    INTRODUCTION

    MostpeopleagreetothefactthatAllaah's(Gods)Wordcannot be contradictory. What He spoke about Himself

    must be true.He made Himself known as The Creator,

    The One, The Originator, and The Provider. He is the

    First, nothing is before Him; The Last, nothing is after

    Him; TheMost High, nothing is aboveHim; TheMost

    Near, nothing isbeyondHis reach,andHe encompasses

    everything while He is above heavens, distinct and

    separate from His creatures. Great in His Majesty and

    Honor, Most Merciful, Severe in Punishment, All-

    Knower, Most Compassionate, All-Wise, and All-Just;

    MostPerfectinallofHisNamesandAttributes.Hedoes

    notbeget,norisHebegotten.ThereisnoequaltoHim,

    and there is nothing like unto Him, and thus He alone

    deserves to be worshipped. In essence, the religion as

    revealed1tonationsbeforeusandtomankinduptotheDay of Resurrection, calls for the worship of none but

    God(Allaah).AnyMessagefromthePerfectGodistrue,

    and cannot be contradictory. He entrusted many

    Prophetsand/orMessengerssincecreationbeganonearth.

    StartingwithAdam,Noah,Abraham,Moses, Jesus, and

    ending with Muhammad, peace be upon them all, the

    essenceof religionwasandstillis:peoplemustsubmitto theirCreator andworshipHim asHe revealed to

    theirrespectiveMessengersand/orProphets.Thisis

    1. Religion as a revelation from God, and in its original form is

    different from the concept of religion understood by many in the

    West. Many people founded for themselves certain disciplines and

    practices and called it religions. The Word of Allaah in all therevealed religions represented a concrete message defining the

    relationshipofmantoHisCreator.Thefinalandmostcomprehensive

    messagewhichcoversallcodesoflifeuntil theDayofResurrection

    wasrevealedtoProphetMuhammad,peacebeuponhim.

    thetrueMessage,andJesus,peacebeuponHim,isoneof

    thosegreatProphetsandMessengerswhowassenttothe

    ChildrenofIsrael,afterMoses,confirmingtherevelation

    sentdowntoMosesandtheGospelthathereceivedfrom

    Allaah. This same Message was confirmed by Prophet

    Muhammad, peace be upon him, believing in the true

    Gospel that came toJesusandpropagating the final and

    most comprehensive revelation tomankind, theQur'aan.

    TheQur'aan,beingAllaah'sWord,confirmsandatteststo

    the true nature of Jesus, and this is notknownbymany

    people. This book will introduce the reader to theQur'aanic texts related to Jesus, peace be upon him,

    hoping that the truth regarding the personality of Jesus

    becomesclear.

    AnHonorableFamilyThe family of Jesus is the Family of 'Imraan. It was a

    familychosenbyAllaah:

    "Allaah chose Adam, Noah, the family of Abraham,

    and the family of 'Imraan, above the 'Aalameen

    (mankindandjinnsoftheirtimes) .Offspring,onefromtheother,andAllaahistheAll-Hearer,All-Knower."(Qur'aan

    23:33-34)

    AnHonorableMotherundertheCareofAllaah

    shemadeavow:

    Rabb3 (Allaah)! I have vowed to You what is in my

    wombtobededicated forYour services (free fromall

    worldlywork;toserveYourPlaceofWorship),soaccept

    (this),fromme.Verily,YouaretheAll-Hearer,theAll-

    answered and said, "Who is my mother? And who are my

    brethren?"Certainly these cannot be thewords of a great Prophet

    who has a great moral character. It is an insult against Jesus that

    Allaahdoesnotaccept.

    andweknowthatGabrielisacreatedangel,existing,and

    hashisowncreatedqualities.SimilarlyAllaahsaysabout

    theheavensandtheearththat:

    "And has subjected to you all that is in the heavens

    and all that is in the earth; it is all as a favor and

    kindnessfromAllaah."(Qur'aan45:13)

    Clearly, the heavens and the earth are part of Allaah's

    creationandnotpartofAllaahHimselforanattributeofHim. We also read in the Qur'aan: Allaah'sMessenger,

    Allaah'sHouse(referringtotheKabahinMakkah),etc.

    TheMessenger,theHouse,etc.arelikeAllaah'sSpirit,in

    thesense that they are createdpersonsor things thatare

    honorable in Allaah's Sight. However, when one of the

    twonounsisAllaahandthesecondisneitherapersonnor

    a thing, then it is not a created thing but a quality ofAllaahe.g.Allaah'sKnowledge,Allaah'sSelf,etc.

    Therefore, Jesus isnot anattributeofAllaah. In fact

    Allaah declares that thosewho believe in Jesus as God

    commitKufr(disbelief):

    "Surely,indisbeliefaretheywhosaythatAllaahistheMessiah,sonofMary!Say (OMuhammad,peaceupon

    JesusNeverClaimedtoBeGod(Allaah)

    No onewho receives Revelation fromAllaah can claimhimselfDivineorGod:

    "It is not (possible) for any human being to whom

    Allaahhas given theBookandAl-Hukma (knowledge

    and understanding of the laws of religion, etc.) and

    Prophethoodtosaytothepeople:"Bemyworshippers

    ratherthanAllaah's."Onthecontrary(hewouldsay):Be you Rabbaaniyyoon (learned men of religion who

    you are teaching the Book, and you are studying it.

