▧ Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh) in Hindu Scriptures
Kalki Avatar
● Veda mentions that 'Kalki Avatar' will be the last Messenger/Prophet of Bhagwan (Allah) to guide the whole world. After quoting this reference the Pundit Prakash says that this comes true only in the case of Muhammed .
● According to a prophecy of Hinduism, 'Kalki Avatar' will be born in an island and that is the Arab territory, which is known as 'jazeeratul Arab'.
● In the 'sacred' book of Hindus the father's name of 'Kalki Avatar' is mentioned as 'Vishnu Bhagat' and his mother's name as 'Somanib'. In sanskrit, 'Vishnu' stands for Allah (swt) and the literal meaning of 'bhagat' is slave. 'Vishnu Bhagat' therefore, in the Arabic language will mean Allah's slave (Abdullah). 'Somanib' in Sanskrit means peace and tranquility which in Arabic is denoted by the word 'Amina'. Whereas the last Messenger Muhammed's father and mother's names were Abdullah and Amina respectively.
● In the big books of Hindus, it is mentioned that 'Kalki Avatar' will live on olive and dates and he will be true to his words and honest. and This is true and established only in the case of Prophet Muhammed who lived on dates and olives and he was called before he was given the prophethood as "Al-Sadiq" & "Al-Ameen" [The Truthful & the Honest]
● Veda mentions that 'Kalki Avatar' will be born in the respected and noble dynasty of his land. And this is also true as regards Muhammed (Pbuh) as he was born in the respected tribe of Quraish who enjoyed great respect and high place in Makkah.
● Kalki will be born on the 12th day of the month. Prophet (Pbuh) was born on 12th Of Rabiyyul Awwal
● 'Kalki Avatar' will be taught in the cave by Bhagwan through his own messenger. And it is very true in this matter. Muhammed (Pbuh) was the only one prophet who has taught by Allah's Messenger Gabriel in the cave of Hira.
● It is written also that Bhagwan will provide 'Kalki Avatar' with the fastest of a horse and with the help of which he will ride around the world and the seven skies/heavens. this literally happened with the Prophet Muhammad [The riding on 'Buraq' and the Isra' and Mi'araj journey]
● It is written also that Kalki will split the moon. someone called Perumal the ruler of Indian kingdom of Kerala, witnessed splitting of the moon that was performed by Prophet (Pbuh). After gathering the facts he sailed to Arabia and became Muslim at Prophet’s (Pbuh) hand. His Tomb is near the city of Salala in Oman
● It is also written in the Hindus' books that 'Kalki Avatar' will be strengthened and heavily helped by Bhagwan. And we know this fact that Muhammed was aided and reinforced by Allah (swt) through His angels in the battle of Badr.
● Hindus' books also mention that 'Kalki Avatar' will be an expert in horse riding, arrow shooting, and swordsmanship. and that matches also with prophet Muhammad , we should note also that the the age of horses, swords, and spears is long ago gone and now is the age of modern weapons like tanks, missiles, and guns, and therefore it will be unwise to wait for 'Kalki Avatar' bearing sword and arrows or spears.

- Brother Azmy Posted this Long Article...don't miss to read...
Im posting here,so that All members can in their news feed.
-------------------------
The Islamic view of Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) lies between two extremes. The Jews, who rejected Jesus as a prophet of God, called him an imposter. The Christians, on the other hand, considered him to be the son of God and worship him as such. Islam considers Jesus to be one of the great prophets of God and respect him as much as Abraham, Moses, Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Them) to mention but a few.
This is in conformity with the Islamic view of the oneness of God, the oneness of divine guidance, and the complementary role of the subsequent mission of God's messengers.
When speaking of the day of judgement, Jesus clearly gave evidence of a limitation on his knowledge when he said, "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in Heaven, neither the son, but the Father" (Mark 13: 32 and Matt 24:36). But God knows all. His knowledge is without any limitations. That Jesus, of his own admission, did not know when the day of judgement would be, is clear proof that Jesus is not all-knowing, and that Jesus is therefore not God.
