Jesus in the Glorious Quran
The Quran tells us many wonderful things about Jesus. As a result, believers in the Quran love Jesus, honor him and believe in him. In fact, no Muslim can be a Muslim unless he or she believes in Jesus, on whom be peace. The Quran says that Jesus was born of a virgin, that he spoke while he was still only a baby, that he healed the blind and the leper by God's leave and that he raised the dead by God's leave.

What then is the significance of these miracles?
First, the virgin birth. God demonstrates His power to create in every way. God created everyone we know from a man and a woman. But how about Adam, on whom be peace? God created him from neither a man nor a woman. And Eve from only a
man, without a woman. And finally,to complete the picture, God created Jesus from a woman,without a man.

What about the other miracles?
These were to show that Jesus was not acting on his own behalf, but that he was backed by God. The
Quran specifies that these miracles were performed by God's leave. This may be compared to the Book of Acts in the Bible, chapter 2, verse
22, where it says that the miracles were done by God to show that he approved of Jesus. Also, note that Jesus himself is recorded in the Gospel of John to have said: ‘I can do nothing of my own
authority' (5:30). The miracles, therefore, were done not by his own authority, but by God's authority.

What did Jesus teach?
The Quran tells us that Jesus came to teach the same basic message which was taught by previous
prophets from God – that we must shun every false god and worship only the One True God. Jesus
taught that he is the servant and messenger of the One True God, the God of Abraham.

These Quranic teachings can be compared with
the Bible (Mark 10:18; Matthew 26:39; John 14:28, 17:3, and 20:17) where Jesus teaches that the one
he worshipped is the only true God.
See also Matthew 12:18; Acts 3:13, and 4:27 where we find that his disciples knew him as ‘Servant of God’. The Quran tells us that some of the Israelites rejected Jesus, and conspired to kill him, but God rescued Jesus and raised himto Himself. God will cause Jesus to descend again, at which time Jesus
will confirm his true teachings and everyone will believe in him as he is and as the Quran teaches about him. Jesus is the Messiah. He is a word from God, and a spirit fromHim. He is honored in this world and in the hereafter, and he is one of those brought nearest to God.
Jesus was a man who spoke the truth which he heard from God.
This can be compared with the Gospel According John where Jesus says to the Israelites: ‘You are
determined to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God’ (John 8:40).

Zachariah believed in the virgin
birth and supported her. The elders accused
Mary of being a loose woman and having
touched another man while unmarried. In
response, Mary pointed to her son, telling
them to talk to him. They were angered at
this and thought she was mocking them, by
asking them to speak with an infant. It was
then that God made the infant Jesus speak
from the cradle and he spoke of his prophecy
for the first time. He said, which are verses
19:30-33 in the chapter of Mary in the
Quran:

He said: "I am indeed a servant
of Allah: He hath given me
revelation and made me a
prophet; And He hath made me blessed
wheresoever I be, and hath
enjoined on me Prayer and
Charity as long as I live;
(He) hath made me kind to my
mother, and not overbearing or
miserable;
So peace is on me the day I was
born, the day that I die, and the
day that I shall be raised up to
life (again)!"

