Salam everybody,
Who is the father of Jesus, I think the answer is withing the great reading:
19:17. She took to a barrier which separated her from them, so We sent Our Spirit to her, and he took on the shape of a human being in all similarity.
Faittakhathat min doonihim hijabanfaarsalna ilayha roohana fatamaththala laha basharan sawiyyan
IMHO, the messenger who was sent to her is the father of Jesus.
19:18. She said: “I seek refuge with the Almighty from you if you are a person of faith.”
Qalat innee aAAoothu bialrrahmani minka in kunta taqiyyan
The human being mesenger granted her of a son according the creator laws. Like 7.189 (see below), the messenger he dwelled with her.
19:19. He said: “I am the messenger of your Lord, to grant you the gift of a pure son.”
Qala innama ana rasoolurabbiki li-ahaba laki ghulaman zakiyyan
19:20. She said: “How can I have a son when no human being has been with me, nor have I desired such?
Qalat anna yakoonu lee ghulamunwalam yamsasnee basharun walam aku baghiyyan
It is easy for a female and its mate to have a baby if they submit to the creator laws.
19:21. He said: “It is such that your Lord has said, it is easy for Me. And We shall make him a sign for the people and a mercy from Us. It is a matter already ordained.”
Qala kathaliki qalarabbuki huwa AAalayya hayyinun walinajAAalahu ayatan lilnnasiwarahmatan minna wakana amran maqdiyyan
19:22. So she was pregnant with him, and she went to deliver in a far place.
Fahamalat-hu faintabathatbihi makanan qasiyyan
7:189. He is the One who created you from one person, and He made from it its mate to reside with. 1) When he dwelled with her, 2) she became pregnant with a light load, and she continued with it; then when it became heavy, they called on God, their Lord: “If You give us an upright child, then we will be among the thankful.”
Huwa allathee khalaqakum min nafsinwahidatin wajaAAala minha zawjaha liyaskunailayha falamma taghashshaha hamalathamlan khafeefan famarrat bihi falamma athqalatdaAAawa Allaha rabbahuma la-in ataytanasalihan lanakoonanna mina alshshakireena
Like the believing woman who granted herself to the prophet, the human being messenger granted mary of a son by granting hisself to her.
33:50. O prophet, We have made lawful for you the wives to whom you have already given their dowries, and those who are committed to you by oath, as granted to you by God, and the daughters of your father's brothers, and the daughters of your father's sisters, and the daughters of your mother's brothers, and the daughters of your mother's sisters, of whom they have emigrated with you. Also, the believing woman who granted herself to the prophet, the prophet may marry her if he wishes, as a privilege given only to you and not to the believers. We have already decreed their rights in regard to their spouses and those who are committed to them by oath. This is to spare you any hardship. God is Forgiver, Merciful.

Idem, Zachariah asked the creator to grant him a progeny according the god laws.
3:38. It was then that Zachariah called on his Lord, he said: “My Lord, grant me from You a good progeny, You are the hearer of prayers.”

God knows best.
Peace