While Jesus performed many miracles, he himself admitted that the power he had was not his own but was derived from God when he said, "Verily, verily I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do..." (John 5:19). Again he said, "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear I judge: and my judgement is just; because I seek not mine own will but the will of the Father which has sent me." (John 5:30) But God is not only All-Powerful, He is also the source of all power and authority. That Jesus, of his own admission, could do nothing on his own is clear proof that Jesus is not all-powerful, and therefore that Jesus is not God.
God is the ultimate judge and refuge for all, and He does not call upon nor pray to any others. But Jesus acknowledged that there was One whom he worshipped and to Whom he prayed when he said, "I ascend unto my Father and your Father, and to my God and your God." (John 20:17). He is also reported to have cried out while on the cross, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matt. 27:46). If Jesus were God, then couldn't this be read, "Myself, myself, why hast thou forsaken me?" Would that not be pure nonsense? When Jesus prayed the Lord's prayer (Luke 11:2-4), was he praying to himself? When in the garden of Gethsemane he prayed, "O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt."(Matt. 26:36). Was Jesus praying to himself? Jesus, of his own admission and by his own actions, acknowledged, worshipped, and prayed to another being as God is clear proof that Jesus himself is not God.
Perhaps the clearest indication we have that Jesus and God are not equal, and therefore not one and the same, comes again from the mouth of Jesus himself who said in (John 14:28) "My Father is greater than I." When someone referred to him as a good master in (Luke 18:19), Jesus responded: "Why callest thou me good? None is good, save one, that is God..." Furthermore, Jesus drew clear distinctions between himself and God when he said, "I proceeded forth and came from God, neither came I of myself but He sent me." (John 8:42) Jesus gave clear evidence of his subordination to God, rather than his equality with God, when he said in (Luke 22:42), "Not my will but Thine will be done" and in John 5:30, "I seek not mine own will but the will of the Father which has sent me." That Jesus would admit that he did not come into the world on his own initiative but was directed to do so, that he would acknowledge another being as greater than himself, and that he would negate his own will in deference to affirming the will of another, give clear proof that Jesus is not the Supreme One and therefore Jesus is not God. According to the Bible, God is an invisible spirit...
Christianity believes that God created man in His image: white, black or any else, male or female? This is according to Genesis 1:26: "And God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness..." But this contradicts Isaiah 40:18 and 25: "To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness will ye compare unto him?.. To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? Saith the Holy One." See also Psalm 89:6: "For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? Who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?" And Jeremiah 10:6,7 "For as much as there is none like unto thee, O Lord... there is none like unto thee." Finally, in I Kings we read: "But will God indeed dwell on the earth?
Behold, heaven and the heaven of heaven's cannot contain you ." (8- 26-27) Our question is how does Jesus fit as being God? And how can God be born by a mortal one as any other mortal when it is clearly stated in the verse that heaven and earth cannot contain God.
While thousands saw Jesus and heard his voice, Jesus himself said that this could not be done with God when he said: " No man hath seen God at any time." (John 1:18). "Ye have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His shape." (John 5:37). So, Jesus said that no one had seen or heard God at any time. How then can Jesus fit as being God when his followers both saw and heard him? This is clear proof that Jesus was not God. During his lifetime, Jesus never claimed to be the Almighty God, Who is worthy of worshipping. Besides, he was frank in calling his people to worship the only One God, Who is in the heaven. Why shouldn't we surrender completely and be loyal to this One God, as Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) did, and thus convince ourselves that Jesus (P.B.U.H.) was only a man and a prophet
The Church recognizes the Bible as the primary source of knowledge about God and Jesus. But since the Bible makes it clear that Jesus is not the Supreme Being and the Supreme Being is not Jesus, upon what basis have you come to believe otherwise?
It should be clearly understood that all the prophets and messengers of God right from Adam to Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Them All) preached the Oneness of God. Thus, their religion was Islam which means total submission to the will and commands of the only One God (Allah).
