´Narrated Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah:` "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent me to Najran. They said to me: 'Do you people not recite: O sister of Harun (19:28) - while between Musa and 'Eisa there is such (gap) as there is?' I did not know how to respond to them. So when I returned to the Prophet (ﷺ), I told him about that, and he said: 'Why didn't you tell them that they were named after their Prophets and righteous people before them.'"
Hadith Referenceسنن ترمذي / كتاب تفسير القرآن عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم / 3155
1؎: O sister of Harun, your father was not a wicked man, nor was your mother unchaste.
2؎: Then this statement is incorrect, because here the address is to Maryam, and she is called the sister of Harun. Harun was the brother of Musa, and there is a long interval between the times of Musa and Isa (alayhimas-salam). So how can it be correct to call Maryam the sister of Harun?
3؎: That is, the Harun mentioned in the verse is Maryam’s brother, and the Harun who was the brother of Musa is someone else.
