I love moslems for the way they handle their dead. Rich or poor, royal or common, all are unified by death. All flesh is grass, and all the glory of man but the flower of a grass. Christians understand this, but moslems preach it.

I seconded you in that regards @ Metu, but truely, I never knew this woman was a muslim till her death.
To live and die a muslim is a huge wastage of life. Only those in Christ Jesus can rest in peace after death.
All your achievments, personality, education, connections, positions, experiences, wisdom and understanding etc… Will immediately fades into insignificance when you die without Christ.

I am not here to argue but to clear your presumption that Muslims do not believe in Jesus Christ. Yes, we do and regard him (may the peace and blessings of God Br upon him). Here are few Quran verses that attests to this:
1.Quran 2:136
Say (O Muslims), “We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma’il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Ya’qub (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat [the twelve sons of Ya’qub (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Musa (Moses) and ‘Iesa (Jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam).”
2.2.87
And indeed, We gave Musa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession of Messengers. And We gave ‘Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), clear signs and supported him with Ruh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel)]. Is it that whenever there came to you a Messenger with what you yourselves desired not, you grew arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed.
Q3.45-71.
And indeed, We gave Musa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession of Messengers. And We gave ‘Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), clear signs and supported him with Ruh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel)]. Is it that whenever there came to you a Messenger with what you yourselves desired not, you grew arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed.
45. (Remember) when the angels said: “O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allah gives you the glad tidings of a Word [“Be!” – and he was! i.e. ‘Iesa (Jesus) the son of Maryam (Mary)] from Him, his name will be the Messiah ‘Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), held in honour in this world and in the Hereafter, and will be one of those who are near to Allah.”
46. “He will speak to the people in the cradle and in manhood, and he will be one of the righteous.”
47. She said: “O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me.” He said: “So (it will be) for Allah creates what He wills. When He has decreed something, He says to it only: “Be!” and it is.
48. And He (Allah) will teach him [‘Iesa (Jesus)] the Book and Al-Hikmah (i.e. the Sunnah, the faultless speech of the Prophets, wisdom, etc.), (and) the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel).
49. And will make him [‘Iesa (Jesus)] a Messenger to the Children of Israel (saying): “I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, that I design 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 him who was born blind, and the leper, and I bring the dead to life by Allah’s Leave. And I inform you of what you eat, and what you store in your houses. Surely, therein is a sign for you, if you believe.
50. And I have come confirming that which was before me of the Taurat (Torah), and to make lawful to you part of what was forbidden to you, and I have come to you with a proof from your Lord. So fear Allah and obey me.
51. Truly! Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him (Alone). This is the Straight Path.
52. Then when ‘Iesa (Jesus) came to know of their disbelief, he said: “Who will be my helpers in Allah’s Cause?” Al-Hawariun (the disciples) said: “We are the helpers of Allah; we believe in Allah, and bear witness that we are Muslims (i.e. we submit to Allah).”
53. Our Lord! We believe in what You have sent down, and we follow the Messenger [‘Iesa (Jesus)]; so write us down among those who bear witness (to the truth i.e. La ilaha ill-Allah – none has the right to be worshipped but Allah).
54. And they (disbelievers) plotted [to kill ‘Iesa (Jesus)], and Allah planned too. And Allah is the Best of the planners.
55. And (remember) when Allah said: “O ‘Iesa (Jesus)! I will take you and raise you to Myself and clear you [of the forged statement that ‘Iesa (Jesus) is Allah’s son] of those who disbelieve, and I will make those who follow you (Monotheists, who worship none but Allah) superior to those who disbelieve [in the Oneness of Allah, or disbelieve in some of His Messengers, e.g. Muhammad , ‘Iesa (Jesus), Musa (Moses), etc., or in His Holy Books, e.g. the Taurat (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel), the Qur’an] 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.”
56. “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.”
57. And as for those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah) and do righteous good deeds, Allah will pay them their reward in full. And Allah does not like the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers).
58. This is what We recite to you (O Muhammad ) of the Verses and the Wise Reminder (i.e. the Qur’an).
59. Verily, the likeness of ‘Iesa (Jesus) before Allah is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: “Be!” – and he was.
60. (This is) the truth from your Lord, so be not of those who doubt.
61. Then whoever disputes with you concerning him [‘Iesa (Jesus)] after (all this) knowledge that has come to you, [i.e. ‘Iesa (Jesus)] being a slave of Allah, and having no share in Divinity) say: (O Muhammad ) “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 Allah upon those who lie.”