Jesus (P.B.U.H.) was just a messenger of God whose birth was a special miracle, without the intervention of the customary physical means. Allah says in the Noble Qur'an:
"Behold! The angels said: 'O Mary! Allah hath chosen thee and purified thee, chosen thee above the women of all nations. O Mary! Worship thy Lord devoutly: prostrate thyself and bow down (in prayer) with those who bow down.' This is part of the tidings of the things unseen, which we reveal unto thee (O prophet!) by inspiration: Thou were not with them when they cast lots with arrows, as to which of them should be charged with the care of Mary: Nor were thou with them when they disputed (the point). 'Behold!' The angels said: 'O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah. He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. And he shall be (of the company of) the righteous.' She said: 'O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?' He said: 'Even so: Allah createth what He willeth: When He hath decreed a plan, He but saith to it, "Be", and it is. And Allah will teach him the Scripture and wisdom, and the Torah and the Gospel. And (appoint him) a messenger to the children of Israel, (with this message): "I have come to you, with a sign from your Lord, in that I make 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 those born blind, and the lepers, and I quicken the dead, by Allah's leave; and I declare to ye what you eat and what ye store in your houses. Surely therein is a sign for you if ye did believe. (I have come to you), to attest the Torah which was before me. And to make lawful to you part of what was (before) forbidden to you; I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. So fear Allah and obey me. It is Allah who is my Lord and your Lord; then worship Him. This is the way that is straight." (Qur'an 3: 49-51).
Given that the Noble Qur'an denies the trinity and the sonship of Jesus (P.B.U.H.), what, according to the Qur'an, was the real mission of Jesus? The answer is that Jesus was a link in a long chain of prophets and messengers sent by God to various nation and societies whenever they needed guidance or had deviated from the teachings of Moses and other messengers. He was miraculously supported to prove that he was a messenger from God. However, the majority of the Jews rejected his ministry.
In another verse of the Noble Qur'an, Jesus (P.B.U.H.) confirmed the validity of the Torah which was revealed to Moses, and also conveyed the glad tidings of a final messenger who would follow him:
"And when Jesus, son of Mary, said, Children of Israel, I am indeed the messenger to you, confirming the Torah that is before me, and giving glad tidings of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One." (Qur'an, 61 :6).
Note that "praised one" is a translation of "Ahmad" - Prophet Muhammad's (P.B.U.H.) name. Careful study of the New Testament shows that Jesus (P.B.U.H.) refers to the same prophet in John 14:16-17: "And I will give you another counselor (Prophet Muhammad), to be with you forever, even the spirit of truth."
The usual explanation of this prophecy is that the counselor referred to is the Holy Spirit, but this explanation is excluded by a previous verse in John: "Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the counselor will not come to you."
The characteristics of this counselor, as can be derived from the prophecy, are that he will stay forever with the believers, he will glorify Jesus, and he will speak what he hears from God. All these characteristics apply to Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.). He came six centuries after Jesus (P.B.U.H.). He came with a universal and everlasting message, fulfilling the prophecy that the counselor will stay forever with the faithful. He glorified Jesus as a great prophet. The Noble Qur'an attributes to Jesus (P.B.U.H.) miracles not mentioned in the Bible. Prophecies in the Old and New Testaments, as well as specific verses in the Qur'an, show how Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) is rejected by Jews and Christians out of prejudice and misunderstanding, rather than careful study of the Bible.
Mary, the mother of Jesus (P.B.U.H.) never claimed to be the mother of God. She was a pious and virtuous woman. The Noble Qur'an says:
"Christ, the son of Mary, was no more than a messenger; many were the messengers that passed away before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They had both to eat their (daily) food. See how Allah doth make His signs clear to them; Yet see in what ways they are deluded away from the truth!" (Qur'an, 5:75).
The Noble Qur'an recognizes the fact that Jesus (P.B.U.H.) had no human father, but this does not make him the son of God, or God himself. By this criterion, Adam would have been more entitled to be the son of God, because he had neither a father nor a mother. The Noble Qur'an draws attention to the miraculous creation of both in the following verses:
"Truly the likeness of Jesus, in God's sight, is as Adam's likeness; He created him of dust, then He said to him, 'Be' and he was." (Qur'an 3:59).
Taking men for gods or sons of God was not a new thing. All ancient mythologies have fables of that kind. God says in the Noble Qur'an:
"The Jews call 'Uzair' a son of God, and the Christians call Christ as the son of God. That is a saying from their mouths; (In this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the truth!"
Qur'an, 9:30( .
