Jesus never claimed to be a prophet. He claimed to be God Incarnate and must be accepted or rejected on that basis. Mohammed cannot be a prophet of God because he was not born of the line of Jacob. The line of Ishmael was promised earthly kingdoms, not God's priesthood.

I'm not sure exactly what you said because I do not know Islam and the Quran well enough.\n\nHowever, I do get bent when Taimur keeps saying "Jesus the Prophet peace be unto him."\n\nEither you believe Jesus was God or you believe he was a lunatic or liar. What Jesus said about Himself left no room for middle ground.\n\nIt's illogical to call Jesus a prophet when He claimed to be God. He said He would take away the sin of the world. A mere man, even if a prophet, has no power to do this. Jesus claimed to be God.\n\nSo call Him God or call Him a liar or lunatic. Just quite with the false ecumenism by calling Him a prophet 'pbuh'

Not true.   The Jewish religion believes that Jesus Christ was a great prophet, but not the Son of God.  The Bible says otherwise.

Not everyone believes in Jesus, people choose religions which are relevant to their lives.  Many people don't identify with Christianity, whereas the teachings of Mohammed seem to attract a lot of people.

I am sure it would have been much more controversial if Rolling Stone called him Mohammed rather than Jesus. Christians have always had art with people in them. Muslims have always said it was wrong to have any art with god or the prophet in it.

Jesus (pbah) is only a prophet not the son of God

Greetings,\n   Of course you are correct in the bible there are many verses concerned with there being false prophets sent into the world to confuse and delude christians from the true religion.\n   NOW scince you are going into the wrong book a question begs to be answered and that is;How can they say that mohammed is the brother of Jesus Christ when he(mohammed) was born nearly 400 years later after Jesus died and was not from the same family tree as Jesus?\n   You need to get back to the true religion and start trying to show your friends that going into abuilding and blowing up little babies and women that are just trying to survive is totally wrong and that Jesus never remotely tried to get his followers to do any such thing but admonished His believers to love their enemies.

NOPE HE IS NOT THE SON OF MAN.. JESUS WAS JUST A JEWISH GUY THAT RAN AROUND DOING TORAH TEACHINGS AND WAS GREATLY MISUNDERSTOOD.

No he wasn`t as you said according to Quran & the muslim belief\nwe muslims say that the one who was crucified is Judas (the one who betrayed him) we say that god made Judas look like Jesus so the Romans arrested him not Jesus & Jesus was raised by god to heaven & he will return back to unite the muslims & christians to one belief & to fight the anti-christ\n\nSee the sites below:-\nhttp://www.jesuswillreturn.com/\nhttp://www.harunyahya.com/books/faith/did_not_die/jesus_did_not_die_01.php\nhttp://islamtomorrow.com/articles/