    Norwouldhe orderyou to take angels andProphets

    forlords(gods).Wouldheorderyoutodisbelieveafter

    youhave submitted toAllaah'swill?" (Qur'aan 3: 79-

    80)

    This statement fromAllaah affirms thehuman nature of

    ProphetsandMessengers.ProphetMuhammad(Peacebe

    uponhim)advisedthat:

    "Do not exaggerate in praising me as theChristians

    praisedthesonofMary,forIamonlyaslave.Socall

    metheslaveofAllaahandHisMessenger."12

    The exaggerated praise of Jesus13 has led many to

    consider him as God besides Allaah! Surely this is

    disbelief in Allaah, the Most Perfect, and the Self-

    Sufficient:12.ReportedinSaheehAl-Bukhaari,V.4,Hadeeth#654.

    (Lord).'Verily,whosoeversetsuppartnersinworship

    with Allaah, then Allaah has forbidden Paradise for

    "Will they not repent to Allaah and ask His

    Forgiveness? For Allaah is Oft-Forgiving, Most

    Merciful."(Qur'aan5:74)

    Repentance is something that pleases Allaah. It is a

    manifestation of submission to Him, and it does not

    requireanyintermediary.ProphetMuhammad(Praiseand

    ThePlotandtheResurrection

    Every Prophet was opposed by those who rejected theMessage he brought fromAllaah.Thisconflict hasbeen

    determined by Allaah from way before creation itself.

    Like many Prophets who were sent to the Children of

    Israel,Jesus,peacebeuponhim,wasopposedandaplot

    wasmadetokillhim:

    "Verily,WetookthecovenantoftheChildrenofIsraeland sent them Messengers.Whenever there came to

    them aMessengerwithwhat they themselvesdesired

    not- a group of them they called liars and others

    TheSavingofJesusfromtheCrucifixionand

    ThenHisAscension

    The Jews claimed, and still claim, that they crucified

    Jesus, but Allaah restrained them from that and saved

    Jesus,peacebeuponhim,bytakinghimuptoHimself:

    "Andbecauseoftheir (theJews)saying(inboast),'We

    killed Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, theMessenger of

    Allaah,buttheykilledhimnot,norcrucifiedhim,butthe resemblance of Jesus was put over another man

    (andtheykilledthatman),ANDTHOSEWHODIFFER

    THEREIN ARE FULL OF DOUBTS. They have no

    (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but

    conjecture. For surely, theykilled himnot (i.e. Jesus,

    sonofMary)."(Qur'aan4:157)

    "ButAllaah raised him (Jesus)up (with his body and

    soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And

    AllaahisEverAll-Powerful,All-Wise."(Quraan4:158)

    truthfulbrotherswho stand forAllaahandHisProphet

    (peace be upon him) testifying to the truth. Indeed, in

    thisage, Islaam is a religion without men (custodians

    and propagators) whereas Christianity is men without

    areligion; yet, by their endeavor, adventurous spirit,

    patience and monetary contributions they are ableto

    the term 'Father' isused forGod innumerousplaces in

    theBible. It is never used exclusively for theMessiah

    (Jesus).

    InMatthew11:25

    "AtthattimeJesusansweredandsaid,'IthankThee,

    O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because

    Thouhasthidthesethingsfromthewiseandprudent

    ABiblicalStory

    InMatthew15:22-28

    "And,behold,awoman ofCanaan cameout of the

    samecoastsandcrieduntohim,saying,'Havemercy

    onme,OLord, thou son of David: my daughter is

    grievouslyvexedwithadevil.'Butheansweredhernotaword.Andhisdisciplescameandbesoughthim,

    saying;'Sendheraway,forshecriethafterus.'But

    heansweredandsaid,'Iamnotsentbutuntothelost

    sheepofthehouseofIsrael.'

    Thencamesheandworshippedhim,saying,'Lord,help

    me.'Buthe answered and said, 'Itisnotmeettotakethechildren'sbreadandtocastittodogs.' Andshe

    said,'Truth,Lord:yetthedogseatofthecrumbswhich

    fallfromtheirmasters'table.'

    Then Jesus answered and said unto her, 'O woman,

    great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou

    wilt.And her daughter was made whole from thatveryhour.'

    In this story about a woman from Canaan there are

    noteworthypoints:

    (1)LackofmercyandlovechargedagainstJesus(ifthe

    incidentisreportedcorrectly).

    (2)Degradeddiscriminationinregardtotheupliftingof

    master, what good thing shall I do that I may

    haveeternallife?'Andhesaiduntohim,'Whycallest

    thou me good? (There is) none good but one,(i.e.)God, but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the

    when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared

    Jesus:AServantofAllaah

    InMatthew23:8

    'ButbenotyecalledRabbi:foroneisyourmaster,

    evenJesus,andallyearebrethren."