62. Verily! This is the true narrative [about the story of ‘Iesa (Jesus)], and, La ilaha ill-Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, the One and the Only True God, Who has neither a wife nor a son). And indeed, Allah is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
63. And if they turn away (and do not accept these true proofs and evidences), then surely, Allah is All-Aware of those who do mischief.
64. Say (O Muhammad ): “O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): Come to a word that is just between us and you, that we worship none but Allah, and that we associate no partners with Him, and that none of us shall take others as lords besides Allah. Then, if they turn away, say: “Bear witness that we are Muslims.”
65. O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Why do you dispute about Ibrahim (Abraham), while the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) were not revealed till after him? Have you then no sense?
66. Verily, you are those who have disputed about that of which you have knowledge. Why do you then dispute concerning that which you have no knowledge? It is Allah Who knows, and you know not.
67. Ibrahim (Abraham) was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a true Muslim Hanifa (Islamic Monotheism – to worship none but Allah Alone) and he was not of Al-Mushrikun (See V.2:105).
68. Verily, among mankind who have the best claim to Ibrahim (Abraham) are those who followed him, and this Prophet (Muhammad ) and those who have believed (Muslims). And Allah is the Wali (Protector and Helper) of the believers.
69. A party of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish to lead you astray. But they shall not lead astray anyone except themselves, and they perceive not.
70. O people of the Scripture! (Jews and Christians): “Why do you disbelieve in the Ayat of Allah, [the Verses about Prophet Muhammad present in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] while you (yourselves) bear witness (to their truth).”
71. O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): “Why do you mix truth with falsehood and conceal the truth while you know?”

Also, the hadith or sayings of Prophet Muhammad confirms our believe in prophet Eesa (May the peace and blessings of God be upon him):
Sahih Bukhari Volume 3, Book 34, Number 425:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, son of Mary (Jesus) will shortly descend amongst you people (Muslims) as a just ruler and will break the Cross and kill the pig and abolish the Jizya (a tax taken from the non-Muslims, who are in the protection, of the Muslim government). Then there will be abundance of money and no-body will accept charitable gifts.
Sahih Bukhari Volume 3, Book 43, Number 656:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “The Hour will not be established until the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you as a just ruler, he will break the cross, kill the pigs, and abolish the Jizya tax. Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it (as charitable gifts).
Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 55, Number 651:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
I heard Allah’s Apostle saying, “I am the nearest of all the people to the son of Mary, and all the prophets are paternal brothers, and there has been no prophet between me and him (i.e. Jesus).”
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 652:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “Both in this world and in the Hereafter, I am the nearest of all the people to Jesus, the son of Mary. The prophets are paternal brothers; their mothers are different, but their religion is one.”
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 657:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, surely (Jesus,) the son of Mary will soon descend amongst you and will judge mankind justly (as a Just Ruler); he will break the Cross and kill the pigs and there will be no Jizya (i.e. taxation taken from non Muslims). Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it, and a single prostration to Allah (in prayer) will be better than the whole world and whatever is in it.” Abu Huraira added “If you wish, you can recite (this verse of the Holy Book): — ‘And there is none Of the people of the Scriptures (Jews and Christians) But must believe in him (i.e. Jesus as an Apostle of Allah and a human being) Before his death. And on the Day of Judgment He will be a witness Against them.” (4.159) (See Fateh Al Bari, Page 302 Vol. 7)

@Bolarinwa, we Christians are very correct when we say that you Muslims believe not in Jesus. To believe in Jesus means to wholly accept both His humanity and His divinity. You Muslims “believe” the human part, but deny His divine nature up until tomorrow because admitting that would automatically make Jesus superior to your Muhammad. According to your Quran, it is a “forged statement that ‘Iesa (Jesus) is Allah’s son”; and by Allah, you mean God. I am going to be brief in addressing this:
1) Long before Jesus was born, Prophet Isaiah prove you Muslims wrong when he said, “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel (Which means God with us”) Isaiah 7:14.
This verse alone places Jesus far above every other prophet that ever came before or after him, including your Mohammed. You argue that God has neither a wife nor a son. A wife, I doubt. But I know that God does not need a wife before He could have a son. According to your Quran, God needs only to say, “Be”, and it shall be. And that is true.