A Comprehensive Listing of References to Jesus
('Isa) in the Qur'an

SURAH REFERENCE
2:87 We gave Jesus the son of Mary Clear
(Signs) and strengthened him with the holy
spirit.
2:136 We believe in Allah, and the revelation
given to us, and to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac,
Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses
and Jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from
their Lord: We make no difference between one
and another of them . . .
2:253 . . . To Jesus the son of Mary We gave
clear (Signs), and strengthened him with the
holy spirit.
3:45 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.
3:46 "He shall speak to the people in childhood
and in maturity. And he shall be (of the
company) of the righteous."
3:48 And Allah will teach him the Book and
Wisdom, the Law and the Gospel.
3:49 And (appoint him) a messenger to the
Children of Israel, (with this message): "I have
come to you, with a Sign from your Lord, in that
I make for you out of clay, as it were, the
figure of a bird, and breathe into it, and it
becomes a bird by Allah's leave: And I heal
those born blind, and the lepers, and I quicken
the dead, by Allah's leave; and I declare to you
what ye eat, and what ye store in your houses.
Surely therein is a Sign for you if ye did
believe."
3:50 (I have come to you), to attest the Law
which was before me. And to make lawful to you
part of what was (Before) forbidden to you; I
have come to you with a Sign from your Lord. So
fear Allah, and obey me.
3:52 When Jesus found Unbelief on their part He
said: "Who will be My helpers to (the work of)
Allah?"
3:55 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."
3:59 The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as
that of Adam . . .
3:84 . . . and in (the Books) given to Moses,
Jesus, and the prophets, from their Lord.
4:157 That they said (in boast), "We killed
Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of
Allah";-but they killed him not, nor crucified
him, but so it was made to appear to them, and
those who differ therein are full of doubts, with
no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to
follow, for of a surety they killed him not.
4:163 We have sent thee inspiration, as We sent
it to Noah and the Messengers after him: we
sent inspiration to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob
and the Tribes, to Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and
Solomon, and to David We gave the Psalms.
4:171 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.
4:172 Christ disdaineth nor to serve and worship
Allah . . .
5:17 In blasphemy indeed are those that say
that Allah is Christ the son of Mary.
5:46 And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the
son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come
before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was
guidance and light, and confirmation of the Law
that had come before him: a guidance and an
admonition to those who fear Allah.
5:72 They do blaspheme who say: "Allah is Christ
the son of Mary." But said Christ: "O Children
of Israel! worship Allah, my Lord and your
Lord." Whoever joins other gods with Allah,-
Allah will forbid him the garden, and the Fire
will be his abode.
5:75 Christ the son of Mary was no more than a
messenger; many were the messengers that
passed away before him. His mother was a
woman of truth. They had both to eat their
(daily) food.
5:78 Curses were pronounced on those among the
Children of Israel who rejected Faith, by the
tongue of David and of Jesus the son of Mary:
because they disobeyed and persisted in
excesses.
5:110 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.'
5:112 Behold! the disciples, said: "O Jesus the
son of Mary! can thy Lord send down to us a
table set (with viands) from heaven?" Said
Jesus: "Fear Allah, if ye have faith."
5:114 Said Jesus the son of Mary: "O Allah our
Lord! Send us from heaven a table set (with
viands), that there may be for us-for the first
and the last of us-a solemn festival and a sign
from thee; and provide for our sustenance, for
thou art the best Sustainer (of our needs)."
5:116 Allah will say: "O Jesus the son of Mary!
Didst thou say unto men, worship me and my
mother as gods in derogation of Allah'?" He will
say: "Glory to Thee! never could I say what I
had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing,
thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest
what is in my heart . . ."
6:85 And Zakariya and John, and Jesus and Elias:
all in the ranks of the righteous.
9:30 The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the
Christians call Christ the son of Allah.
9:31 They take their priests and their
anchorites to be their lords in derogation of
Allah, and (they take as their Lord) Christ the
son of Mary; yet they were commanded to
worship but One Allah: there is no god but He.
Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from having
the partners they associate (with Him).
19:19 He said: "Nay, I am only a messenger
from thy Lord, (to announce) to thee the gift
of a holy son."
19:20 She said: "How shall I have a son, seeing
that no man has touched me, and I am not
unchaste?"
19:21 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."
19:22 So she conceived him, and she retired with
him to a remote place.
19:27 At length she brought the (babe) to her
people, carrying him (in her arms). They said: "O
Mary! truly an amazing thing hast thou
brought!"
19:30 He said: "I am indeed a servant of Allah:
He hath given me revelation and made me a
prophet."
19:31 "And He hath made me blessed
wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me
Prayer and Charity as long as I live."
19:32 "(He) hath made me kind to my mother,
and not overbearing or miserable."
19:33 "So peace is on me the day I was born, the
day that I die, and the day that I shall be
raised up to life (again)!"
19:34 Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary: (it is) a
statement of truth, about which they (vainly)
dispute.
19:88 They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has
begotten a son!"
19:91 That they should invoke a son for (Allah)
Most Gracious.
19:92 For it is not consonant with the majesty
of (Allah) Most Gracious that He should beget a
son.
21:91 And (remember) her who guarded her
chastity: We breathed into her of Our spirit, and
We made her and her son a sign for all peoples.
23:50 And We made the son of Mary and his
mother as a Sign: We gave them both shelter on
high ground, affording rest and security and
furnished with springs.
33:7 And remember We took from the prophets
their covenant: As (We did) from thee: from
Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus the son of
Mary: We took from them a solemn covenant.
42:13 The same religion has He established for
you as that which He enjoined on Noah-the which
We have sent by inspiration to thee-and that
which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus:
Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in
religion, and make no divisions therein: to those
who worship other things than Allah, hard is the
(way) to which thou callest them. Allah chooses
to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to
Himself those who turn (to Him).
43:57 When (Jesus) the son of Mary is held up as
an example, behold, thy people raise a clamour
thereat (in ridicule)!
43:61 And (Jesus) shall be a Sign (for the
coming of) the Hour (of Judgment): therefore
have no doubt about the (Hour), but follow ye
Me: this is a Straight Way.
43:63 When Jesus came with Clear Signs, he said:
"Now have I come to you with Wisdom, and in
order to make clear to you some of the (points)
on which ye dispute: therefore fear Allah and
obey me."
57:27 We sent after them Jesus the son of
Mary, and bestowed on him the Gospel; and We
ordained in the hearts of those who followed
him Compassion and Mercy . . .
61:6 And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary,
said: "O Children of Israel! I am the messenger
of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law
(which came) before me, and giving Glad Tidings
of a Messenger to come after me, whose name
shall be Ahmad." But when he came to them with
Clear Signs, they said, "this is evident sorcery!"
61:14 O ye who believe! Be ye helpers of Allah:
As said Jesus the son of Mary to the Disciples,
"Who will be my helpers to (the work of) Allah?"
Said the disciples, "We are Allah's helpers!" then
a portion of the Children of Israel believed, and
a portion disbelieved: But We gave power to
those who believed, against their enemies, and
they became the ones that prevailed.

