Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a questioner for the program: Abdullah al-Hasan. He says: I hope His Eminence the Shaykh will clarify for me regarding the saying of Allah the Exalted in Surat Maryam
O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste."يَا أُخْتَ هَارُونَ مَا كَانَ أَبُوكِ امْرَأَ سَوْءٍ وَمَا كَانَتْ أُمُّكِ بَغِيًّا
[Maryam:28], and when Allah sent Moses to Pharaoh in His saying:
And my brother Aaron is more fluent than me in tongue, so send him with me as support, verifying meوَأَخِي هَارُونُ هُوَ أَفْصَحُ مِنِّي لِسَانًا فَأَرْسِلْهُ مَعِي رِدْءًا يُصَدِّقُنِي
[Al-Qasas:34], is Aaron the brother of Mary and the brother of Moses?

Answer:
The correct view is that Aaron, the brother of Mary, is not the same as Aaron, the brother of Moses; because there is a long period between the time of Moses and Aaron and the time of Mary. So this Aaron is the name of a brother of Mary, other than Aaron, the brother of Moses. Yes.
