Now, one can still argue that Muhammad had been influenced by Galen and Aristotle but lets say he didn't borrow from them, can you explain why he borrowed the virgin birth story of Jesus from the NT Bible? There is no other place such a story could be found. One cannot argue that the Quran came before the record testimony in the Bible. Since Jesus' virgin birth hadn't been recorded in the OT Bible or the torah and so on, why did Muhammad imperfectly borrow this from the NT Bible and reject the reasons for Jesus' virgin birth given in the sources he found them in?

I think you have no evidence to prove that prophet Muhammad Pbuh has been influenced by Galen and Aristotle. Any argument about this issue will surely lack solid evidence to prove and you will just be trying to prove this because you want to prove it.
Anyway if you want to try to prove this, try your best and I will answer you and show you that your argument lacks solid evidence and I'll show yoi the scientific accuracy of the embryology in the Quran and Sunnah. By the way, I am a physician.

Regarding the story of virgin birth, I think you have to read what I am writing more carefully because I answered this yesterday and it seems you didn't read my answer.
Here is my answer again :

Prophet Muhammad Pbuh didn't borrow from the NT the story of virgin birth. Simply, this is a true story, so Luke knew about it and he wrote it in his message to Theophilus. God told us about the story of virgin birth in the holy Quran too. However, the Quran mentions more details about the story like the story of the Christ speaking just after his birth so you can't say it's just copied from the NT.
Simply the reason of the virgin birth of Jesus Pbuh is as a sign of the power of God and of course this could not be a proof that Jesus is the son of God or God himself.
Adam Pbuh was created without neither a father nor a mother and this is not an evidence that he is son of God or God and the same applies to Jesus Pbuh.
