It is mentioned in your Qur’an that Mary was the sister of Aaron (pbuh). Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) did not know the difference between Miriam the sister of Aaron (pbuh) and Mary the
Mother of Jesus (pbuh), as the time span between both of them was about a thousand years.

Christian missionaries say that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did not know the difference
between Mary the mother of Jesus (pbuh) and Miriam the sister of Aaron (pbuh). The time
span between both was more than a thousand years.
In the Arabic construction of the sentence, sister is also considered as a descendant. Thus,
when the people said to Mary, Ya Ukhta Haroon i.e. ‘O sister of Aaron’ it actually means
descendant of Aaron (pbuh).
The explanation of the phrase that Jesus (pbuh) was the son of David (pbuh), is that Jesus
(pbuh) was a descendant of David (pbuh). So, ‘Son’ here too means a descendant.
