So do you (as a Muslim) believe that Jesus was born to a virgin named Mary like Christians do?Born to Mary, prophet of God, didn't die on the cross, will die, is returning. There's more but the most important thing is that Jesus is not God but a prophet whose message from God is that God is one and in harmony with the things tools e to Muhammad.
I butchered that I'm sure.
I'm not a Muslim I just studied under some for awhile when I was contemplating a reversion. My belief is opposed to that which the Qur'an espouses.So do you (as a Muslim) believe that Jesus was born to a virgin named Mary like Christians do?
thank you. that really helped! 0oqueen semiramis - nimrod - tammuz
That's pretty much what I believeJesus (Issa) was born by immaculate conception to the virgin mother Mary. Was a real human, a prophet and a man (not God or the son of God) who performed miracles on earth.
So Muslims also believe that he will return at the end of time? That really is interesting!Was taken to heaven by God almighty and will return again to lead the victorious, final conflict against the anti-Christ. We believe he will reject the cross as a symbol of himself or God.
You seem like a pretty cool dude and have a thirst for knowledge, thats excellent!That's pretty much what I believe

Here is a great article explaining Jesus in Islam by one of the great scholars of Exegesis - Ibn Kathir: https://www.islamawareness.net/Prophets/isa.htmlI don't want to interrupt the generally Islamic flow here other than to point out that Jesus death and resurrection are not without factual evidence...
"The historical evidence for the resurrection of Christ is very good. Scholars such as William Lane Craig, J.P. Moreland, Gary Habermas, and others have done an especially good job of detailing that evidence.1 It is the aim of this article to offer a sort of synthesis of some of their key points and show the strength of the historical evidence for the resurrection of Christ."

...the faith of Islam came with views quite different from that of the extend gospels with regards to both the end of Jesus and his nature.
The Glorious Qur'an affirms that Allah the Exalted did not permit the people of Israel to kill Jesus or crucify him. What happened was that Allah saved him from his enemies and raised him to heaven. They never killed Jesus, they killed someone else....
We believe he was taken directly to heaven, others believe he died on the cross and was then resurrected. Either way, God almighty recalled him and Jesus will return to lead the victorious charge over the forces of the anti-Christ.I don't want to interrupt the generally Islamic flow here other than to point out that Jesus death and resurrection are not without factual evidence...
