mankind from sperm and so forth the Quran says that Jesus was created from dust, so where did the Y chromosome come from, obviously he had an earthly father and so you know these are lies generated by the Christian apologists and Muslim scholars followed suit not realizing they were being duped by new converts, then the hadith appear that Gabriel impregnated her, which is false say I Allah there, My Quran says My messenger came as a well formed man but only gave a message that she would have a child as she was recalcitrant and did not want to marry, so it occurred her rape eventually when she eyed him and he fell into arms with her by force with other men with him but it is so she got pregnant and they didn’t want him to marry, but he did, and waited not for consummation as he should have but they wed and Jesus was born to him and her but everybody knew her rape had occurred as he was killed by them for doing it and then they said calumny that she fornicated when he was born and she was asked to stay quiet, everybody knew anyway, and Jesus cleared her late when he started to teach them as a youth not but boy, I gave him that perception of their book that he knew instinctively what it meant, a certain verse, but it is true he was a rape victim as well but had shaur correct in things as Mary refused sex and was forced, so evil did not occur in her and her child was similarly innocent, so they as a team taught Me there and it ended up being a virgin birth to her in Christianity, there is no such thing in nature as the Quran says so there is no exception for anyone in my law of nature, not Adam or anyone else, all are created from dust or turab as the Arab word says, which is what sperm is created from and the egg too, more here as we know you won’t rest on this matter until I tell you Omar is the one who impregnated not but was the holy one who came to her when she refused marriage and he made love to her so she would be interested in sex and he did not give her sperm as he was a spirit then before he came to earth born here to his mother normally as child is, and there you have it she only became interested in sex with a real man and then eventually fell when she admired him and he approached her for sex and she refused knowing My law did not permit it and then the rest is as I said here say I the Creator to all.
Allah here.
Al-Imran.
3:58 This We recite to thee of the messages and the Reminder full of wisdom.
3:59 The likeness of Jesus with Allah is truly as the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then said to him, Be, and he was.
3:60 (This is) the truth from thy Lord, so be not of the disputers.

40:67 He it is Who created you from dust, then from a small life-germ, then from a clot, then He brings you forth as a child, then that you may attain your maturity, then that you may be old; and of you are some who die before and that you may reach an appointed term, and that you may understand.
40:68 He it is Who gives life and causes death, so when He decrees an affair, He only says to it, Be, and it is.

