(Ghafir 40:41)
"And, O my people! What aileth me that I call you unto deliverance when ye call me unto the Fire ? Ye call me to disbelieve in ALLah and ascribe unto Him as partners that whereof I have no knowledge, while I call you unto the Mighty, the Forgiver. Assuredly that whereunto ye call me hath no Claim in the world Or in the Hereafter, and Our return will be unto Allah, and the prodigals will be owners Of the Fire. And ye will remember what I say unto you. I confide my cause unto Allah. Lo! Allah is Seer Of (His) Slaves"

Of ALL the major Religions in the world, Islam is the Only Non-Christian Faith that Recognises Jesus. Within the pages Of the Qur'an is a distinctly Islamic portrayal Of Jesus. Three Of Its Surahs/Chapters, (AL-Imran), (AL-Maida) & (Mariam) are So named because Of their references to Jesus & His work.NASAg03 said:I have learned a lot about islam. eventually i would like to read the Q'uran, but i'm working on finishing the Bible first. I'm on my 2nd go at the NT. Only made it up to Jeremiah on the OT. I just can't get that much into it
They First talk Of How Mary was Considered Rightous, Of How ALLah made Her Pure (AL-Imran 3:42) "And when the angels said: O Mary! Lo! ALLah hath Chosen thee and made thee pure, and hath preferred thee above (all) the women Of Creation"
Of How She was Preferred with Signs (AL-Imran 3:37) "Whenever Zachariah went into the Sanctuary where She was, He Found that She had Food. He said: O Mary! Whence Cometh unto thee this (food) ? She answered: It is From Allah. Allah giveth without Stint to whom He will"
And Of How She Got Pregnant with Her Infant after ALLah had Promised Her via the Angles, and named this Child For Her (AL-Imran 3:45) "(And remember) when the angels said: O Mary! Lo! Allah giveth thee glad tidings Of a word From Him, whose name is the Messiah, Jesus, Son Of Mary, illustrious in the world and the Hereafter, and One Of those brought near (unto Allah)"
The Holy Quran makes It very CLear that the Promised Child was Created by the Will Of GOD, without a Male Intervention, and Clarify that this the action Shouldn't be Considered as the Child being GOD Himself, becuase even Adam was created Unlike the Usual Picture that People think Of (AL-Imran 3:59) "The likeness Of Jesus with ALLah is as the likeness Of Adam. He created Him Of dust, then He said unto Him: Be! and He is" but was Created by the Godly word (Be)
Actually, this is Considered among the First Miracles Granted to Jesus Christ (PBUh), then ALLah Let Him talk at the Onset Of His Infancy, in His Craddle, to defend His Mother From what She was Claimed to be by Her People (Mariam 19:28-33) "Then She pointed to Him. They said: How can we talk to One who is in the Cradle, a young Boy ? He spake: Lo! I am the SLave Of ALLah. He hath given me the Scripture and hath appointed me a Prophet, And hath made me BLessed wheresoever I may be, and hath enjoined upon me prayer and ALmsgiving so Long as I remain ALive, And (hath made me) dutiful toward Her who bore me, and hath not made me arrogant, Unblest. Peace On me the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I shall be raised alive!"
