*Jesus In Islam*

Muslim’s beliefs concerning Jesus peace be upon him:

1. ‘Eesa was not a god or the son of God as the Christians claim. 
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 
“Surely, they have disbelieved who say: ‘Allaah is the Messiah [‘Eesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary).’”

The fact that Jesus performed miracles does not mean that he was anything more than a messenger of God. In fact, many Messengers performed miracles by the permission of God, so as to demonstrate the authenticity of the Messenger.

“He [‘Eesa (Jesus)] said: ‘Verily, I am a slave of Allaah, He has given me the Scripture and made me a Prophet’”

2. We believe that ‘Eesa was born from the Virgin Maryam with no father, and that is not impossible for Allaah Who, when He wills a thing, says “Be!” and it is. And what clearly proves this is the creation of Adam, Allah created him without a father or a mother..    

Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “Verily, the likeness of ‘Eesa (Jesus) before Allaah is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: ‘Be!’ — and he was”

3.Muslims believe that Jesus (PBUH) was born to Virgin Mary (PBUH)  miraculously. There is mention of Jesus’ birth in two places in Quran.

4. We believe that he did not die? and his enemies the Jews did not kill him, rather Allaah saved him from them and raised him up to heaven alive?. Meaning, He was neither killed, nor crucified
instead, he was raised up by Allah to heaven. In fact, Allah gave someone else Jesus’ appearance, causing everyone to believe that Jesus was crucified.

5. We believe that he will come back down at the end of time ?and will disprove the claim of his enemies the Jews that they killed him, and will disprove the claim of the Christians that he is God or the son of God, and he will not accept anything from them but Islam. So He will eventually return to earth  towards the end of the world, rule by Muhammad’s law  then he will die and be buried, and will eventually be resurrected, like all human beings

As the Qur’an states, “From it [i.e., the earth] We created you, and into it We will return you, and from it We will extract you another time.” (Quran , 20:55)

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “By the One in Whose hand is my soul, soon the son of Maryam will descend among you [according to another report: the Hour will not begin until the son of Maryam descends among you] as a just judge. He will break the cross, kill the pigs and abolish the jizyah, and money will become abundant until no one will accept it.”
