Look into Surah Mariam (chather of Mary) and Surah Al-Imran (chapter Family of Amran).
I do not have Abdullah Yusuf Ali's English translation but I know some of the translaters were/are not in the favor of translating a name from Arabic to any other languege for the sake of unity and understanding. If that is the case, you may find Jesus' name as it's called in Arabic, Isa and Mary's name will be found as Mariam.

Read chapter Maryam (or Mary). The name of Jesus is mentioned exactly 25 times in the Holy Qur'an.

Here is one

4:157 That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah.;- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-

I wish I could remember, but I can't. I know that it is close to the end, meaning the beginning of most books since there's is backward, unless you have one that reads like our books. It talks about Jesus, Mary, and some of the OT characters. You might try looking up Mary's name. That could help you find it.

Jesus is mentioned in Chapter 2,3,4,5,6, to name a few...

there's too many mentions of Isa (Jesus) in the Quran. There's also a whole chapter (Chapter 19) on Maryam (Mary, mother of Jesus). Read through it slowly, there's more to know from it (Quran).

If you want to read the truth about Jesus, put down the Qu`ran and pick up the Holy Bible, New Testament...

You know when He speaks, it's in red letters.

Jesus Rocks!

some of the verses related to jesus are as follow.
“Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary: (it is) a statement of truth about which they (vainly) dispute. It is not befitting to (the majesty of) Allah that He should beget a son. Glory be to Him! When He determines a matter He only says to it "Be" and it is.”
Chapter 19, Verses 34-35
“They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!" Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous! At if the skies are ready to burst the earth to split asunder and the mountains to fall down in utter ruin. That they should invoke a son for (Allah) Most Gracious. For it is not consonant with the majesty of (Allah) Most Gracious that He should beget a son. Not one of the beings in the heavens and the earth but must come to (Allah) Most Gracious as a servant.”
Chapter 19, Verses 88-93
“This similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam: He created him from dust then said to him: "Be" and he was.”
Chapter 3, Verse 59

“O people of the Book! commit no excesses in your religion: nor say of Allah aught but truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) an Apostle of Allah and His Word which He bestowed on Mary and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His Apostles. Say not "Trinity": desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is One Allah: glory be to him: (for Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs.”
Chapter 4, Verse 171
“And behold! Allah will say "O Jesus the son of Mary! didst thou say unto men `worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah"? He will say: "Glory to Thee! never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing Thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart though I know not what is in Thine. For Thou knowest in full all that is hidden. "Never said I to them aught except what Thou didst command me to say to wit `Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them whilst I dwelt amongst them; when Thou didst take me up thou wast the Watcher over them and Thou art a Witness to all things.” Chapter 5, Verses 116-117
That they rejected faith: that they uttered against Mary a grave false charge. That they said (in boast) "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary the Apostle of Allah"; but they killed him not nor crucified him but so it was made to appear to them and those who differ therein are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge but only conjecture to follow for of a surety they killed him not. Nay Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power Wise. And there is none of the People of the Book but must believe in him before his death; and on the Day of Judgment He will be a witness against them.”
Chapter 4, Verses 156-159
