Assalaam alaikoem,
Hierbij een bestandje waar ik het kort geleden over had gehad. Ik kon hem niet als bijlagen op de site zetten. Dus sorry...ik moet ff uitvogelen hoe deze site werkt etc. Heb ik nog niet gedaan...Vandaar
Misschien hebben jullie er wat aan. Ik heb het uit een bijlagen gehaald van een Engelse Quraan dat ik in Somalie had gekocht op vakantie.
Zelf vond ik het interessant.

Jesus and the deviel in de bible:
IN the new testament of the bible, in the fourth chapter of the gospel according to Mathew, The sixth and seventh verses clearly indicate that jesus is an obedient mortal and God is the Master and Lord according to his saying in the seventh verse: 'It is written again, thou shalt not tempt the Lord, thy God, "
in this chapter we read that the Devil actually carried the Messiah, and took him from place to place. How can the Devil carry God? Glory be to Allah; He is above such blasphemy!
Then the devil orders him to prostrate before him and worship him, even tempting him with worldly possessions. How can the Devil even dare such an audacity with God? When the Devil wanted Jesus to comply with his orders, he (Jesus) replied by saying that it was written (in the previous Boos):
'Thou shalt worship the Lord, thy God; And Him only shalt thouw serve.'
_Matthew 4:10.
Childeren of God
Jesus never called himself son of God as far as I know__ but he used to call himself the ‘son of Man’(Mark2:10) although he heard himself being called by that name he did not object__ as assumed in the Bible __ and did not consider the title exclusively for him.
According to the Biblical term in the Old and New Testaments, ever God fearing righteous person is called ‘Son of God’. In Matthew 5:9 we read:
‘Blessed are the peace-makers, for they shall be called the childeren of God.’
IN Matthew 5:45 __
‘That ye may be childeren of your Father which is in heaven..’
God The Father
IN Matthew 5:48__
‘Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.’
In Matthew 6:1__
‘..otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.’
Matthew 7: 21__
‘Not every one that sayeth unto me (Jesus), Lord,Lord< shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doeth the will of my Father, which is in heaven.’
N.B The word ‘Lord her was stranslated as Rabb in the Arabic verson of the Bible so that people may be convinced that Jesus is God! But if one studies the rest off the verse, one will note that the verse bears testimony to the subservience (to God’s Will) of the Messiah(Jesus). Therefore the correct translation shoult be:
‘ Not every one that sayeth to me, O my Master , shall enter tinto the kingdom of heaven, but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.’
It is obvious from the avove readings from the Bible that the term ‘Father is used for God in numerous places in the Bible. It is never used exclusively for Jesus.
Matthew 11:25__
‘At that time Jesus answered and said, ‘I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent and has revealed them unto babes.’
Jesus the Worshipper
Matthew 14:23__
‘ And when he had sent the multitudes away, he wnt up into a mountain apart to pray..’
I say: if Jesus is Gof or a part of God then why did he pray? In fact, prayer is alwayys from a submitting, needy and dependent one for the Mercy of Almighty Allah as mentioned in the Quran:
‘O mankind! It is you who stand in need of Allah but allah is Rich (free of all wants and needs), Worthy of all praise’(V35:15)
And in V19:93 of the Quran:_
‘There is none in the heavens and the earth but comes unto the Most Gracious(Allah) as a slave.’
A Biblical Story
Matthew 15:22-28__
‘And behold, a woman of Canaan came out he same coasts and cried unto him, saying, ‘ have mercy on me, O lord, thouw son of David: my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.’But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying; ‘Send her away, for she crieth after us. ‘ But he answered and said, ‘I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.’
Then came she and worshipped him, sayin, ‘Lord, help me.’But he answered and said, ‘it is not meet to take the childeren’s bread and to cast it to dogs,’
And she said, ‘Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crubs which fall from their masters’table.’Then Jesus answered and said unto her, ‘O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thouw wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.’ “
In this story about a woman from Canaan there are noteworthy points:
(1) Lack of mercy and love charged against Jesus (if the incident is reported correctly)
(2) Degraded discrimination in regard to the uplifting of his tribe and not for the others.