When He Reached Adulthood, and became a Fully grown man that can take Responsibilities, GOD ALmighty appointed Him as Prophet (AL-Maidah 5:46) "And We caused Jesus, Son Of Mary, to Follow in their Footsteps" and a Preacher Of the Message that ALL Of the Prophets brought to their People:Worship ALmighty GOD, and Him ALone. Have Faith, and Live your Life according to that Faith (AL-Imran 3:50) "And (I come) confirming that which was before me of the Torah, and to make lawful some of that which was forbidden unto you" So, He was given the Knowledge Of the Torah (AL-Maidah 5:110) "And how I taught thee the Scripture and Wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel" and the Possession Of the Injel (AL-Maidah 5:46) "And We Bestowed On Him the Gospel wherein is guidance and a Light"
No to Forget the Jesus Christ (PBUH) was Granted From ALLah, the ability to Perform Miracles So that People may refrain From their wicked ways, and Believe in the One true GOD (AL-Maidah 5:110) "And how thou didst shape Of Clay as It were the Likeness Of a bird by My permission, and didst BLow upon It and It was a bird by My permission, and thou didst Heal Him who was born Blind and the leper by My permission; and How thou didst raise the dead by My Permission" and Among Others were (AL-Imran 3:49) "And I announce unto you what ye eat and what ye Store up in your houses"
The Holy Quran also Clarifies that His Message (PBUH) was to the People Of Israel Primarly (AL-Imran 3:49) "And will make Him a messenger unto the Children Of Israel", that when He conveyed The Message and Said Unto them (AL-Saff 61:6) "O Children Of Israel! Lo! I am the messenger Of Allah unto you, Confirming that which was (revealed) before me in the Torah, and bringing good tidings Of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One", the People Of Israel divided among themselves into a Believer & and Dis-believer (AL-Saff 61:14) "And a party Of the Children of Israel Believed, while a party Disbelieved", and those who Believed in Him were His true Honored deciples, while Others whos Hated Him were Cursed, and eventually deserved the Anger From GOD ALmighty Upon them (AL-Maidah 5:78-79) "Those Of the Children Of Israel who went astray were cursed by the tongue Of David, and Of Jesus, Son Of Mary. That was because they Rebelled and used to transgress. They restrained not One another From the wickedness they did. Verily evil was that they used to do!"
The Holy Quran also mentions in more than One Place the Survival Of Jesus Christ (PBUH) From the Curcifixtion event, that took place Historically (AL-Imran 3:55) "And am CLeansing thee Of those who disbelieve", and ensures that the Guy who was tracked down wasn't the Prophet Of GOD Isa (PBUH) (AL-Nissa 4:157) "They SLew him not nor Crucified Him, but It appeared So unto them" & and that the Knowledge Of the People Of the Book (Christians) is minor regarding what Happened during that event (AL-Nissa 4:157) "They Have no Knowledge thereof save pursuit Of a Conjecture; they sLew Him not For certain"
And The Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) spoke about the Coming Of His Brother Isa (PBUH) and said "There is No prophet between me and Him, that is, Jesus (Peace_Be_Upon_Him). He will descent (to the earth). When you see Him, recognise Him: a man Of Medium Height, reddish Fair, Wearing two Light yellow Garments, Looking as If drops were Falling down From His head though It will not be wet. He will Fight the people For the cause Of Islam. He will Break the Cross, Kill swine, and Abolish Jizyah. ALLah will perish all Religions except Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live On the earth For Forty years and then He will die. The Muslims will pray Over Him" (Book 37, Hadith 4310)
In addition, The Quranic verses Also warned From thinking Of Or Putting Jesus Christ at a Higher Stage than He actually was (AL-Nissa 4:171) "O People Of the Scripture! Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter aught concerning ALLah save the truth", but to take the Plain truth that (Mariam 33:34) "Such was Jesus, son of Mary: (this is) a statement Of the truth Concerning which they doubt. It befitteth not (the Majesty Of) ALLah that He should take unto Himself a Son. Glory be to Him! When He decreeth a thing, He saith unto It Only: Be! and It is"
ALso, In the day Of Judgement, He will turn His back to ALL those that gave Him Divinity (AL-Maidah 5:116-117) "And when ALLah saith: O Jesus, Son of Mary! Didst thou say unto Mankind: Take me and my mother For two gods beside ALLah ? He saith: Be glorified! It was not mine to utter that to which I had No right. If I used to say It, then Thou knewest It. Thou knowest what is in my mind, and I know not what is in Thy Mind. Lo! Thou, Only Thou, art the Knower Of Things Hidden ? I spake unto them Only that which Thou Commandedst me, (saying): Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord. I was a witness of them while I dwelt among them, and when Thou tookest me Thou wast the Watcher over them. Thou art Witness Over ALL things"
One can see From what previously said that Believing in this Great man is a base Of Faith For Muslims, and that ALLah won't accept anyone who has doubt in this Prophet (AL-Baqarah 2:285) "The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto Him From His Lord and (So do) believers. Each one believeth in ALLah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers - We make no distinction between any Of His messengers"
I Hope this gave a Pre-knowledge Of what you might Expect regarding your Faith