God also says in the Noble Qur'an:
"Say, He is Allah, The One and Only; Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him." (Qur'an, 112:1-4).
In a chapter (surah) entitled "Maryam" (Mary), the Noble Qur'an tells us how Mary gave birth to her son, and how the Jews accused her when she brought the child home:
"Then she brought the child to her folk, carrying him, and they said, 'Mary, you have surely committed a monstrous thing. Sister of Aaron, your father was not a wicked man, nor your mother a woman unchaste.' Mary pointed to the child; but they said, 'How shall we speak to one who is still in the cradle, a little child.' And he said, Lo, I am God's servant. God has given me the Book and made me a Prophet. He has made me blessed wherever I may be and he has enjoined upon me prayer and almsgiving so long as I live, and likewise to cherish my mother. He has not made me arrogant and unblest. Peace be upon me, the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I am raised up alive." (Qur'an, 19:29-33).
In the same chapter, following the above quotation, God assures Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) and, through him, the whole world, that what is told above is the TRUTH about Jesus (P.B.U.H.), although Christians may not accept it. Jesus is NOT the son of GOD. He was, clearly, the son of Mary. The verses continue:
"That is Jesus, son of Mary, in word of truth, concerning which they doubt. It is not for God to take a son unto Him. Glory be to Him. Whenever He determines a matter, He but says to it, "Be", and it is."
(Qur'an,19:34-35
After this strong statement about the nature of Jesus, God directed Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) to call the Christians to worship the One God "Allah":
"Surely Allah is my Lord, and your Lord, so serve him. This is the straight path." (Qur'an, 19:36 ).
The rejection of the very idea of God having a son is restated later in the same chapter in even stronger words: "And they say:
The All- merciful has taken unto Himself a son. You have indeed advanced something hideous. At it the skies are about to burst, the earth to split asunder and the mountains to fall down in utter ruins: That they have attributed to the All-merciful a son. It behooves not that the All-merciful should take a son. None there are in the heavens and earth but comes to the All-merciful as a servant." (Qur'an, 19:88-93).
On the day of judgement, Jesus (P.B.U.H.) wil1 disclaim any knowledge of being worshipped as God. Allah, the Almighty, says in the Noble Qur'an: "And Behold! Allah will say:
"O Jesus, son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, "Worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah?" He will say: "Glory to Thee! Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, Thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart, though I know not what in thine. For thou knowest in full all that is hidden." (Qur'an, 5:116).
The Noble Qur'an rejects the concept of the trinity; God the father, God the son, God the Holy Spirit, as strongly as it rejects the concept of Jesus as the son of God. This is because GOD IS ONE. Three cannot be one. The Noble Qur'an addresses Christians in the following verses from the surah entitled "An-Nisaa" (The Women):
"People of the Book, do not go beyond the bounds in your religion, and say nought as to God but the Truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was only the messenger of God and his word that he committed to Mary, and a spirit originating from Him. So believe in God and His messengers, and say not "three." To refrain is better for you. Allah is only one God, glory be to him - that He should have a son! To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth. God suffices for a guardian.
The Messiah will not disdain to be a servant of God, neither will the angels who are close to Him. Whosoever disdains to serve Him and walks proud, He will assuredly muster them to Him, all of them.
As for the believers, who do deeds of righteousness, We will pay them their rewards in full, and He will give them more, out of His bounty. As for those who disdain and walk proudly, He will punish with a severe punishment, and they shall not find, apart from God, a friend or helper." (Qur'an, 4:171- 173 ).
The end of the life of Jesus on earth is as much involved in mystery as his birth. So how can it be deemed crucified when many Christian books affirm that his death was not certain? Allah says in the Noble Qur'an:
"That they said (in boast), we killed Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah. "But they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no certain knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not - Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise." (Qur'an, 4:157-158).
It is a sad fact of history that not many followed the ''straight path" called to by Jesus (P.B.U.H.). He was only followed by a few disciples inspired by God to support him. The non-believers plotted - as they would against Muhammad, six centuries later - to kill Jesus. But God had a better plan for him and his followers, as the Noble Qur'an tells us:
"And when Jesus perceived their unbelief, he said, 'Who will be my helpers in the cause of God?' The apostles said, 'We are God's helpers. We believe in God: so bear witness to our submission. God, we believe in what you have revealed, and we follow the messenger. Inscribe us therefore with those who bear witness.' And they (the disbelievers) devised, and God devised (against them), and God is the best of devisors. When God said, "Jesus, I will take you to Me and will raise you to Me, and I will purify you (of the falsehoods) of those who do not believe. I will make your followers above the unbelievers till Resurrection Day." (Qur'an,3:52-55 ( .
