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.

Muhammad plagiarized the Torah and the writings of the Apostles (the Gospels and epistles), added a variations here and there, dreamed up a few new ideas as he saw fit, replace Jesus with himself and Voilà! You have the Quran!

Mosque architecture was actually adapted from churches, so it is not too strange that they look alike.  I think there are various types of churches there.  The ones you are talking about may be catholic.

it's my understanding that the name "judas" has morphed over the centuries into "jew". since judas wasn't a good person, this word became associated with him and his betrayal of jesus gave early christians a reason to dislike the jewish people.

I thought that Muslims accepted the fact that Jesus was the Messiah. I don't know how that makes sense since they don't believe He was crucified and rose again on the third day, but then, I really don't know that much about Islam.

Read to understand my friend.\n\n[003:053] "Our Lord! We believe in what You have sent down, and we follow the Messenger ['Îsâ (Jesus)]; so write us down among those who bear witness (to the truth, i.e. Lâ ilâha illallâh – none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh)." \n\n[003:054] And they (disbelievers) plotted [to kill 'Îsâ (Jesus) ['alayhis-salâm]], and Allâh planned too. And Allâh is the Best of those who plan. \n\n[003:055] And (remember) when Allâh said: "O 'Îsâ (Jesus)! I will make you sleep and raise you to Myself and clear you [of the forged statement that 'Îsâ (Jesus) is Allâh's son] of those who disbelieve, and I will make those who follow you (monotheists, who worship none but Allâh) superior to those who disbelieve [in the Oneness of Allâh, or disbelieve in some of His Messengers, e.g. Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam], 'Îsâ (Jesus), Mûsâ (Moses), or in His Holy Books, e.g. the Taurât (Torah), the Injîl (Gospel), the Qur'ân] till the Day of Resurrection. Then you will return to Me and I will judge between you in the matters in which you used to dispute." \n\n[003:056] "As to those who disbelieve, I will punish them with a severe torment in this world and in the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers." \n\n[003:057] And as for those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh) and do righteous good deeds, Allâh will pay them their reward in full. And Allâh does not like the Zalimûn (polytheists and wrong doers). \n\n[003:058] This is what We recite to you (O Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam]) of the Verses and the Wise Reminder (i.e. the Qur'ân). \n\n[003:059] Verily, the likeness of 'Îsâ (Jesus) before Allâh is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: "Be!" – and he was. \n\n[003:060] (This is) the truth from your Lord, so be not of those who doubt. \n\n[003:061] Then whoever disputes with you concerning him ['Îsâ (Jesus)] after (all this) knowledge that has come to you [i.e. 'Îsâ (Jesus) being a slave of Allâh, and having no share in Divinity], say (O Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam]): "Come, let us call our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves – then we pray and invoke (sincerely) the Curse of Allâh upon those who lie." \n  \n \n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n(V.3:55) The advent (descent) of 'Îsâ (Jesus), [son of Maryam (Mary)] ['alayhis-salâm]. \na) Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllâhu 'anhu]: Allâh's Messenger [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam] said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, surely ['Îsâ (Jesus)], the son of Maryam (Mary) will shortly descend amongst you (Muslims), and will judge mankind justly by the law of the Qur'ân (as a just ruler); he will break the Cross and kill the pigs and there will be no Jîzyah* (i.e. taxation taken from non-Muslims). Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it, and a single prostration to Allâh (in prayer) will be better than the whole world and whatever is in it." Abu Hurairah added: "If you wish, you can recite (this Verse of the Qur'ân): "And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) but must believe in him [i.e. 'Îsâ (Jesus) ['alayhis-salâm] as a Messenger of Allâh and a human being] before his ['Îsâ (Jesus) ['alayhis-salâm] or a Jew's or a Christian's] death, and on the Day of Resurrection, he ['Îsâ (Jesus) ['alayhis-salâm]] will be a witness against them."

