What Do Muslims Believe about Jesus?

Muslims respect and revere Jesus (peace be upon him).  They consider him one of the greatest of God’s messengers to mankind.  The Quran confirms his virgin birth, and a chapter of the Quran is entitled ‘Maryam’ (Mary).  The Quran describes the birth of Jesus as follows:

  (Remember) when the angels said,
“O Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him (God), whose name is
the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, revered in this world and the Hereafter, and one
of those brought near (to God).  He will speak to the people from his cradle and
as a man, and he is of the righteous.” She said, “My Lord, how can I
have a child when no mortal has touched me?” He said, “So (it will
be).  God creates what He wills.  If He decrees a thing, He says to it only,
‘Be!’
and it is.”
(Quran, 3:45-47)

Jesus was born miraculously by the command of God,
the same command that had brought Adam into being with neither a father nor a
mother.  God has said:

  The case of Jesus with God is like the
case of Adam.  He created him from dust, and then He said to him, “Be!”
and he came into being.
(Quran, 3:59)

During his prophetic mission, Jesus performed many
miracles.  God tells us that Jesus said:

  “I have come to you with a sign
from your Lord.  I make for you the shape of a bird out of clay, I breathe into
it, and it becomes a bird by God’s permission.  I heal the blind from birth and
the leper.  And I bring the dead to life by God’s permission.  And I tell you what
you eat and what you store in your houses....”  (Quran, 3:49)

Muslims believe that Jesus was not crucified.  It
was the plan of Jesus’ enemies to crucify him, but God saved him and raised him
up to Him.  And the likeness of Jesus was put over another man.  Jesus’ enemies
took this man and crucified him, thinking that he was Jesus.  God has said:

  ...They said,
“We killed the
Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God.” They did not kill him,
nor did they crucify him, but the likeness of him was put on another man (and
they killed that man)...  (Quran, 4:157)

Neither Muhammad
nor Jesus came to change the basic doctrine of
the belief in one God, brought by earlier prophets, but rather
to confirm and renew it.¹
