Jesus In Islam

[umm Zachariah]

Assalamu aleikum,


If you allow me I will continue on the thread with thoughts about Isa, Jesus, pbuh in Islam.


He was sent as a sign


''He said: "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us':It is a matter (so) decreed."
The Qur'an 19:21


That he was born sinless, the Muslim beleif is that everyone is born sinless


He said: "Nay, I am only a messenger from thy Lord, (to announce) to thee the gift of a holy son.''
The Qur'an 19:19


That he was a servant of Allah, SWT


"And He hath made me blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me Prayer and Charity as long as I live.''
The Qur'an19:31


His mother, Maryam, Mary was given glad tidings of the coming of Isa, Jesus, pbuh by the angel Jibreel, Gabriel


''Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah''
The Qur'an 3:45


That he was born by a virgin


''She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?" He said: "Even so: Allah createth what He willeth: When He hath decreed a plan, He but saith to it, 'Be,' and it is!''
The Qur'an 3:47


That he perfomed many miracles


''Then will Allah say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Recount My favour to thee and to thy mother. Behold! I strengthened thee with the holy spirit, so that thou didst speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. Behold! I taught thee the Book and Wisdom, the Law and the Gospel and behold! thou makest out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, by My leave, and thou breathest into it and it becometh a bird by My leave, and thou healest those born blind, and the lepers, by My leave. And behold! thou bringest forth the dead by My leave. And behold! I did restrain the Children of Israel from (violence to) thee when thou didst show them the clear Signs, and the unbelievers among them said: 'This is nothing but evident magic.' ''
The Qur'an 5:110


That he was a messenger, a spirit proceeding from Him


''O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His messengers. Say not "Trinity" : desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah: Glory be to Him: (far 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.''
The Qur'an 4:171


That he ascended to Him,


''Behold! Allah said: "O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow thee superior to those who reject faith, to the Day of Resurrection: Then shall ye all return unto me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute.''
The Qur'an 3:55


There are more but at least here are some points about who he is in Islam.
