Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Dear friend, Could you plz read this and be honest with yourself , please read and share with me your opinion ? Iam really become happy when I discuse such this thing with smart person . Islam honors all the prophets who were sent to mankind. Muslims respect all prophets in general, but Jesus in particular, because he was one of the prophets who foretold the coming of Muhammad. Muslims, too, await the second coming of Jesus. They consider him one of the greatest of Allah's prophets to mankind. A Muslim does not refer to him simply as " Jesus, " but normally adds the phrase " peace be upon him " as a sign of respect. No other religion in the world respects and dignifies Jesus as Islam does. The Qur'an confirms his virgin birth (a chapter of the Qur'an is entitled " Mary " ), and Mary is considered to have been one of the purest women in all creation. The Qur'an describes Jesus' birth as follows: " Behold!' the Angel said, God has chosen you, and purified you, and chosen you above the women of all nations. Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him, whose name shall be the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and in the Hereafter, and one of those brought near to God. He shall speak to the people from his cradle and in maturity, and he shall be of the righteous. She said: " My Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me?' He said: " Even so; God creates what He will. When He decrees a thing, He says to it, 'Be!' and it is. " [3:42-47] Muslims believe that Jesus was born immaculately, and through the same power which had brought Eve to life and Adam into being without a father or a mother. " Truly, the likeness of Jesus with God is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, and then said to him, 'Be!' and he was. " [3:59] During his prophetic mission, Jesus performed many miracles. The Qur'an tells us that he said: " I have come to you with a sign from your Lord: 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 God's leave. And I heal the blind, and the lepers, and I raise the dead by God's leave. " [3:49] Muhammad and Jesus, as well as the other prophets, were sent to confirm the belief in one God. This is referred to in the Qur'an where Jesus is reported as saying that he came: " To attest the law which was before me, and to make lawful to you part of what was forbidden you; I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear God and obey me. " [3:50] Prophet Muhammad emphasized the importance of Jesus by saying: " Whoever believes there is no god but Allah, alone without partner, that Muhammad is His messenger, that Jesus is a servant and messenger of God, His word breathed into Mary and a spirit emanating from Him, and that Paradise and Hell are true, shall be received by God into Heaven.

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 What is there to discuss? Really, I am serious. You are happy with what Islam has to say about Jesus. That should be enough. When you put it on a chat room like this one, however, what is the purpose? If I am correct, this chatroom is about the teachings of Nisargadatta Maharaj, and subjects closely akin to that. What you are talking about has nothing to do with those things. You are talking about religious beliefs about historical figures supposed (or not) divinity. You are talking up a particular religion that is dear to you -- Islam. You are not talking about becoming Mohammed or becoming Jesus yourself. THAT is the teaching of Nisargadatta. When you are seriously interested in realization, then, in my opinion, you could have something interesting to say about the prophets. Until then, what you have to say seems beside the point, so to speak, Shanti, Christo smile_mim mimi <smile_mim wrote: Dear friend, Could you plz read this and be honest with yourself , please read and share with me your opinion ?

L. E; The only Mexican I know that relates to this post is named Zues. And his friends are always saying, " Hey Zues! " I met him at my health club, and really, he's not Jewish.