(3) Tribal pride of descendance and prejudice against others and calling them dogs.
(4) An ignorant polytheist woman debated with him and won him over.
Jesus A prophet of ALLAh
Matthew 19:16-17
‘And behold, one came and said unto him, ‘Good master, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life? ‘And he said unto him,
‘why callest thouw me good? (there is) none good but one, (i.e) God, but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.’
In the above verses we note this acknowledgment of his submissiveness (to Allah’s Will).
Matthew 21:45-46__
‘And when the chief priests and pharisees had heard his parable, they percived that he spoke of them. But when thy sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude because they took him for a prophet.’
Here it is proved that all those who believed in Jesus during his life-time did not believe in him being God or the Son of God or one in the doctrine of Trinity; but they believed in him as being a Prophet only. This is indeed one of the strongest points of evidence against those who believe in the Divinity of Jesus (incarnation of God) if only they Pondered.
Jesus: A servent of Allah
Matthew 23:8__
‘But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your master, even Jesus, and all ye are brethern.’
Here it is clearly proved that Jesus was servant of Allah, and that there is only One Master and He is Allah. In the Arabic version of the Bible this verse has been translated so that Jesus is meant to be the master whereas the English rendering is nearer the original sense.
Matthew 23:36
‘But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heavens, but my Father only.’
This is a definite proof that the final Hour is unknown to any but Allah, thus Jesus’knowledge is imperfect like al other men; Allah alone is All-Knowing. Omniscient.
Matthew 26:39 __
‘And he (Jesus) went a little farther, and fell on his face and prayed, saying, ‘O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me:
nevertheless not as I will, but as Thou wilt.’”
We note here that the person speaking is unaware of Allah’s Will and realized the fact that he is a servant of Allah. He (Allah) Alone can cause the change.
Matthew 27:7-8__
‘And they took counsel and bought with them the potter’s field to bury strangers in. Wherefore that field was called the Field of Blood, unto this day.’
From these verses we understand that the Bible (the New Testament) was not written during Jesus’life-time but long after the occurrence of the events described, having been retained in the memory of the people.
Matthew 27: 46__
‘And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, ‘Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? (MY God, My God, why hast thouw forsaken me? )”
This is accourding to their (christians) assumption that Jesus cried in a loud voice saying the above words while he was being ccrucified. This is a great insult as such words could only come out from a Prophet of Allah because Allah never breaks His Promise and His Prophets nevr complained against His Promise.
Jesus: Preacher of Monotheism(Tauhid)
IN john 17:3
‘And this is life eterna, that they might know theee, the only true God, and Jesus Crhist whom Thou has sent.’
In Mark 12:28-30__
‘And one of the scribes came and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, which is the first commandment of all? And Jesus answered him: ‘The first of all commandments is; hear O Israel, the Lord thy God is One Lord: and thou shalt love the Lord, thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strenght: this is the first commandment.’
In Mark 12:32__
‘And the scribe said unto him, ‘Well, Master thou hast said the truth: For there is One God; and there is none other but He.’
IN Mark 12:34
‘..he (Jesus) said unto him, ‘Thou art not far from the kinkdom of God...”
In these verses, Jesus (peace be upon him) himself had testified that Allah is the One God, there is none other than Him and that whoever believes in His Oneness, he is near the Kingdom of Allah. Therefore whoever associates partners with allah or believes in the Trinity is far away from the Kingdom of Allah, and woever is far from the Kingdom of Allah he is the enemy of Allah.
Matthew 24:36__
‘But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of the heaven, but my Father only.’
I say: A similar text was quoted from Matthew which is exactly as proclaimed by the Quran in that none knows when the Hour will come except Allah. This establishes the facht that Jesus was subservient tot Allah and that he had nog share in Divinity: That he was an incarnation of God, was an innovation by the people of Canaan.