2) Now, take this from me! Luke 1:30–35
30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.
31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.
32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,
33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”
34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.
Bolarinwa, it was an ordinary man like you and I that shot the sperm that formed Muhammad. But no man can lay such a claim on Jesus because He came via immaculate conception: The Holy Spirit of God Himself overshadowed Mary, and this, your Qur’an admits. Hence I ask, what else do you Muslims need to know before you accept the truth of Jesus? Even your hadith confirms that Jesus shall one day judge the whole of mankind:
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 657:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, surely (Jesus,) the son of Mary will soon descend amongst you and will judge mankind justly (as a Just Ruler).
This statement will condemn every Muslim on the last day for not believing in Jesus. Time is short. Jesus is the ONLY WAY! Make the right choice now!
Bolarinwa
July 9, 2016 at 6:31 AM
First to correct you, I am female. Secondly, in whose creation was greater to claim divinity…. Adam was created from no sexual mixture, he has no father no mother, he didn’t have to suckle or weaned , he didn’t have to come forth from the genitals of a woman. Our beloved prophet eesa (Jesus) Never for once claimed divinity
Secondly, you claimed Jesus is the only way, you are so wrong cos all prophets are God,s manual instructions on earth . the reason why you quoted from old testament. And you cant obey God by disobeying them. Hence, they were the road to God ,same as Moses, David, Solomon ( May God,s blessing be upon them all)
It is we human that have divided based on sentiments, ignorant and arrogance.
Show me in your scripture where Jesus called Himself God…you definitely can’t, but I can show you in hu deed places in your bible where he called himself servant. He never for once claimed divinity, he submitted himself totally to God . He claimed a servant, no ability to do things except directed by God. He said I haven’t cone to change the law of the prophets but to fulfil them. Rather he said..Worship the One true God , . I will leave you with the Quran verses. I can’t change your mind but to correct you. He never make such claims. Infact, he rebukes such claims. In Mark, 10 and Luke 18, when a certain ruler asked him, what to do to inherit the eternal life, Jesus says to him:
“Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. He didn’t even want to be called good much less god. But did the christians follow this insruction? Not at all! Infact, they called him god. I wonder if Jesus was present today how he is gonna react to this blasphemy. Propably too tense.
As a Prophet and a messenger of Allah, Jesus explicitly declares in the 8th chapter of john: “I have not come on my own; but he (God) sent me.”
He says further, “my father is greather than I.” Jesus’ mission was to convey the message given to him by his Lord. He was no more than a messenger. He says:
I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
Your claim of Jesus is definitely not Jeaus. Muslims accept him as the prophet of God and not A part of God…. It is your claim about Jesus that leads to hell as the Quran say. We have more claim to him than you . how?
Your bible says his first miracle was turning water to wine, ours says his first miracle was talking as a babe in the cradle when he cleared his mother from the claims of the Jews that she committed fornication
Our beloved Quran mentioned the process of labor Mary went through but yours only claimed … She gave birth….
The teaching of Jesus is not something new; it’s a kind of transition from the earlier teachings beginning with Abraham. If we take prayer for example, how the previous prophets pray to God, we will witness a clear consistency in their message. The bible tells us: quote:
“And Abraham fell on his face and pray” genesis 17:3, and moses and Aron fell on their faces and prayed (numbers 20:6) and Jesus fell on his face and prayed mathew 26:38).
And that is excatly how Muhammad SAW prayed and the whole muslim world prays like that. The christians don’t pray like that though. They have their own kind of worship. Who is really tryin to imitate Jesus? Christians or muslims?
And that is the main problem of christianity: its not a religion of Jesus; it’s the religion consructed about Jesus.
The message of Jesus is islamic in every sense: believing in one God, he never mention the mystery of trinity; that he’s a preacher, teacher, messenger and no more; that salvation rests by keeping the commandments; and son.
Infact even his diet isnt christian, Jesus’ diet is islamic as he didn’t eat pig he kills over 2000 pigs says the bible. For we believe that Jesus was a muslim; and his message is islam.
Little wonder that on his second coming he is going to rejects the christians for they misunderstood him and his message.
The bible tell us in the 7th chapter of mathew:
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Jesus is going to rebuke the christians, and this is in consequence of the diversion in christianity from the real message. Its like a dialectic between the 2billion christians and Jesus.