We are instructed by the Noble Qura'an to answer back with the word "Peace" when addressed by ignorants, so again: Peace.\n\n#################################\nMuhammed A – Z\nMay Allah Exalt his Mention\nBy Yusuf Estes, Former Christian Preacher\n\nMuhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Abdul Muttalib\nBorn 570 C.E. (Christian Era); died 633 C.E.\n\nThe following is based on books, manuscripts, texts and actual eyewitness accounts, too numerous to mention herein, preserved in original form throughout the centuries by both Muslims and non-Muslims.\n\nMany people today are discussing Prophet Muhammad, may Allah exalt his mention. Who was he exactly? What did he teach? Why was he loved so much by some and hated so much by others? Did he live up to his claims? Was he a holy man? Was he a prophet of God? What is the truth about this man?You be the judge.\nHere are the facts as narrated by thousands of people, many of whom knew him personally.\n*He was born to a noble tribe to the lineage of the leaders of Makkah.\n*His name comes from the Arabic root "hamd" and literally means "praised one." People at his time and until this very moment, praise him many times per day, may Allah exalt his mention.\n*He never fell into the common practice of his tribesmen to worship statues, idols or man-made "gods."\n*He believed that God was truly One God, and as such, He was to be worshipped alone, without any other "gods" beside Him.\n*He held the Name of God in the highest of reverence and never took God's Name in vain or for any vain glorious purpose.\n*He despised false worship and all of the complexities and degradation to which it leads.\n*He adhered to the Commandments of Almighty God, just as prophets of old had done in the past.\n*He never committed adultery, and he forbade others from doing it.\n*He forbade usury and interest on money lending, as Jesus, may Allah exalt his mention, had done centuries before him.\n*He never gambled and did not allow it.\n*He never drank alcohol or strong drink; even though it was a very normal thing for people of his time and place.\n*He did not engage in gossip and used to turn away from hearing anything related to it.\n*He fasted for days at a time to be closer to Almighty God and away from the narrowness of worldly attractions.\n*He taught that Jesus, may Allah exalt his mention, was the immaculate conception and miracle birth of Mary, and that she was among the best creation of Almighty God.\n*He insisted even to the Jews of Medina, that Jesus, may Allah exalt his mention, was the Messiah, the Christ, the one predicted to come in their Torah (Old Testament).\n*He said Jesus, may Allah exalt his mention, did many miracles by the permission of Almighty God, curing the lepers, restoring sight to the blind and even bringing a dead man back to life.\n*He stated clearly that Jesus, may Allah exalt his mention, was not dead, rather Almighty God had raised him up.\n*He foretold that Jesus, may Allah exalt his mention, is going to return again in the Last Days to lead the true believers in a victory over the evil and unrighteous people, and he will destroy the Anti-Christ.\n*He commanded the payment of charity to the poor and he was the defender and protector of widows, orphans and the wayfarers.\n*He ordered people to unite with their families and honor the ties of kinship and he restored relationships between family members.\n*He required his followers to engage only in lawful marriage relationships with women, and forbade sex outside of Almighty God's Ordinance.\n*He insisted on giving women their proper rights, dowries, inheritance and property.\n*His patience and humble attitude were exemplary and all who knew him had to admit to these virtues.\nA. He never lied, never broke a trust never bore false witness, and he was famous with all the tribes in Makkah and was known as: "The Truthful" (Al-Ameen).\nB. He never once engaged in sex outside of m

Jews never recognised JESUS as Messiah & Christans never recognised Muhammed as true prophet but Muslims recognised all the prophets of God.There are clear signs of his peophecy in bible but still they say he is not a prophet\nIsaiah's vision: \n\nIsaiah saw a vision of two riders. \n\n"And he saw a chariot [with] a couple of horsemen, a chariot of as-ses, [and] a chariot of camels .." (Isaiah 21:7) \n\nWho was the rider upon the as-s? Every Sunday school student will tell us that this was a prophecy of Jesus (peace be upon him), as stated in John: \n\n"And Jesus, when he had found a young as-s, sat thereon; as it is written," (John 12:14) \n\nbut who is the promised prophet who would ride the camel? If it is not Muhammad (peace be upon him) then this prophecy has yet to be fulfilled. Let us read on... \n\n"And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, [with] a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground." (Isaiah 21:9) \n\nBabylon did indeed fall before Islam and the Islamic nation under the guidance of Muhammad (peace be upon him) did indeed succeed in eradicating the worship of idols from Babylon replacing it with the worship of God alone. In fact, the Muslims were the only believers in the God of Isaiah to ever succeed in fulfilling this prophesy. \n\n"The burden upon Arabia ..." (Isaiah 21:13) \n\nWhat does the word "burden" mean? Let us ask the Scofield Study Bible: \n\n"…which also means an oracle is a word sometimes used in the prophetical writings to indicate a divine message of judgment" (Scofield Study Bible New King James Version, note 1, p. 792) \n\nSo the Muslims of Arabia (and subsequently Muslims everywhere) would be assigned the burden of God's message. \n\n"The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled. For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war" (Isaiah 21:14-15) \n\nIn "The Dictionary of the Bible," bearing the Nihil Obstat, Imprimatur, and Imprimi Potest (official Church seals of approval), by John McKenzi, we read that "Tema" is: \n\n"a place name and tribal name of Arabia; a son of Ishmael.... The name survives in Teima, an oasis of the part of the Arabian desert called the Nefud in N Central Arabia." \n\nThis word, Tema, is the name of the ninth son of Ishmael (the father of the Arabs), in Genesis 25:13-15 we read: \n\n"And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah" (Genesis 25:13-15). \n\nStrong's concordance tells us that this name was also applied to the land settled by Tema the son of Ishmael. It goes on to explain how this word is "probably of foreign derivation". Indeed, this word, Teima, is an Arabic word which means "Barren desert". It remains the name of a city in the Arabian peninsula just north of "Al-Madinah Al-Munawarah," or "Madinah" for short (Please see Map 1, page 491). Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions were given sanction to migrate. They departed Makkah during the night and left all of their possessions behind. Upon reaching Madinah they were greeted by its citizens with open arms and Muhammad (peace be upon him) assigned each one of the Muhajireen (citizens of Makkah) to one of the Ansar (citizens of Madinah) to house and feed them until they could strike out on their own. This became the first year of the Arab "Hijra" (Emigration) calendar used in Islamic countries to this day. \n\n"For thus hath the LORD said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an