In John 20:16__
‘Jesus said unto her, ‘Mary’. She herself, and sayeth unto him, ‘Rabboni’, which is to say, Master, Jesus saith unto her, ‘Touch me n ot:
For I am not yet ascended to my Father; but go to my brethren, and say unto them, Iascend unto my Father and your Father; and to my God and your God. ‘Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she has seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things unto her. ‘
In the above narrative Jesus clearly testified that Allah is his God and Their God, making no difference between him and them in the worship of the One. Allah. Whoever believes that Jesus is God has indeed blasphemed against Allah and betrayed Jesus and all the Prophets and Messengers of Allah.
Biblical Prophecy on the advent of Muhammad(vzmh)
John 14:15-16__
If you love me, keep my commandments. And i will pray the Father and He shall give you another Comforter that he may abide with you forever.’
Muslim theologians have said that ‘another Comforter’is Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah; and him to ‘abide forever’means the perpetuity of his laws and way of life (Shariah) and Book (Quran) which was revealed to him.
John 15:26-27__
‘But when the comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: And ye also ashall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning. ‘
John 16:5-8__
‘But now I go my way to him that sent me and none of you asketh me whither goest thou? ‘But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. Nevertheless I tell you the truth; for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you: but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and approve righteousness and judgment. ‘
John 16:12-14
‘I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now. How be it when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself: but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and he shall shew it unto you.’
John 16:16__
‘A little while and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.”
Muslim theologians have stated that the person who is described by Jesus to come after him__ in the above verses __ does not comply with any other person but Muhammad(vzmh). This person whom Jesus prophesied will come after him is called in the Bible ‘Parqaleeta’ This word was deleted by later interpreters and translatoers and changed at times to ‘Spirit of Truth, and at other times, to ‘Comforter’and sometimes to ‘Holy Spirit’. The original word is Greek and its meaning is ‘one whom people prase exeedingly. ‘The sense of the word is applicable to the word ‘Muhammad’(in Arabic).
Finality of proofs on the fabriaction of the story of the cross
(1) The Bible testifies to the fact that Jesus was known among the Jews; he used to preach and deliver sermons in the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem. It was therefore, unnecessary to hire Jew for thirty pieces of silver to direct them to him as related in Matthew.
(2) It is related that one of the twelve disciples names Judas Iscariot was hired to direct the Jews to Jesus. They then sentenced him after which Judas was greatly ashamed and dissociated himself from their act and then committed suicide. All this took place within twenty four hours. The contradictions are obvious.
(3) The cleares proof which alone is sufficient to discredit this story is when the Jews passed the sentence of death against Jesus and intended to get the approval of the governor, Pontius Pilate.
Matthew 27:11-14
‘And Jesus stood before the governor: The governor asked him, saying, Art thou the king of the Jews!’And Jesus said unto him, ‘Thou sayest’”And when he was accused of (by) the chief priests and elders he answered nothing. Then said Pilate unto him, Heares thouw not how many things they witness against thee? ‘And he answered him never (to) a word...’
The Christians will interpret the above verse mean that Jesus wanted to die on the Cross for the redemption of mankind and for the forgiveness of their sins. If so, Then why did he ask to turn away that cup from him( i.e death)? Why did he cry out while on the Cross (As they assume): ‘O lord, why hast thou forsaken me?’ How could he have remained silent when the truth was being challenged? He was known for h is soul-inspiring sermons challenging the learned Jewish Rabbis. No sane person can believe in this. If the story of the Cross is disproved then the very foundation on wich Christianity is baded, will be demolished.