The Quran makes three references to the return of Jesus son of Mary (may peace be upon him) to the earth - i.e. his descent from the sky - in order to accomplish various tasks.\n\nTHE FIRST REFERENCE: is in Surah Nisaa’, verses (156-159). As for the context of these verses, Allah, the Exalted, mentions the fabrications of the Jews, their slander of Mary, their rejection of Faith, and claim that they killed Jesus son of Mary - the Messenger of Allah. Thereupon Allah, the Exalted, declares the falsity of these claims and says, "And because of their saying (boasting), ‘We killed Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah,’ - but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but it was made to appear to them so." [an-Nisaa’ 4:157] We have learned from the preceding sections about the disciple who resembled Jesus and voluntarily sacrificed and ransomed himself, as has been specifically stated by the leading scholars of Islam.\n\nSO WHAT EXACTLY HAPPEDNED THEN? Allah, the Exalted, raised Jesus son of Mary to the sky. His enemies, the Jews, failed to harm him, let alone kill and crucify him. This is a clear and unambiguous text that carries no room for another interpretation. It states clearly that Allah, the Exalted, raised Jesus to Himself - bodily and his soul - in order to save him from the Jews murdering and crucifying him. Allah, the Exalted, says in the Quran, "But Allah raised him up (with his body and soul) unto Himself; and Allah is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise." [an-Nisaa’ 4:158]\n\nSo, if anyone claims that only the soul was raised, it would be incorrect, as is shown from the two following perspectives.\n\nFIRSTLY, Allah made a mention of this raise in the context of refutation of the claim of the Jews that they killed the Christ. So, if it were that only the soul was raised, then that would actually mean an acknowledgment of the claim of the Jews that they killed the Christ - which is to remove his soul!\n\nSECONDLY, if it were true that only his soul was raised, there would remain no distinction for Jesus above the rest. For all Prophets (peace be upon them), and in fact all believing Muslims, have their souls raised to the sky upon their death. So, does there remain anything that distinguishes Jesus, for which Allah makes a special marked mention in the Quran that He raised him?\n\n\nAfter establishing this point, another Quranic verse follows in the same context of the ones that preceded. This one clearly bears evidence on another return of the Christ (peace be upon him) to the earth and that he will descend from the sky. The purpose of this is the crucial role he will play upon his return to the earth. Allah, the Exalted, says, "And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) but must believe in him (Jesus son of Mary as a Messenger of Allah and a human being) before his death. And on the Day of Resurrection, he will be a witness against them." [an-Nisaa’ 4:159] \n\nThe verse presents the message in a future tense, so it is with regards to the events to come after the raising of the Christ. It informs that some of the People of the Book will believe in the Christ. But when will that be? It will be upon his descent, his return and coming onto the earth once again. Imam Tabari, the renowned scholar of the Quranic exegesis (may Allah cover him in mercy), explained this. He said, “The meaning of the verse ‘And there is none of the people of the Scripture but must believe in him’, that is: in Jesus, ‘before his death’, that is: before the death of Jesus. It is explained as follows: that all of them will affirm and acknowledge him when he descends to kill the Antichrist, thereafter, all the religion will give way to only the one, which is the pure upright religion of Islam - the religion of Abraham (may the peace be him)." [See Tafsir at-Tabari 4:356-357].\n\nTHE SECOND REFERENCE in the Noble Quran to the imperative nature of the descent of Je

Jesus was NOT crucified. When the jews were searching for him, God made his betrayer look just like him, so the jews took this traitor and crucified him instead.\n\nThe Quraan says: "And because of their saying: We slew the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, Allah's messenger - they slew him not nor crucified him, but it appeared so unto them; and lo! those who disagree concerning it are in doubt thereof; they have no knowledge thereof save pursuit of a conjecture; they slew him not for certain."

According to the newly discovered gosple of Judas, that's exactly what happened.  According to that book, Judas did not betray Jesus as all, but merely did what Jesus told him to do.\n\nOf course, it's important to keep in mind that Judas and Jesus are both fictional characters.