As the above verses indicate, Jesus (P.B.U.H.) was taken and raised to heaven. He was not crucified. It was certainly the plan of the enemies of Jesus (P.B.U.H.) to put him to death on the cross, but God saved him, and someone else was crucified:
"And for their unbelief, and their uttering against Mary a grave false charge, and for their saying, 'We killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God.' Yet they did not slay him, neither crucified him, only a likeness of that was shown to them. Those who are at variance concerning him are surely in doubt. They have no knowledge but only follow conjecture. It is certain that they killed him not. No indeed: God raised him up to Him: God is ever Almighty, Wise. There is not one of the people of the book but will believe in him before his death, and on Resurrection Day he will be a witness against them."
(Qur'an, 4: 156-159).
The Noble Qur'an does not explain who was the person crucified instead of Jesus, nor elaborate on the second coming of Jesus. However, commentators of the Noble Qur'an have always interpreted the last verse of the above quotation to mean that Jesus will return, and that all Jews and Christians will believe in him before he dies. This understanding is supported by authentic sayings (Hadith) of Prophet Muhammad (may the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him and upon all His messengers Koki Noor shared Khailila Nur's photo.

The Islamic view of Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) lies between two extremes. The Jews, who rejected Jesus as a prophet of God, called him an imposter. The Christians, on the other hand, considered him to be the son of God and worship him as such. Islam considers Jesus to be one of the great prophets of God and respect him as much as Abraham, Moses, Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Them) to mention but a few.
This is in conformity with the Islamic view of the oneness of God, the oneness of divine guidance, and the complementary role of the subsequent mission of God's messengers.
When speaking of the day of judgement, Jesus clearly gave evidence of a limitation on his knowledge when he said, "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in Heaven, neither the son, but the Father" (Mark 13: 32 and Matt 24:36). But God knows all. His knowledge is without any limitations. That Jesus, of his own admission, did not know when the day of judgement would be, is clear proof that Jesus is not all-knowing, and that Jesus is therefore not God.
While Jesus performed many miracles, he himself admitted that the power he had was not his own but was derived from God when he said, "Verily, verily I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do..." (John 5:19). Again he said, "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear I judge: and my judgement is just; because I seek not mine own will but the will of the Father which has sent me." (John 5:30) But God is not only All-Powerful, He is also the source of all power and authority. That Jesus, of his own admission, could do nothing on his own is clear proof that Jesus is not all-powerful, and therefore that Jesus is not God.
God is the ultimate judge and refuge for all, and He does not call upon nor pray to any others. But Jesus acknowledged that there was One whom he worshipped and to Whom he prayed when he said, "I ascend unto my Father and your Father, and to my God and your God." (John 20:17). He is also reported to have cried out while on the cross, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matt. 27:46). If Jesus were God, then couldn't this be read, "Myself, myself, why hast thou forsaken me?" Would that not be pure nonsense? When Jesus prayed the Lord's prayer (Luke 11:2-4), was he praying to himself? When in the garden of Gethsemane he prayed, "O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt."(Matt. 26:36). Was Jesus praying to himself? Jesus, of his own admission and by his own actions, acknowledged, worshipped, and prayed to another being as God is clear proof that Jesus himself is not God.
Perhaps the clearest indication we have that Jesus and God are not equal, and therefore not one and the same, comes again from the mouth of Jesus himself who said in (John 14:28) "My Father is greater than I." When someone referred to him as a good master in (Luke 18:19), Jesus responded: "Why callest thou me good? None is good, save one, that is God..." Furthermore, Jesus drew clear distinctions between himself and God when he said, "I proceeded forth and came from God, neither came I of myself but He sent me." (John 8:42) Jesus gave clear evidence of his subordination to God, rather than his equality with God, when he said in (Luke 22:42), "Not my will but Thine will be done" and in John 5:30, "I seek not mine own will but the will of the Father which has sent me." That Jesus would admit that he did not come into the world on his own initiative but was directed to do so, that he would acknowledge another being as greater than himself, and that he would negate his own will in deference to affirming the will of another, give clear proof that Jesus is not the Supreme One and therefore Jesus is not God. According to the Bible, God is an invisible spirit...