Muslims believe that Jesus was not crucified by the Jews as revealed in the Holy Quran by Allah in a crystal clear manner V4:157,158__
‘And because of their saying (in boast): ‘We killed Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah’; __ but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but it appeared so to them [the resemblance of Jesus was put over another man (and they killed that man)], and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no 9certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely, thy killed him not (i.e. Jesus, son of Mary). But Allah raised him (Jesus) up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heaven). And Allah is ever all Powerful, All-Wise. ‘
The Jews themselves, together with the entire Christian world, believe that he was crucified. As proofs against their views and to prove the truth of the Muslim verdict through the Bible, I prepared the following set of questions based on the Book of Matthew in the New Testament of the Bible. (Chapters 26 and 27):
(1) Did those who captured Jesus (according to their assumption) know him in person? Or did they not k now him?
Matthew testifies that they did not know him.
(2) Was it during the day or night that he was captured?
Matthew says__it was during the night.
(3) Who was the one that directed them to him?
Matthew says: he was one of his twelve disciples called Judas Iscariot.
(4) Did He direct them free of charge or for a ficed reward of thirty pieces of silver.
(5) What was the condition of Jesus during that night?
Matthew says: He was fearful and prostrated in prayer saying: ‘o God, if it is possible for You to let this cup pass from me, then let it pass, ‘it is incredible that such words could come from a believer in God that has power over all things.
(6) What was the condition of his eleven disciples?
Matthew says: sleep overcame them that night together with their teacher (according to their assumption) out of fear.
(7) Was Jesus contented with their condition?
Matthew says (verse 40-46). He was not satisfied. He used to come to them to wake them up saying: ‘Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is weak.’Then he would come again to find them asleep and he would again wake them up and say the same thing. This weakness could not have been spoken of righteos pupils even if they were pupils of an ordinay pius teacher, let alone the disciples of Jesus, son of Mary.
(8) Did they help him when those fuffians captured him?
Matthew says: they forsook him and fled.
(9) Did Jesus have confidence in his disciples that night?
Matthew says: Jesus informed them that they will all forsake him. Then Jesus said unto them: ‘Verily I say unto thee that this night before the cock crows, thouw shall deny me__ thrice ‘Peter said unto him, ‘although I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee.’Likewise also said all the disciples. And so it happened.
(10) How did those fuffians capture him?
Matthew says: They came to him with swords and staves after they were directed to him by a Jew, then they captured him as described in verse 57: ‘And they that had laid hold on Jesus, led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the elders were assembled.’
There they passed the sentence of death on him. The ruffians then took him away, spat on his face and struck him with their hands after which they stipped him of his clothes and clad him in scarlet robes, then placed a crown of thorns on his head and took him about, teasing and mocking him. They said to him:
‘You are the king of Israël according to your claim,. ‘They severely degrated him.
(11) Who finally decided to pass the death sentence against him?
Matthew: He was Pontius Pilate, who was at that time the governor of Palestine.
(12) When the ruffians brought that man before the governor and informed him that the priest of the Jews passed the sentence of death by crucifixion according to their law (Torah), did he believe in them without investigation?
Matthew says: He did not believe them but asked that man: ‘is it true what they have said? ‘He remained silent. The question was repeated and he continued to remain silend. He remained silent in view of the truth; it was essentiol for him even if he was not a Prophit to clafify the truth and deny the false accusation of the Jews. The governor’s wife went to the governor and she said to him: ‘Have thouw nothing to do with that just man? For I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.’
The bible states that Jesus delivered lengthely speeches to the Jews rebuking and warning them which amounted to defaming them. Then why was he silent that day? The governor’s intention for asking him awas to stand for the truth.
(13) How was he crucified according to their assumption?
Matthew says: they crucified him between tow thieves both of whoem abused him by saying to him, ‘if you are truthful then save yourself. ‘
(14) This was a great calamity. What did he say while on the cross (addording to their assumption)?
Matthew says 27:46.
Jesus cried with loud voice, sayin, ‘Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? (that is to say,) my God, my god, why hast thou forsaken me? ‘
This is a blatant declaration of disbelief according to all theologicial autorities, whoever relats it to a prophet is a disbeliever according to the revealed religions.