Christians are more concerned with the one who did the preaching than what he preached. It’s a kind of shift from the message to the messenger. And when this kind of shift happens, problems and misunderstanding emerged. If the emphases is in the preacher, racial pride and nationalism come into play. You cant value the message if you’re too obsessed from where it comes from.
Jesus pray to God; christians pray to Jesus. Christianity is a religion of paul constructed against Jesus.
Jesus was a Muslim and his religion was Islam in every sense.He also called himself a man:
And Jesus answered them, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
Another fact that he isn’t God nor claims divinity is when he says about the hour:
However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.(Matthew 24:36)….think!!!!
You said isiah (May the blessings of God be upon hm. In the Quran, he is known as Dhul kifl, he great prophet prophesized the coming of Jesus, no big deal, as he wasn’t the only one that prophesized , just as David , moses prophesied the coming of the prophets as God directed.
But when Jesus prophesied the coming of Muhammad , you rejected him…see , it is that rejection that leads to hell. I leave you to these Quran verses.. Pondrt man cos hell is real:
Jesus is not the Son of God, belief in the Trinity is “excess”: “O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, ‘Three’; desist — it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs.” — Qur’an 4:171
“It is not befitting to (the majesty of) Allah that He should beget a son. Glory be to Him! when He determines a matter, He only says to it, ‘Be,’ and it is.” — Qur’an 19:35
Jesus was not crucified: “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.” — Qur’an 4:157
Those who believe in the divinity of Christ are “disbelievers”: “They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary.” — Qur’an 5:17
Jesus teaches the unity of Allah; the oneness of God. In the 12th chapter of Mark, it was reported that a man came to Jesus and asked him: “which is the first of ll commandments”? and Jesus answered: “The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord.”
Yet, most christians says Jesus is God. It’s an amazing situation. Jesus says: The Lord our God is one Lord; Christians says: no, it is the trinity in the god-head. Contradicting the messege of Jesus. Nowhere from the lips of Jesus, did he utter trinity! And that is the core problem of the churches: they preach what Jesus never preached. Infact, Christianity went on deifying Jesus. They say Jesus walked down the Palestine as a divine being. The question here is, did he says he is God? Did he claim to be God? Did he says am god worship me? There is not in any version of the bible where explicitly Jesus says listen everybody: I am god!
He never make such claims. Infact, he rebukes such claims. In Mark, 10 and Luke 18, when a certain ruler asked him, what to do to inherit the eternal life, Jesus says to him:
“Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. He didn’t even want to be called good much less god. But did the christians follow this insruction? Not at all! Infact, they called him god. I wonder if Jesus was present today how he is gonna react to this blasphemy. Propably too tense.
I am also sure you know Christianity means follower of Christ..ask yourself, was Jesus a christian? Nooooooo… He didn’t follow himself, He submitted to God which is the meaning of a true Prophet.. Submission to God means Muslim in Arabic. Brother, think
And strive for Allah with the striving due to Him. He has chosen you and has not placed upon you in the religion any difficulty. [It is] the religion of your father, Abraham. Allah named you “Muslims” before [in former scriptures] and in this [revelation] that the Messenger may be a witness over you and you may be witnesses over the people. So establish prayer and give zakah and hold fast to Allah. He is your protector; and excellent is the protector, and excellent is the helper.(22:85)
:
And they say, “None shall enter Paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian.” These are their own desires. Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ), “Produce your proof if you are truthful…. (2:111)
Hilali O you who believe! Fear Allah (by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has forbidden) as He should be feared. (Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember Him always), and die not except in a state of Islam (as Muslims) with complete submission to Allah. (Q3:102)
And whoever desires other than Islam as religion – never will it be accepted from him, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers.(3:85)
I leave you brother, do ponder

@Bolarinwa, what a loooooooong response. You seem to know the bible. But what you know is a huge heap of nothing. Let me trash you, and I’m not gonna need to write a novel to do that:
You say my claim that Jesus is the only way is wrong. John 14:6 quotes Jesus as saying, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. NO ONE COMETH UNTO THE FATHER BUT BY ME.” Will you tell me that Jesus lied here? I hope that the devil will not give you such boldness.
Again, Acts 4:12 says, “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” In your search of the bible, haven’t you ever come across those two passages? Think! Think!
As to the divinity of Jesus, you will agree with me that no being should be worshiped except God. Now hear this: Matthew 14:33 “Then the men in the boat began to worship Jesus, saying, “You certainly are the Son of God!” Furthermore, no other person has the power to forgive sin but God. But read this account in Matthew 9:1-5
1. Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town.