Christianity believes that God created man in His image: white, black or any else, male or female? This is according to Genesis 1:26: "And God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness..." But this contradicts Isaiah 40:18 and 25: "To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness will ye compare unto him?.. To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? Saith the Holy One." See also Psalm 89:6: "For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? Who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?" And Jeremiah 10:6,7 "For as much as there is none like unto thee, O Lord... there is none like unto thee." Finally, in I Kings we read: "But will God indeed dwell on the earth?
Behold, heaven and the heaven of heaven's cannot contain you ." (8- 26-27) Our question is how does Jesus fit as being God? And how can God be born by a mortal one as any other mortal when it is clearly stated in the verse that heaven and earth cannot contain God.
While thousands saw Jesus and heard his voice, Jesus himself said that this could not be done with God when he said: " No man hath seen God at any time." (John 1:18). "Ye have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His shape." (John 5:37). So, Jesus said that no one had seen or heard God at any time. How then can Jesus fit as being God when his followers both saw and heard him? This is clear proof that Jesus was not God. During his lifetime, Jesus never claimed to be the Almighty God, Who is worthy of worshipping. Besides, he was frank in calling his people to worship the only One God, Who is in the heaven. Why shouldn't we surrender completely and be loyal to this One God, as Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) did, and thus convince ourselves that Jesus (P.B.U.H.) was only a man and a prophet
The Church recognizes the Bible as the primary source of knowledge about God and Jesus. But since the Bible makes it clear that Jesus is not the Supreme Being and the Supreme Being is not Jesus, upon what basis have you come to believe otherwise?
It should be clearly understood that all the prophets and messengers of God right from Adam to Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Them All) preached the Oneness of God. Thus, their religion was Islam which means total submission to the will and commands of the only One God (Allah).
Jesus (P.B.U.H.) was just a messenger of God whose birth was a special miracle, without the intervention of the customary physical means. Allah says in the Noble Qur'an:
"Behold! The angels said: 'O Mary! Allah hath chosen thee and purified thee, chosen thee above the women of all nations. O Mary! Worship thy Lord devoutly: prostrate thyself and bow down (in prayer) with those who bow down.' This is part of the tidings of the things unseen, which we reveal unto thee (O prophet!) by inspiration: Thou were not with them when they cast lots with arrows, as to which of them should be charged with the care of Mary: Nor were thou with them when they disputed (the point). 'Behold!' The angels said: 'O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah. He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. And he shall be (of the company of) the righteous.' She said: 'O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?' He said: 'Even so: Allah createth what He willeth: When He hath decreed a plan, He but saith to it, "Be", and it is. And Allah will teach him the Scripture and wisdom, and the Torah and the Gospel. And (appoint him) a messenger to the children of Israel, (with this message): "I have come to you, with a sign from your Lord, in that I make 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 those born blind, and the lepers, and I quicken the dead, by Allah's leave; and I declare to ye what you eat and what ye store in your houses. Surely therein is a sign for you if ye did believe. (I have come to you), to attest the Torah which was before me. And to make lawful to you part of what was (before) forbidden to you; I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. So fear Allah and obey me. It is Allah who is my Lord and your Lord; then worship Him. This is the way that is straight." (Qur'an 3: 49-51).
Given that the Noble Qur'an denies the trinity and the sonship of Jesus (P.B.U.H.), what, according to the Qur'an, was the real mission of Jesus? The answer is that Jesus was a link in a long chain of prophets and messengers sent by God to various nation and societies whenever they needed guidance or had deviated from the teachings of Moses and other messengers. He was miraculously supported to prove that he was a messenger from God. However, the majority of the Jews rejected his ministry.