Then he was fed as children are fed. Then he ate food and drank water and answered the call of nature (as all mortals do)?” The deputation replied to all these questions in the affirmative, on which the Prophet said: “Then how can your claim (that he was God or Son of God) be true?”
Maryam.
19:16 And mention Mary in the Book. When she drew aside from her family to an eastern place;
19:17 So she screened herself from them. Then We sent to her Our spirit and it appeared to her as a well-made man.
19:18 She said: I flee for refuge from thee to the Beneficent, if thou art one guarding against evil.
19:19 He said: I am only bearer of a message of thy Lord: That I will give thee a pure boy.
19:20 She said: How can I have a son and no mortal has yet touched me, nor have I been unchaste?
19:21 He said: So (it will be). Thy Lord says: It is easy to Me; and that We may make him a sign to men and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter decreed.
19:22 Then she conceived him; and withdrew with him to a remote place.
Please see the story from the Biblical accounts which complements the Quran narrative.
Please see Jesus’ story from the Bible is similar and it contradicts not the words from the Quran that he was immaculate conception not and these are tales that came about as he was teaching Islam to them and they realized how great was his concept of things and they started calling him son in a sense of begotten and said things like he was god incarnate which he tried to correct in his vernacular to them, more here as you want to know his hair was immaculate not but very precise in things he talked about and they were enthralled with his speech to them which was full of parables and similes, the world had not known an intelligence like his, so godhead started to appear in their hearts, but he never said it as the bible shows.
Please know son of God was similar and they started saying diverse things about him like he descend from heaven but it is so Mary was cautious and advised him to be so, so he started negating it by saying he was son of man and other virtues of making it clear in John when they approached him to stone ‘it’ as they call him he clarified these are only similes and he would not commit blasphemy by calling him Christ not but son literally, and so he made it clear to them in his vernacular that he was human as he did when he asked Peter and others there who he was as son of man and they replied he was son of God, another simile for a prophet of his Grace, but I know you know this and after he left Paul and others insist he was son literally and put it there in gospel they had as a begotten son of his Beneficence and so it occurred in gospel law of Christianity that he was called literal ways as son, a simile not, while all the prophets of the bible were, this was a heresy the church adopt and it came about in the Council of Nicaea he was the same substance as his Creator and was thus called God based upon the similes he use, more here would be sane and they formulated trinity saying the Holy Spirit was one as well since he impregnated her who was Mary but as I said here the spirit cannot provide earth material which is sperm and so there you have it they know God does not sleep with women but still they say the holy one did it and it is the same as God doing it but we know fallacy is their door as spirit can give love in the context of a wet dream but cannot produce child, for it you need a real man to do that, so you see the fallacy of their way in implying things with no sense in it but it is so the Quran validates that Jesus had a sperm to form him and so did every human on earth with no exceptions, there you have it in a nutshell the biblical account so pay no heed to what others say about him as literal son, he never said it and that’s the story here.
Allah too.
Please see this preamble to the end of the chapter on how things got formulated in the Christian church and how the Quran validates him who is Jesus in his teachings to them, the Bani-Israel group there.
Please see when you see beauty in someone like the Bani-Israel did with Jesus they exaggerate their aplomb of him and say he is remarkable and some ignorant ones exclaim he is god to them, a low act of exaggerate in him, but it occurs with Bani-Israel people, like those before did this idolatry in the Pharaoh realm and Moses had to fight hard to get it out of them, this idolatry they do, and it was similar there when the Romans occupy them, they use their vernacular of godhead and things like saying he is son of God, like they say who occupy them, and it came about that Paul capitalize on this and asked John and other disciples to write their story with this in it that he was son begotten like the Romans had sons of his Grace and Eminence as they used to call their Caesars sons of God as well, and they did this in order to bring gentiles to Islam they had, so it came about son, and Paul called him God as well though the disciples didn’t relent on this matter, but they did, Constantine’s group, who made it occur as the son is like the Father, there you have it here how these things came about.

Epilogue about this matter that we are created in nature as the verse of Al-Imran says about Jesus and others.
From the information provided here it is obvious that the Quran has been misinterpreted after Muslim scholars leaned towards interpreting the verses on the information they learnt from Biblical sources. In this we are sane as it is easy to surmise things from the Bible if they do not appear to be categorically dismissed in the verses of the Quran. It is a common error the early Muslim scholars fell into and they have added information to the lives of other prophets as well based upon the scripture of the Old Testament or weak hadith based upon these scriptures. I will try to elucidate these errors in a different book. Suffice it to say here that the birth of Jesus was that of any other man as indicated in the hadith from Ibn Jarir Al Tabari and from the literature of the Quran used for reference. It is a mistake for a Muslim to believe that the birth of one prophet should be different from any other based upon a personal opinion of scholars from before. It does not meet credibility to an observer of nature in this day and age and it should not be construed as a basis for formulation of thought processes regarding all prophets whose miracle or sign was that they received revelation from their Creator. In this we are safe as this revelation needs to be understood and comprehended that this communication is unseen and to some in this rational age it is something they cannot comprehend but a believer in the Creator knows this form of communication is a miracle that has occurred since time immemorial.
In the laws of nature there is no deviance for any prophet and saint and it is clear with the coming of our Prophet Muhammad there is no role for deviances to appear in the minds of people, as it is well known to a Muslim person he was the best of mankind and he had a normal birth and death. It is easy for the lay to observe falsehoods about a personage and it is time for normalcy to appear in the teachings of them about Jesus or any other personage they wish to ascribe supernatural events to their life as men or women on earth. It is clear from available data you will deter on this issue until after my death but it is so your youth know it is true that parthenogenesis cannot create a son for Mary as she lacked Y chromosome in her and they will come through for me inshallah they will. Omar.
