Quote:Matthew 16:28 - Jesus says to his disciples, "There are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."
does he fulfill this promise ? NO HE DOES NOT,. wasn't that a lie/sin ?
A lie is "a false statement deliberately presented as being true". Jesus believed what he said to be true, therefore what he said wasn't a lie. But if we assume Jesus was referring to His return on the day of final judgement (an assumption not all Christians make), then he obviously made a mistake (which is not a sin).
Jesus also said:
"But about that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, not even the Son; only the Father." Mark 13:32
So, Jesus never claimed to know when the final judgement would take place.
In any case, we are discussing the Koran and hadith, not the Bible. What does the Bible have to do with the Muslim belief that Prophets are without sin??? Obviously, the Bible states the exact opposite: all people (except Jesus) have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God.

Here is a question to ponder:
Q: If a Muslim eats pork, has he made a mistake, or committed a sin?