In another verse of the Noble Qur'an, Jesus (P.B.U.H.) confirmed the validity of the Torah which was revealed to Moses, and also conveyed the glad tidings of a final messenger who would follow him:
"And when Jesus, son of Mary, said, Children of Israel, I am indeed the messenger to you, confirming the Torah that is before me, and giving glad tidings of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One." (Qur'an, 61 :6).
Note that "praised one" is a translation of "Ahmad" - Prophet Muhammad's (P.B.U.H.) name. Careful study of the New Testament shows that Jesus (P.B.U.H.) refers to the same prophet in John 14:16-17: "And I will give you another counselor (Prophet Muhammad), to be with you forever, even the spirit of truth."
The usual explanation of this prophecy is that the counselor referred to is the Holy Spirit, but this explanation is excluded by a previous verse in John: "Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the counselor will not come to you."
The characteristics of this counselor, as can be derived from the prophecy, are that he will stay forever with the believers, he will glorify Jesus, and he will speak what he hears from God. All these characteristics apply to Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.). He came six centuries after Jesus (P.B.U.H.). He came with a universal and everlasting message, fulfilling the prophecy that the counselor will stay forever with the faithful. He glorified Jesus as a great prophet. The Noble Qur'an attributes to Jesus (P.B.U.H.) miracles not mentioned in the Bible. Prophecies in the Old and New Testaments, as well as specific verses in the Qur'an, show how Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) is rejected by Jews and Christians out of prejudice and misunderstanding, rather than careful study of the Bible.
Mary, the mother of Jesus (P.B.U.H.) never claimed to be the mother of God. She was a pious and virtuous woman. The Noble Qur'an says:
"Christ, the son of Mary, was no more than a messenger; many were the messengers that passed away before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They had both to eat their (daily) food. See how Allah doth make His signs clear to them; Yet see in what ways they are deluded away from the truth!" (Qur'an, 5:75).
The Noble Qur'an recognizes the fact that Jesus (P.B.U.H.) had no human father, but this does not make him the son of God, or God himself. By this criterion, Adam would have been more entitled to be the son of God, because he had neither a father nor a mother. The Noble Qur'an draws attention to the miraculous creation of both in the following verses:
"Truly the likeness of Jesus, in God's sight, is as Adam's likeness; He created him of dust, then He said to him, 'Be' and he was." (Qur'an 3:59).
Taking men for gods or sons of God was not a new thing. All ancient mythologies have fables of that kind. God says in the Noble Qur'an:
"The Jews call 'Uzair' a son of God, and the Christians call Christ as the son of God. That is a saying from their mouths; (In this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the truth!"
Qur'an, 9:30( .
God also says in the Noble Qur'an:
"Say, He is Allah, The One and Only; Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him." (Qur'an, 112:1-4).
In a chapter (surah) entitled "Maryam" (Mary), the Noble Qur'an tells us how Mary gave birth to her son, and how the Jews accused her when she brought the child home:
"Then she brought the child to her folk, carrying him, and they said, 'Mary, you have surely committed a monstrous thing. Sister of Aaron, your father was not a wicked man, nor your mother a woman unchaste.' Mary pointed to the child; but they said, 'How shall we speak to one who is still in the cradle, a little child.' And he said, Lo, I am God's servant. God has given me the Book and made me a Prophet. He has made me blessed wherever I may be and he has enjoined upon me prayer and almsgiving so long as I live, and likewise to cherish my mother. He has not made me arrogant and unblest. Peace be upon me, the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I am raised up alive." (Qur'an, 19:29-33).
In the same chapter, following the above quotation, God assures Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) and, through him, the whole world, that what is told above is the TRUTH about Jesus (P.B.U.H.), although Christians may not accept it. Jesus is NOT the son of GOD. He was, clearly, the son of Mary. The verses continue:
"That is Jesus, son of Mary, in word of truth, concerning which they doubt. It is not for God to take a son unto Him. Glory be to Him. Whenever He determines a matter, He but says to it, "Be", and it is."
(Qur'an,19:34-35
After this strong statement about the nature of Jesus, God directed Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) to call the Christians to worship the One God "Allah":
"Surely Allah is my Lord, and your Lord, so serve him. This is the straight path." (Qur'an, 19:36 ).
