About this ebook
Prophet Isa AS or Prophet Jesus AS (Alaihisalam) or in the New Testament, is considered to be a Messenger of God and al-Masih (the Messiah) in Islam religon. Who was sent to guide the Children of Israel (bani israil) with a new scripture, al-Injil (the Gospel). The belief that Jesus is a prophet is required in Islam faith.
This is reflected in the fact that he is clearly a significant figure in the Holy Qur’an, appearing in 93 ayaat (or verses), though Prophet Noah (Nuh), Prophet Adam and Prophet Moses (Musa) appear with even greater frequency. It states that Prophet Jesus (Isa) was born to Virgin Mary (Maryam) as the result of virginal conception, a miraculous event which occurred by the decree of Allah SWT (God). To aid in his ministry to the Jewish people, Jesus was given the ability to perform miracles (such as healing the blind, bringing dead people back to life, etc. which no other prophet in Islam has ever been credited with, all by the permission of God rather than of his own power.
According to the Holy Quran, Prophet Jesus, although appearing to have been crucified, was not killed by crucifixion or by any other means; instead, "God raised him unto Himself". In the 19th Sura of the Quran (in verses 15 and 33), Jesus is blessed on "the day he was born and the day he will die and the day he is raised alive", which clearly declares that Prophet Jesus (Isa) will experience a natural death, and will be raised again on the day of judgment.
Like all prophets in Islam, Prophet Isa (Jesus) is considered a Muslim (i.e., one who submits to the will of God), as he preached that his followers should adopt the "straight path" as commanded by God. Traditionally, Islam faith teaches the rejection of the Trinitarian Christian view that Jesus was God incarnate or the son of God.
The Quran says that Prophet Jesus (Isa) himself never claimed to be the Son of God, and it furthermore indicates that Jesus will deny having ever claimed divinity at the Last Judgment, and God will vindicate him. Islamic texts forbid the association of partners with God (shirk), emphasizing a strict notion of pure monotheism (tawhid).
(Verily, the likeness of Jesus before Allah is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then He said to him: "Be!" - and he was.) [Al-Imran: 59].
