What do Muslims believe about Jesus?
Muslims respect and revere Jesus (peace be upon him) ,
and await his second coming. They consider him one of
the greatest of God’s messengers to mankind....
A Muslim never refers to him simply as `Jesus',
but always adds the phrase "peace be upon him.
" The Qur’aan confirms his virgin birth
(a chapter of the Qur’aan is entitled `Mary')
in her time, and Mary is considered the purest woman
in all creation. The Qur’aan describes the creation
of Jesus as follows (interpretation of the meaning):
"Behold! the Angel said, `God has chosen you, and purified you,
and chosen you above the women of all nations.
O Mary, God gives you glad tidings of a word from Him,
whose name shall be the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary,
honored in this world and the Hereafter,
and one that shall speak to the people from his
cradle and in maturity, and shall be of the righteous.
' She said: `O my Lord! How shall I have a son when
no man has touched me?' He said: `Even so;
God creates what He wills. When He decrees a thing,
He but says to it, "Be!" and it is." [Quran 3:42-7]
Jesus (peace be upon him) was born miraculously
through the same power which had brought Adam
(peace be upon him) into being without a father:
"Truly, the likeness of Jesus unto Allaah is as
the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust,
and then said to him, `Be!' and he was." [ Quran 3:59 ]
During his prophetic mission, Jesus (peace be upon him)
was granted and performed many miracles.
The Qur’aan tells us that he said (interpretation of meaning):
"I have come to you with a sign from your
Lord: I make for you out of the clay,
as it were, the figure of a bird, and breathe
into it and it becomes a bird by Allaah’s leave.
And I heal the blind and the lepers, and I raise
the dead by Allaah’s leave." [Quran 3:49]
Other miracles include speaking soon after
birth in defense of his mother's piety.
God's other gifts to him included healing
the blind and the sick, reviving the dead,
and, most importantly, the message he was
carrying. These miracles were granted to
him by God to establish him as a prophet.
According to the Qur’aan, he was not
crucified, but only appeared so; instead,
Allaah raised him unto Heaven. (Quraan, Chapter Maryam)
Neither Muhammad (peace be upon him),
nor Jesus (peace be upon him), came to
change the basic doctrine of the belief in
one God, brought by earlier prophets,
but to confirm and renew it. In the Quran
Jesus (peace be upon him), is reported as saying that he came:
" To attest the law which was before me.
And to make lawful to you part of what was
forbidden you; I have come to you with
sign form your Lord, so fear God and obey me." [Quran 3:50