Stansky is pretty much right. Isa is not Jesus and Islamic mentions of Jesus are not the true Jesus of the Bible. Islam says there is a Jesus but they do not believe He is the Son of God so theire teachings about Him are false. The true Jesus the Son of God whom the Bible teaches about will return to Zion which is an Old Testament name for Jerusalem. He will return at the end of the tribulation and set foot on the Mount of Olives which is in Jerusalem (Zion)When Jesus returns He will set up His kingdom on earth and will reign. After a thousand years satan will lead a final rebellion which God will crush and then the day of judgment will come and Jesus will judge.

it says that jesus was a prophet.and that his mother was virgin mary.but he did not burn on a cross.god(allah) made another man look like jesus and he sent the real jesus to the heavens.\n\nMuslims revere Jesus as a prophet, but not the Son of God\nMuslims honor and respect Jesus, son of Mary (peace be upon him and all of God's prophets).  Muslims believe that he was one in a long line of honorable prophets, who taught his people to worship and obey the One True Lord, the Creator.  The Qur'an describes him:\n\nHe [Jesus] was no more than a servant.We granted Our favor to him,and we made him an example to the Children of Israel....\n\nWhen Jesus came with clear signs, he said,"Now have I come to you with Wisdom,and in order to make clear to yousome of the points on which you dispute.Therefore, fear Allah and obey me.\n\nFor Allah, He is my Lord and your Lord,so worship Him.This is a Straight Way."\n\n(Qur'an:  Al-Zukhruf 43:59, 63-64)\n\nOf all the prophets, Jesus is probably the most written about in the Qur'an.  Various stories in the Islamic text talk about his miraculous birth, his ministry, his disciples, and the message that he brought to his people.  Muslims always speak of Jesus with respect, and "Issa" (the Arabic rendition of his name) is a common given name in the Muslim world.\n\nThe Qur'an makes it very clear that Jesus was a prophet, chosen by God to teach his people, but not associated with nor part of God Himself.  He performed miracles, by the grace and power of God alone.  He of himself could do nothing -- all of his glory pointed back to the One Almighty God.\n\nMuslims therefore reject the notion of the Trinity that is common in most Christian denominations today.  Islam adheres to a very strict monotheism, and considers such a theology to be idolatrous.\n\nAdditionally, Islam teaches that God is Merciful and forgives all sins, without the need for a Saviour or blood sacrifice of any kind.  Therefore, Muslims reject the idea that all of mankind is "saved" by any one creed or sacrifice.  In Islam, each person is judged mercifully by God, Who created us and knows our hearts and weaknesses.  While Muslims do not feel that their fate in the Hereafter is "guaranteed" (as many Christians would say), they do not despair -- for the Mercy of Allah is without measure.\n\nIn the end, Muslims believe that the message Jesus preached was one and the same as the message that all of the prophets brought to their people:  Worship Almighty God, and Him Alone.  Have faith, and live your life according to that faith.\n\nhttp://islam.about.com/cs/faith/a/bl_jesus.htm
