A misconception which arose from the circumstances of Jesus birth is that he was the "son of God".
‘They say : Allah has taken a son. Glorified be he! He has no needs! His all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. You have no warrant for this. Do you tell concerning Allah what you do not know?’ 10.68
"And remember when Allah said : Oh Jesus See! I am gathering you and causing you to ascend to Me, and cleansing you of those who disbelieve and am setting those who follow you above those who disbelieve until the Day of resurrection. Then to Me you will (all) return, and I shall judge between you as to that in which you used to differ. As for those who disbelieve, I shall chastise them with a heavy chastisement in the world and the Hereafter; and they will have no helpers. And as for those who believe and do good works, He will pay them their wages in full. Allah loves not wrong-doers. This (which) We recite to you is a revelation and a wise reminder. The likeness of Jesus with Allah is likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, then He said to him : Be! And he is. 3.55-59
"And they say: Allah has taken to Himself a son. Be He glorified! No! But whatever is in the heavens and earth is His. All are subservient to Him. The Originator of the heavens and the earth! When He decrees a thing, He says to it only: Be! And it is." 2/116-117
"And they say: The Compassionate has taken to Himself a son. Be He glorified! No, but (those whom they call sons) are honoured slaves; they do not speak until He has spoken, and they act by His command. He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot intercede except for him whom He accepts, and they intercede except for him whom He accepts, and they quake for awe of Him. And one of them who should say; Look! I am god beside Him, that one We should repay with hell. Thus We repay wrong-doers." 21.26-30
"And they say that the Compassionate has taken Himself a son. Certainly you utter a disastrous thing, whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split open and the mountains fall in ruins, that you ascribe to the Compassionate a son! When it is not fitting for (the Majesty of) the Compassionate that He should choose a son. There is none in the heavens and the earth but comes to the Compassionate as a slave." 19.88-93
"And the Jews say: "Ezra is the son of Allah," and the Christians say: "The Messiah is the son of Allah." That is their saying with their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved of old. Allah (Himself) fights against them. How perverse are they! They have taken as lords beside Allah their rabbis and their monks and the Messiah, son of Mary, when they were ordered to worship only One God. There is no god except Him . Be glorified from all that they ascribe as partner (to him)! If they could they would put out the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah disdains anything except that He shall perfect His Light, however much the disbelivers are against it. 9.30-32
"Then she pointed to him, they said, "How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?" He (Jesus) said, "Verily, I am a worshipper of Allah. He has given me the Book and made me a Prophet. He has made me blessed wherever I may be and enjoined upon me prayer and zakat as long as I live and made me obedient to my mother and He has not made me arrogant and unblessed." 19/28-32.