Is it justified to kill people?  A picture is just a picture. I don't think that depicting Jesus wearing a bomb for a hat would disgrace him.  It would be a comment about his followers using bombs in his name, when everyone knows he was a man of peace.  It's called irony.

i have never heard of that but is it anymore odd than thinking jesus, a man who never even visited europe, was somehow european looking?  Odds are jesus looked more like Sadam Hussein or bin laden than he did the frail hippie looking figure most accept without question

good question\n\n\nIn the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. \n\n\n" The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was. "\n\n003.059

By the Name of God the Merciful the Compassionate,\nRegarding your first question, we believe that the God of Jesus peace be upon him is the same as the God of Mohammed peace be upon him. There is only one God, the creator of everything, the Sustainer, the Almighty. \n\nWhen I read the two paragraphs you posted, the first thing I thought of is that you really need to do some research. I'll give you some information regarding the issue of the Kaaba and of God's name which some claim was the name of a moon god. But first I would like to point out that the two paragraphs contradict each other; while the first says that it was Quraysh who destroyed the idols while the second says it was God's messenger Mohammed peace be upon him who destroyed them. The truth is that it was God's messenger peace be upon him who destroyed the idols and he left NO idols, not even one in the Kaaba.\n\n1- God's Name:\nThe tribe of Quraysh has controlled Mecca for many many years before God's messenger peace be upon him was even born. They were merchants and a prime time for their merchandise was when other tribes came to the Kaaba to visit and worship the idols there. This was one of the main reasons why Quraysh rejected the message of Islam: a message saying that God is everywhere, that He is one, and that the idols are powerless man-made stones that can neither benefit nor harm people meant the destruction of their economy.  ==>"When the Quarish tribe took control of Mecca, all the idols except Allah, the idol of their tribe, were destroyed" is completely wrong.\n\nQuraysh had no idol called Allah, the names of their three main idols are mentioned in the Noble Quran and they are Al-lat, Al-uzza, and Manat. The Quran also tells us of the claim of these idolaters that they only worshiped those idols to get then closer to God (Allah). Yes, the Arabs believed that God the creator existed and that He was beyond their capabilities to feel Him and they called Him Allah [Arabic: the one and only God. This word has no plural in Arabic contrary to the word ilah [plural aleha] which means a god]. In addition to their idolatry which is totally against Islam, the pre-Islamic Arabs did not believe in life after death.\n\nBut how did the Arabs know Allah? Mecca is the place where God's messenger Ibrahim (Abraham) left his son Ismael (Ishmael) peace be upon him and his mother. Ismael peace be upon him, the father of the Arabs and the first to speak Arabic was a messenger of God. A time before Islam came when the people of the area followed the religion of Ismael and his father peace be upon him and worshiped God alone who they called Allah. It was long after that, that the descendants of these people went astray and started worshiping idols, but they still knew God's name.\n\n2-The Kaaba:\nThe Arabs held the Kaaba as holy, and that's why they put their idols in it. But did you ask yourself why they gave that building all that holiness. The answer is because their ancestors held it holy as well. Though the descendants went astray and had skewed beliefs they still remembered that, it became a tradition.\n\nMuslims believe that the Kaaba was the first house of worship to be built on the earth to worship God. It was built by the angels and then rebuilt by Ibrahim and Ismael peace be upon them. We also believe that it is the place where Adam peace be upon him prostrated before God for repentance and was forgiven (we don't believe in the original sin). That's what makes the Kaaba holy for us and that's why God's messenger cleansed it from the idols and that's why God obliged Muslims to make pilgrimage to it at least once in their life times. When Muslims make pilgrimage to Mecca, they are not going for any stone but they are going there in obedience to God.\n\nAs for the black stone issue, God's messenger NEVER said that it had the power to take away man's sins. The only thing special about the s