The rejection of the very idea of God having a son is restated later in the same chapter in even stronger words: "And they say:
The All- merciful has taken unto Himself a son. You have indeed advanced something hideous. At it the skies are about to burst, the earth to split asunder and the mountains to fall down in utter ruins: That they have attributed to the All-merciful a son. It behooves not that the All-merciful should take a son. None there are in the heavens and earth but comes to the All-merciful as a servant." (Qur'an, 19:88-93).
On the day of judgement, Jesus (P.B.U.H.) wil1 disclaim any knowledge of being worshipped as God. Allah, the Almighty, says in the Noble Qur'an: "And Behold! Allah will say:
"O Jesus, son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, "Worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah?" He will say: "Glory to Thee! Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, Thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart, though I know not what in thine. For thou knowest in full all that is hidden." (Qur'an, 5:116).
The Noble Qur'an rejects the concept of the trinity; God the father, God the son, God the Holy Spirit, as strongly as it rejects the concept of Jesus as the son of God. This is because GOD IS ONE. Three cannot be one. The Noble Qur'an addresses Christians in the following verses from the surah entitled "An-Nisaa" (The Women):
"People of the Book, do not go beyond the bounds in your religion, and say nought as to God but the Truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was only the messenger of God and his word that he committed to Mary, and a spirit originating from Him. So believe in God and His messengers, and say not "three." To refrain is better for you. Allah is only one God, glory be to him - that He should have a son! To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth. God suffices for a guardian.
The Messiah will not disdain to be a servant of God, neither will the angels who are close to Him. Whosoever disdains to serve Him and walks proud, He will assuredly muster them to Him, all of them.
As for the believers, who do deeds of righteousness, We will pay them their rewards in full, and He will give them more, out of His bounty. As for those who disdain and walk proudly, He will punish with a severe punishment, and they shall not find, apart from God, a friend or helper." (Qur'an, 4:171- 173 ).
The end of the life of Jesus on earth is as much involved in mystery as his birth. So how can it be deemed crucified when many Christian books affirm that his death was not certain? Allah says in the Noble Qur'an:
"That they said (in boast), we killed Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah. "But they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no certain knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not - Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise." (Qur'an, 4:157-158).
It is a sad fact of history that not many followed the ''straight path" called to by Jesus (P.B.U.H.). He was only followed by a few disciples inspired by God to support him. The non-believers plotted - as they would against Muhammad, six centuries later - to kill Jesus. But God had a better plan for him and his followers, as the Noble Qur'an tells us:
"And when Jesus perceived their unbelief, he said, 'Who will be my helpers in the cause of God?' The apostles said, 'We are God's helpers. We believe in God: so bear witness to our submission. God, we believe in what you have revealed, and we follow the messenger. Inscribe us therefore with those who bear witness.' And they (the disbelievers) devised, and God devised (against them), and God is the best of devisors. When God said, "Jesus, I will take you to Me and will raise you to Me, and I will purify you (of the falsehoods) of those who do not believe. I will make your followers above the unbelievers till Resurrection Day." (Qur'an,3:52-55 ( .
As the above verses indicate, Jesus (P.B.U.H.) was taken and raised to heaven. He was not crucified. It was certainly the plan of the enemies of Jesus (P.B.U.H.) to put him to death on the cross, but God saved him, and someone else was crucified:
"And for their unbelief, and their uttering against Mary a grave false charge, and for their saying, 'We killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God.' Yet they did not slay him, neither crucified him, only a likeness of that was shown to them. Those who are at variance concerning him are surely in doubt. They have no knowledge but only follow conjecture. It is certain that they killed him not. No indeed: God raised him up to Him: God is ever Almighty, Wise. There is not one of the people of the book but will believe in him before his death, and on Resurrection Day he will be a witness against them."
(Qur'an, 4: 156-159).
The Noble Qur'an does not explain who was the person crucified instead of Jesus, nor elaborate on the second coming of Jesus. However, commentators of the Noble Qur'an have always interpreted the last verse of the above quotation to mean that Jesus will return, and that all Jews and Christians will believe in him before he dies. This understanding is supported by authentic sayings (Hadith) of Prophet Muhammad (may the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him and upon all His messengers Koki Noor shared Khailila Nur's photo.
