Question:

Salaam 'alaykum. Pls what is the historical difference between 'Imran the father of Prophet Musa, & the father of Maryam
Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

The interval between Imraan the father of Prophet Moosa (Moses) may Allaah exalt his mention and Imraan the father of Maryam (Mary), may Allaah exalt her mention, was 1,800 years as mentioned by some interpreters of the Quran. However, we have not come across any evidence that proves it or disproves it.

Allaah Knows best.