2. Some men brought to him a paralyzed man, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.”
3. At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, “This fellow is blaspheming!”
4 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said, “Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts?
5 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?
The people thought it was blasphemy because Jesus should not be forgiving sins except he was God, and unfortunately, they thought he was merely a man. One of Jesus’ disciples once asked Him to show them the Father, and Jesus replied: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you for such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?(John 14:8-9)
Now, if Jesus was merely referring to the unity between Him and God, it would have been an unfair answer to such a simple question. But He was using that opportunity to let the disciples know that he is God. Jesus said, “Before Abraham was even born, I am”(John 8:58). Doesn’t this mean that He had been existing?
Please, Bolarinwa, this is not a debate to determine who wins. This has far-reaching implications. I say it again that Jesus is the only way. And I plead with you to desist from calling Jesus a Muslim. That is blasphemy.

In addition@Bolarinwa, what amazes me with you, is that you acknowledge that no man had any sexual knowledge of Mary when Jesus was conceived; you admit that it was the Spirit of God that came over her, yet you deny the divinity of the fruit of her womb. Does that not make you an interesting kind of person? Do you trace your root from your mother or your father? If your mother is an English woman and your father a Nigeria, do you not say you are Nigerian, or at best, dual nationality?
So when Christians maintain the dual nature of Christ: Human and devine, why is it a problem to you? Or is it a desperate attempt to place Jesus at par with your Prophet Muhammad?
I am just sorry for who continues to argue when the truth glares at him. Even your Qur’an proves that Jesus is God. Everyday we hear people saying, Don’t judge! Let God judge! And we all accept that judgement is God’s own exclusive prerogative. But your quran says that Jesus shall one day judge the whole world. I can’t believe that despite the weight of evidence against you, you still argue against Jesus. You are playing with your future, your eternal destiny. Think! Think well! Think again!

Allah (God) says in the Quran, “There shall not be anyone from People of the Book, but shall believe in him before his death and on the Day of Resurrection, he (Jesus) shall be a witness against them.” (Quran 4: 159)
Furthermore, Allah (God) also says in the Quran, “And he (Jesus عليه السلام) shall be a Sign (for the coming of) the Hour (of Resurrection); therefore have no doubt about it (the Hour). And follow me (Allah), this is a Straight Path.” (Quran 43: 61)
About the hadith you quoted , you didn’t quote it fully….
By Him in Who’s hands my soul rests, surely Jesus, Son of Maryam (Mary) will soon descend amongst you and will judge mankind judiciously, by the law of the Quran, as an honest ruler. He will break the cross, kill the pig and abolish jizya. Money will abound in such excess that no one will wish to accept it. A single prostration to Allah, in prayer, will be better than the whole world and all it contains.” Abu Hurayrah, the narrator, added, “If you wish, you can recite this verse from the holy Quran :” “And there is none of the people of the book, but must believe in him (i.e. Jesus as an apostle of Allah and a human being), before his death, and on the Day of Judgement, he will be a witness against them.” Quran 4/159
You can read this article on the return of Jesus…. Brother, we acknowledge him as a Man, servant and prophet of God, as even some chapters of the bible ckaim and not Son… Glory be to Allah above having a son or daughter.
esus’ return to Earth is a major sign of Qiyamah (Day of Resurrection):
Allah (God) says in the Quran, “And he (Jesus عليه السلام) shall be a Sign (for the coming of) the Hour (of Resurrection); therefore have no doubt about it (the Hour). And follow me (Allah), this is a Straight Path.” (Quran 43: 61) Ibn Abbas has said that the meaning of this verse is that Prophet Jesus’ عليه السلام descent is a sign of Qiyamah. (Musnad Ahmad)
Huzaifa bin Usaid reported that Prophet Mohammad صلى الله عليه وسلم suddenly came to us while we were talking. He asked, “What are you talking about?” We replied “We were talking about the Last Hour.” Prophet (s) said, “It will never come until you see ten signs before it. He then mentioned the Smoke, the Dajjal (Anti-Christ), the Daabba, the Rising of the Sun from the place of its setting, the Descent of Jesus son of Mary (from Heaven), Yajuj and Ma’juj (Gog & MaGog)…” (Sahih Muslim)
And you still claim Muslims don’t believe in Jesus?