O People of the Book!\nDo not go to extremes in your religion: nor say of Allah anything but the truth.\nVerily, Christ Jesus the son of Mary was no more than a messenger of Allah, and His Word which he bestowed upon Mary,\nAnd a Spirit proceeding from Him:\nso believe in Allah and his messengers.\nSay not "Trinity": desist: it will be better for you:\nFor your Allah is One God: \nGlory be to Him: \n(Far Exalted is He) above having \na son. To Him belongs all \nthings in the heavens and the earth. \nAnd enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs. \n(SURA NISAA) Holy Qur’ân 4:171\n\nThere is not a single unequivocal statement throughout the Bible, in all its 66 volumes of the Protestant versions, or in the 73 volumes of the Roman Catholic versions, where Jesus claims to be God or where he says "worship me". Nowhere does he say that he and God Almighty "are one" and "the same person."\n"Yes", say the Trinitarians, the worshippers of three gods in one God, and one God in three gods, "Jesus did claim to be God!"..WHERE??..nor is the word "Trinity" mentioned in the Bible\n\nThey quote "I and my father are one"\nactually this verse does not stop here..it continues and Jesus says to the 12 disciples..."My Father is in me and I in ye"..the same "One" is used so does that mean there are 14 Gods..NO!.One in what? In their Omniscience? In their Nature? In their Omnipotence? No! One in purpose! That once a believer has accepted faith, the Messenger sees to it that he remains in faith, and God Almighty also sees to it that he remains in faith. This is the purpose of the "Father" and the "son" and the "Holy Ghost" and of every man and every woman of faith.\n\nThey quote John Ch.1 "In the beginning was the God ; and the word was with God; and the word was God"..This is a fabrication of the original scripture....Replace all the "word" by "God"..if "the word was God"...it becomes: In the beginning was God; and God was with the God; and God was God!...does it make any sense??..NO! actually in the original scripture the word used is God and the second one used is god (small g) This god in Greek means a godly man..\n\nThey also quote ...."and God gave his only begotten son...".NEWS FLASH!!! The word begotten son is not their in the original manuscript ..it is an interpolation of "messenger"...revised by 32 Christians scholars of the highest eminence!\n\nTo make a long story short Jesus never claimed dovinity nor talked about trinity because trinity canot be..God canot be in three forms in the same time....(having different makeup consttuents)\n\nBut Jesus said:\n...All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." (Matthew 28:18)\n"...I cast out devils BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD then the kingdom of God is come unto you." (Matthew 12:28)\n"I CAN OF MY OWN SELF DO NOTHING " (John 5:30)\n"I WITH THE FINGER OF GOD cast out devils" (Luke 1 1:20)\nBorrowed Power\nThe "power" as he says is not his, "it is given unto me". Given by whom? By God, of course! Every action, every word he attributes to God.\n\n28. "I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand]."\n29. "My Father, who has given them to me, IS GREATER THEN ALL; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.." (John 10:29).\n\nGod canot be the trinity concept because the moment He would take human form, he ceases to be God;\n\nHope that answers the question;\nAnd Allah knows the best;\nMay peace, mercy and blessings of Allah be on the viewers\n\n"Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary:\n(it is) a statement of truth, about which\nthey (vainly) dispute.\n"It is not befitting to (the majesty of) Allah\n(God) that He should beget a son.

The Quran says:\nO 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) an apostle of Allah, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His apostles. 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. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs. 4:171

Yes it's possible..... because Allah is the Arabic word for God. It is also one of Allah's 99 names, and Allah is the very same God that christians and jews worship (there's only one)  Muslims believe in Jesus as a prophet the same as Abraham, Moses, Muhammad, and all the others.  His family is having a problem because Muslims worship God and God alone, with no son or partner. Muslims believe that worshipping Jesus as the son of God is polytheism, the biggest sin of all. ( the first commandment given to Moses says the same thing).
