5 THINGS THAT MUSLIMS BELIEVE ABOUT JESUS IN ISLAM
1. HE IS A PROMINENT FIGURE,
JESUS, MARY, AND THE ANGEL GABRIEL ARE ALL PROMINENT CHARACTERS IN THE QUR'AN (AS ARE ADAM, NOAH, ABRAHAM, MOSES, AND A BUNCH OF OTHER BIBLE CHARACTERS).
2. HE WILL RETURN TO EARTH,
MUSLIMS BELIEVE THAT JESUS (CALLED "ISA" IN ARABIC) WAS A PROPHET OF GOD AND WAS BORN TO A VIRGIN (MARY). THEY ALSO BELIEVE HE WILL RETURN TO EARTH BEFORE THE DAY OF JUDGMENT TO RESTORE JUSTICE AND DEFEAT AL-MASIH AD-DAJJAL. OR "THE FALSE MESSIAH" ALSO KNOWN AS THE ANTICHRIST. ALL OF THIS MAY SOUND PRETTY FAMILIAR TO MANY CHRISTIANS.
3. MARYAM MOTHER OF ISA,
MARY (CALLED "MARYAM" IN ARABIC) HAS AN ENTIRE CHAPTER IN THE QUR'AN NAMED FOR HER THE ONLY CHAPTER IN THE QUR'AN NAMED FOR A FEMALE FIGURE. IN FACT, MARY IS THE ONLY WOMAN TO BE MENTIONED BY NAME IN THE ENTIRE QUR'AN. AS NOTED IN THE STUDY QURAN, OTHER FEMALE FIGURES ARE IDENTIFIED ONLY BY THEIR RELATION TO OTHERS. SUCH AS THE WIFE OF ADAM AND THE MOTHER OF MOSES, OR BY THEIR TITLE, SUCH AS THE QUEEN OF SHEBA MARY IS MENTIONED MORE TIMES IN THE QUR'AN THAN IN THE ENTIRE NEW TESTAMENT OF THE BIBLE.
4. MIRACLES,
MUSLIMS BELIEVE THAT JESUS PERFORMED MIRACLES: THE QUR'AN DISCUSSES SEVERAL OF JESUS'S MIRACLES, INCLUDING GIVING SIGHT TO THE BLIND, HEALING LEPERS, RAISING THE DEAD, AND BREATHING LIFE INTO CLAY BIRDS.
5. HE SPOKE AS AN INFANT,
THE STORY OF JESUS'S BIRTH AS TOLD IN THE QUR'AN IS ALSO THE STORY OF HIS FIRST MIRACLE, WHEN HE SPOKE AS AN INFANT IN THE CRADLE AND DECLARED HIMSELF TO BE A PROPHET OF GOD.
It's that time of the year where we need to platform what we as Muslims believe about Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) a.k.a Prophet Isa!
What are some other things that we believe about our Prophet Isa? Let us know in the comments.
