2a]
:-> So believe in Allah and His messengers . . . " (Qur'an 4:171; see
also 66:12).
In the above passage Jesus in called by four noble titles. He is the
Messiah, the Messenger of Allah, a Word from Allah, and a Spirit from
Allah. In the same passage, it is clear that the Qur'an seeksto
discourage exaggeration in religion. Further in the same passage,
Allah says:
"Allah is only One God. Faris it removed from His transcendent majesty
thatHe should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all
that is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as Defender" (Qur'"an
4:171).
Refusing to call Jesus son of God is not done with a view to belittle
Jesus. No! On the contrary, it is done to Glorify God, to magnify His
name, and to proclaimHis transcendent majesty.
The Qur'"an confirms that Jesus was born of a virgin.When the angel
announced to Mary, on whom be peace, that she will bear a child, she
said:
"My Lord! How can I have a child when no mortal has touched me"
She received the following reply:
"So (it will be). Allah creates what He will. If Hedecrees a thing, He
says unto it only: Be! and it is. (Qur'"an 3: 45, 47).
In another surah, after relating the incidents surrounding the birth
of the Messiah, the Qur'"an concludes as follows:
"It befits not (the majesty of) Allah that He should take unto Himself
a son. Glory be to Him! When he decrees a thing, He says unto it only:
Be! and it is."" (Qur'an 19:35).
The Qur'an seeks to correct a common misconception in the minds of
people. Many assume that since Jesus had no father then God must be
his father.
Glory be to Allah. He does not father children. He created everyone we
know from a man and a woman. But He created Adam from neither a man
nor a woman. And He created Eve from a man, but not from a woman.
Then, as if to complete the picture, God created Jesus from a woman
but not from a man. God has demonstrated His power to create in every
way.
Allah says:
"Lo! the likeness of Jesus with Allah is as the likeness of Adam. He
created him from dust, then he said unto him: Be!and he is" (3:59).
It is important to realise that Jesus, on whom be peace, never taught
that he is the Son of God. Allah says that those who call Jesus "Son
of God" are following the saying of other people (see surah 9:30).
Jesus taught only what he was commanded(5:117). He himself was quite
pleased with being a servant of Allah (4:172). As a messenger of
Allah, Jesus knew that none in the heavens or the earth can approach
Allah exceptas a slave (19:93).
Finally, those who say that God has a son should know that they have
no warrant for this, but they are saying something without knowledge
(10:68).
In the next part,
God willing, we will see from acareful study of the Bible that Jesus
never called himself God's son.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*

Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
