In this post I have listed occurrences of the name Maryam.
S 2:87 And we gave Musa the Book and sent the messengers after him. And we gave Isa son of Maryam the proofs and supported him with the Holy Spirit. So has every time a messenger come to you with what your souls do not desire you have been arrogant? So a party you accused of lying and a party you kill.
A party of messengers are killed? But wasn't Allah's boss the last?
S 2:253 Those messengers--we preferred some of them to others. Of them he whom Allah spoke to and raised some of them in degrees. And we gave Isa son of Maryam the proofs and supported him with the Holy Spirit. And had Allah willed, those after them would not have fought one another, after the proofs had come to them. But they differed, so of them is he who believed and of them he who disbelieved. And had Allah willed they would not have fought one another, but Allah does what he wants.
S 3:36 Then when she had laid her she said: Lord, I have laid her, a female. And Allah is a knower of what she had laid and the male is not like the female. And I have named her Maryam and I seek refuge for her in you and her offspring from the rajim Devil.
S 3:37 So her lord accepted her well and she caused her to sprout well and we put her in the care of Zakariyya. Whenever Zakariyya entered the mihrab upon her he found provision with her. He said: Maryam, whence do you have this? She said: It is from Allah. Allah gives provision to whom he wills without account.
This reflects the idea found in earlier literature that St Mary was lodged in the Temple. See The Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew and Joseph the Carpenter in Islam [Part 1]
S 3:42 And when the angels said: Maryam, Allah has chosen you and purified you and chosen you over the women of the ‘alamin.
The author uses the word chosen twice.
S 3:43 Maryam, be obedient to your lord and do sujud and bow with the bowers.
S 3:44 That is from the news of the ghayb. We inspire you with it. And you were not in their presence when they threw their pens as to which of them takes charge of Maryam. And you were not in their presence when they dispute.
S 3:45 When the angels said: Maryam, Allah gives you good news of a word from him. His name is The Messiah Isa Son Of Maryam, a dignitary in the dunya and the hereafter and of the Muqarrabun.
S 4:156 And for their kufr and their speaking great defamation against Maryam.
S 4:157 And their saying: We killed the Messiah, Isa son of Maryam, the messenger of Allah. And they did not kill him and they did not crucify him but it was made to appear to them. And those who have differed about it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, of a certainty.
"[O]f a certainty." This sounds like something that a man might say. 'For sure'.
S 4:171 People of the Book, do not exceed in your religion nor say about Allah but the truth. The Messiah Isa Son Of Maryam is only Allah’s messenger and his word which he threw to Maryam and spirit from him. So believe in Allah and his messengers and do not say Three. Cease; it is better for you. Allah is only one god. Praise be to him that he should have a child! His is what is in the skies and what is on the Earth. And Allah was sufficient as an agent.
S 5:17 Disbelieved have those who have said: Allah, he is the Messiah the son of Maryam. Say: Then who dominates against Allah in a thing if he wants to destroy the Messiah the son of Maryam and his mother and all those on the Earth? And Lah’s is the dominion of the skies and the Earth and what is between them. He creates what he wills and Allah is mighty over everything.
The Mushrik
S 5:46 And we sent on their tracks Isa son of Maryam, confirming what is in front of him of the Torah, and we gave him the Injil. Therein is guidance and light and confirming what is in front of him of the Torah and guidance and exhortation for the fearers.
S 5:72 Those who have said: Allah, he is the Messiah the son of Maryam, have disbelieved. And the Messiah said: Banu Isra’il, worship Allah, my lord and your lord. He who associates with Allah, Allah has forbidden him the Jannah and his shelter is the fire. And the wrongdoers have no helpers.
S 5:75 The Messiah the son of Maryam is nothing but a messenger. The messengers passed away before him and his mother is truthful. The two of them used to eat food. See how we make the signs clear to them. Then see how deluded they are!
S 5:78 Those who disbelieved of the Banu Isra'il were cursed by the tongue of Dawud and Isa son of Maryam. That was because they disobeyed and used to transgress.
S 5:110 When Allah said: Isa son of Maryam, remember my grace upon you and upon your mother when I supported you with the Holy Spirit when you speak to the people in the cradle and in middle age. And when I taught you the book and the wisdom and the Torah and the Injil. And when you create from the clay as the form of the bird with my permission and blow into it and it is a bird with my permission and you heal the blind man and the leper with my permission and when you bring out the dead with my permission. And when I restrained the Banu Isra’il from you when you brought them proofs and those who disbelieved of them said: This is nothing but obvious magic.
S 5:112 When the Hawariyun said: Isa son of Maryam, is your lord able to send down to us a table from the sky? He said: Fear Allah if you are believers.
S 5:114 Isa son of Maryam said: Allahumma our lord, send down upon us a table from the sky being for us a festival for the first of us and the last of us and a sign from you. And provide us, and you are the best of providers.
S 5:116 And when Allah said: Isa son of Maryam, did you say to people, Take me and my mother as two gods instead of Allah? He said: Praise be to you! It is not for me to say what I have no right to. If I had said it, you would have known. You know what is in my soul but I do not know what is in your soul. You are the knower of the ghuyub.
S 9:31 They have taken their rabbis and their monks as lords instead of Allah and the Messiah the son of Maryam. And they were not commanded but to worship one god. There is no god but him. Praise be to him from what they associate!
S 19:16 And mention in the book Maryam, when she withdrew from her family to an eastern place.
S 19:27 So she came with him to her people, carrying him. They said: Maryam, you have come with an extraordinary thing.
S 19:34 That is Isa son of Maryam, the speech of truth which they dispute about.
S 23:50 And we made the son of Maryam and his mother a sign and we sheltered them to a rabwah of calm and a spring.
The sheltering to a rabwah is a reference to the doctrine of the Assumption of Mary.
S 33:7 And when we took from the prophets their covenant and from you and from Nuh and Ibrahim and Musa and Isa son of Maryam and we took from them a thick covenant
If a covenant was 'taken' from the prophets and from you, how might the author have been a prophet? Were the following characters? Was the covenant 'taken' from Nuh, Ibrahim, Musa and Isa a different one? As 'them' cannot refer to the author, he can be excluded from those from whom it was taken..
S 43:57 And when the son of Maryam was presented as a similitude, behold, your people turn from it.
S 57:27 Then we sent after on their tracks our messengers and we sent after Isa son of Maryam and gave him the Injil. And we put kindness and mercy in the hearts of those who followed him. And monasticism, they innovated it. We did not write it upon them but the seeking of Allah’s pleasure but they did not observe it with its right care. So we gave those who had believed among them their wage and many of them are fasiqun.
S 61:6 And when Isa son of Maryam said: Banu Isra’il, I am Allah’s messenger to you, confirming what is in front of me of the Torah and as one giving the good news of a messenger coming after me whose name is Ahmad. But when he came to them with the proofs they said: This is obvious magic.
S 61:14 Those who have believed, be Allah’s helpers, as Isa son of Maryam said to the Hawariyun: Who are my helpers to Allah? The Hawariyun said: We are Allah’s helpers. Then a band of the Banu Isra’il believed and a band disbelieved. So we backed those who believed against their enemy and they became assistants.
S 66:12 And Maryam daughter of Imran who fortified her private part and we blew into it from our spirit. And she believed in her lord’s words and his books. And she was of the obedient.