    Here it is clearly proved that Jesus was servant ofAllaah, and that there is only One Master and He

    isAllaah. In theArabic version of theBible this verse

    has been translated so that Jesus is meant to bethe

    master whereas the English rendering is nearer the

    originalsense.

    InMatthew23:9

    "Andcallnomanyourfatherupontheearth:forone

    isyourFatherwhichisinheaven."

    Fromthisyouwill note that fatherhoodandSonship is

    meant tobe the relationshipbetween the Lord andHisservants: it is meant in a general sense and not

    specificallyforJesus.

    InMatthew24:36

    "Butofthatdayandhourknowethnoman,no,not

    theangelsofheaven,butmyFatheronly."

    ThisisadefiniteproofthattheFinalHourisunknownto

    TheCompilationoftheBible

    InMatthew27:7-8

    "And they took counsel and bought with them the

    potter's field to bury strangers in. Wherefore

    thatfield was called the Field of Blood, unto this

    day."

    FromtheseversesweunderstandthattheBible(theNew

    Testament) was not written during Jesus'life-time but

    longaftertheoccurrenceoftheeventsdescribed,having

    beenretainedinthememoryofthepeople.

    InMatthew27:46

    "And about theninthhour Jesus criedwith a loud

    voice, saying, 'Eli,Eli, lama sabachthani? (MyGod,

    MyGod,whyhastthouforsakenme?')"

    This is according to their (Christians') assumption that

    Jesuscriedinaloudvoicesayingtheabovewordswhilehe was being crucified. This is a great insult as such

    words could only come fromunbelievers in Allaah.

    Further,itisincrediblethatsuchwordsshouldcomeout

    from a Prophet ofAllaahbecause Allaah never breaks

    HisPromiseandHisProphetsnevercomplainedagainst

    HisPromise.

    FinalityoftheProofsontheFabrication

    oftheStoryoftheCross

    1) The Bible testifies to the fact that Jesus was known

    amongtheJews;heusedtopreachanddeliversermonsin

    the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem. It was therefore,

    unnecessary to hire a Jew for thirty pieces of silver to

    directthemtohimasrelatedinMathew.

    2)ItisrelatedthatoneofthetwelvedispelsnamedJudas

    IscariotwashiredtodirecttheJewstoJesus.Theythen

    sentencedhimafterwhichJudaswasgreatlyashamedand

    dissociated himself from their act and then committed

    suicide.Allthistookplacewithintwenty-fourhours.The

    contradictionsareobvious.

    3)Theclearestproof,whichaloneissufficienttodiscredit

    thisstory,iswhentheJewspassedthesentenceofdeath

    against Jesus and intended to get the approval of the

    governor,PontiusPilate.

    AndJesus stoodbefore the governor:The governor

    asked him, saying, Art thou the king of the Jews!

    AndJesussaiduntohim,Thousayeth(sayest):And

    when he was accused of (by) the chief priests and

    elders. He answered nothing. Then said Pilate unto

    him, Hearest thounothowmanythingstheywitness

    against thee? And he answered him never (to) a

    word.Mathew27:11-14

    TheChristianswillinterprettheaboveversetomeanthat

    Jesus wanted to die on the cross for the redemption of

    mankindandforthe forgivenessof theirsins: ifso, then

  • 7/30/2019 Some Sincere Advice to Every Christian

    www.cis.org.in

    why did he ask to turn away that cup from him (i.e.

    death)?Why didhe cryoutwhileon theCross (as they

    assume):OLord,whyhastthouforsakenme?How

    could he have remained silentwhen the truthwas being

    challenged?Hewasknownforhissoul-inspiringsermons

    challenging the learned Jewish Rabbis. No sane person

    canbelieve inthis. If thestoryoftheCross-isdisproved

    then thevery foundationonwhichChristianity isbased,

    willbedemolished.

    MuslimsbelievethatJesuswasnotcrucifiedbytheJewsas revealed in the Quraan by Allaah in a crystal clear

    manner:

    And because of their saying (in boast):We killed

    messiahJesus,sonofMary,theMessengerofAllaah;

    -but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the

    resemblanceofJesuswasputoveranotherman(andtheykilledthatman),andthosewhodifferthereinare

    fullofdoubts.Theyhaveno(certain)knowledge,they

    follownothingbut conjecture. For surely, theykilled

    him not (i.e., Jesus, son of Mary). But Allaah raised

    him(Jesus)up(withhisbodyandsoul)untoHimself

    (and he Jesuspeacebe upon him is in theheavens)..

    AndAllaah isEverAll-Powerful,All-Wise. (Quraan4:157-158)

    The Jews themselves, together with the entire Christian

    world, believe that he was crucified. As proofs against

    theirviewsandtoprovethetruthoftheMuslimverdict

    through the Bible, I prepared the following set of

    questions based on the Book of Mathew in the NewTestamentofBible.(Chapter26and27):
