Surah 5:75: The Messiah, son of
Marium is but a messenger;
messengers before him have
indeed passed away; and his mother
was a truthful woman; they both used
to eat food. See how We make the
communications clear to them, then
behold, how they are turned away.
(Shakir)

Surah 3:144: And Muhammad is no
more than a messenger; the
messengers have already passed
away before him; if then he dies or
is killed will you turn back upon your
heels? (Shakir)

The first Surah clearly states that all
messengers before Jesus had died. A
fact that Muslims will not deny. And the
second Surah states that all messengers
before Muhammad have also passed
away in death. Islam teaches that no
prophet arose between Jesus and
Muhammad. Thus, the immediate
messenger before Muhammad was
Jesus. As such, the second Surah seems
to specifically point to the fact that Jesus
too had died. In Arabic, the term for
messengers in the above two Surahs is
“al-rasul” which literally means “the
messengers.” According to grammatical
rules of classic Arabic, owing to the prefix “al” (the), the word messengers in the above two verses really means all
messengers.

But brother, the wording "qad khalat" does not mean to die, but passed or somethin lyk dat (like passed leaders for example...jonathan is a passed leader now...although it can b said such since they're no more in existence now.

SalC:
God bless you too dear. I am a sister though

mustymatic:
And brother "qad khalat" does not specifically means to die, but- indeed hav passed. just like in Nigeria now, leaders have passed before buhari does not mean they're all dead...although some have died....so your argument does not hold. simple

SalC:
Apprentice ke? All along I've used the word companion for them and not apprentice. Non of them is a disciple of to the other. They are co-preachers.

So far you've seen you started a topic you don't know jack about.

Next time study well before posting.

SalC:
Smh see kweshion chai.

Jesus had 12 apostles and many disciples.
Neither Paul nor Barnabas was among these 12 apostles.

Paul was the one who later referred to himself as an apostle and that doesn't mean he is among the twelve.

Neither the Bible nor paul nor Barnabas himself ever referred to himself as an apostle.

So saying Barnabas was an apostle and Jesus instructed him to write his gospel sounds crazy.

If there are people who were with Jesus all along and so write about him first hand, it should be those among the 12.

If you noticed, Paul himself never wrote first hand account of Jesus' life but more of visionary accounts or the ones he read.

SalC:
Now I am wondering if you even took time to read up on the life of the real Barnabas.

The real Barnabas is a Hebrew who lived his later life and died in the Island of Cyprus. Cyprus has always been and is still in the present day Greece and a Greek speaking land. Even his relic were later discovered under a cherry tree in Cyprus. There is no record of him going to Spain or knowing the spanish language. If there is a language he should know, it should be greek and not spanish.

On the other hand your gospel of Barnabas was found to be written in Spanish and italian not in Hebrew or Greek that the real Barnabas would have written it if he were to be the author.

Except maybe you are going to show me any proof he knew Spanish in his lifetime.
