🔵 The Prophet Jesus peace be upon him (Eesa alai-hiss-salaam) in Islam: 🔹Many are unaware that the true spirit of reverence which Muslims display towards Jesus (peace be upon him) and his mother Mary, which springs from the fountainhead of their faith as prescribed in the Holy Quran. 🔹Most do not know that a Muslim does not take the name of Jesus (peace be upon him), without saying Isa or Issa or Eesa (alai-hiss-salaam - means: peace be upon him). 🔹Many also do not know that in the Holy Quran Jesus (peace be upon him) is mentioned by name twenty-five times. For example, God says in the Holy Quran: 📖 We gave Jesus the son of Mary Clear (Signs) and strengthened him with the holy spirit. .. Holy Quran 2:87 📖 Behold! the angels said: O Mary! Allah gives thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honor in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah. .. Holy Quran 3:45 📖 Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) an apostle of Allah .. Holy Quran 4:171 📖 And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come before him .. Holy Quran 5:46 📖 And Zakariya and John, and Jesus and Elias: all in the ranks of the righteous: .. Holy Quran 6:85 🔷 The Quranic Titles of Jesus Jesus (peace be upon him) is mentioned by name in twenty-five places in the Holy Quran. He is spoken of as the word of God, as the spirit of God, as a Sign of God, and numerous other epithets of honor spread over fifteen different chapters. In the Holy Quran he is also addressed with respect as: 🔹Ibne Maryam - son of Mary; 🔹Masi (Heb) Messiah - translated as Christ; 🔹Abd-ullah servant of Allah; 🔹Rasul -Ullah - Messenger of Allah. The Holy Quran honors this great Messenger of God, and over the past fourteen hundred years Muslims continue to hold Jesus as a symbol of truth. 🔷 Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was always very respectful towards the Christians. According to Islamic historians (- Ibn e Saad and Ibn e Hisham).There was a delegation of Byzantine Christians lead by a bishop by the name of Zqyd al-Usquf, came to discuss a number of issues with Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). When the time of their prayer came, they asked the Prophet if they could do their worship in the mosque of the Prophet. He answered, 📜Conduct your service here in the mosque. It is a place dedicated to God. We should never ridicule the religious beliefs of others, no matter how much we disagree with them. God says in the Quran: 📖 And insult not those whom they worship besides God, lest they insult God wrongfully without knowledge. Thus We have made fair-seeming to each people its own doings; then to their Lord is their return and He shall then inform them of all that they used to do. Holy Quran, 6:108