Like all prophets in Islam, Jesus is considered
a Muslim (i.e., one who submits to the will of
God), as he preached that his followers
should adopt the "straight path" as
commanded by God. Traditionally, Islam
teaches the rejection of the Trinitarian
Christian view that Jesus was God incarnate
or the son of God. The Quran says that Jesus
himself never claimed to be the Son of God,
and it furthermore indicates that Jesus will
deny having ever claimed divinity at the Last
Judgment, and God will vindicate him.
Islamic texts forbid the association of
partners with God ( shirk ), emphasizing a
strict notion of monotheism ( tawhīd). An
alternative interpretation of this theology is
held by Messianic Muslims.
Numerous titles are given to Jesus in the
Quran and in Islamic literature , the most
common being al-Masī ("the Messiah " ).
Jesus is also, at times, called "Seal of the
Israelite Prophets", because, in general
Muslim belief, Jesus was the last prophet
sent by God to guide the Children of Israel.
Jesus is traditionally understood in Islam to
have been a precursor to Muhammad, and is
believed by Muslims to have foretold the
latter's coming; however, this is a traditional
understanding and not declared in the Quran.
Jesus is unique for being the only prophet in
Islam who neither married nor had any
children.Muslims believe that Jesus will
return to earth near the Day of Judgment to
restore justice and to defeat al-Masih ad-
Dajjal ("the false messiah", also known as the
Antichrist). Jesus will not return as a
new prophet; Prophet Muhammad was the
final prophet, but will continue from where
he left off at the time of his ascension