Almighty allah, in the Quran warns, the Jews and the Christians blasphemp; that Jesus is an incarnation of God (Allah)or the son of God (Allah)or rejecting him totally; and that they must believe in him as a Messenger of Allah only:
‘And there is no ne of the people of the scripture (Jews and Christians) but must believe in him (Jesus, son of Mary, as only a Messenger of Allah and a human being) before his (Jesus or a Jew’s or a Christian’s) death (at the time of the appearance of the angel of death).
And on the day of Resurrection, he (Jesus) will be a Witness against them. ‘(v4:159)

And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and approve righteousness and judgment. ‘
John 16:12-14
‘I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now. How be it when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself: but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and he shall shew it unto you.’
John 16:16__
‘A little while and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.”
Muslim theologians have stated that the person who is described by Jesus to come after him__ in the above verses __ does not comply with any other person but Muhammad(vzmh). This person whom Jesus prophesied will come after him is called in the Bible ‘Parqaleeta’ This word was deleted by later interpreters and translatoers and changed at times to ‘Spirit of Truth, and at other times, to ‘Comforter’and sometimes to ‘Holy Spirit’. The original word is Greek and its meaning is ‘one whom people prase exeedingly. ‘The sense of the word is applicable to the word ‘Muhammad’(in Arabic).
Finality of proofs on the fabriaction of the story of the cross
(1) The Bible testifies to the fact that Jesus was known among the Jews; he used to preach and deliver sermons in the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem. It was therefore, unnecessary to hire Jew for thirty pieces of silver to direct them to him as related in Matthew.
(2) It is related that one of the twelve disciples names Judas Iscariot was hired to direct the Jews to Jesus. They then sentenced him after which Judas was greatly ashamed and dissociated himself from their act and then committed suicide. All this took place within twenty four hours. The contradictions are obvious.
(3) The cleares proof which alone is sufficient to discredit this story is when the Jews passed the sentence of death against Jesus and intended to get the approval of the governor, Pontius Pilate.
Matthew 27:11-14
‘And Jesus stood before the governor: The governor asked him, saying, Art thou the king of the Jews!’And Jesus said unto him, ‘Thou sayest’”And when he was accused of (by) the chief priests and elders he answered nothing. Then said Pilate unto him, Heares thouw not how many things they witness against thee? ‘And he answered him never (to) a word...’
The Christians will interpret the above verse mean that Jesus wanted to die on the Cross for the redemption of mankind and for the forgiveness of their sins. If so, Then why did he ask to turn away that cup from him( i.e death)? Why did he cry out while on the Cross (As they assume): ‘O lord, why hast thou forsaken me?’ How could he have remained silent when the truth was being challenged? He was known for h is soul-inspiring sermons challenging the learned Jewish Rabbis. No sane person can believe in this. If the story of the Cross is disproved then the very foundation on wich Christianity is baded, will be demolished.
Muslims believe that Jesus was not crucified by the Jews as revealed in the Holy Quran by Allah in a crystal clear manner V4:157,158__
‘And because of their saying (in boast): ‘We killed Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah’; __ but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but it appeared so to them [the resemblance of Jesus was put over another man (and they killed that man)], and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no 9certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely, thy killed him not (i.e. Jesus, son of Mary). But Allah raised him (Jesus) up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heaven). And Allah is ever all Powerful, All-Wise. ‘
The Jews themselves, together with the entire Christian world, believe that he was crucified. As proofs against their views and to prove the truth of the Muslim verdict through the Bible, I prepared the following set of questions based on the Book of Matthew in the New Testament of the Bible. (Chapters 26 and 27):
(1) Did those who captured Jesus (according to their assumption) know him in person? Or did they not k now him?
Matthew testifies that they did not know him.
(2) Was it during the day or night that he was captured?
Matthew says__it was during the night.
(3) Who was the one that directed them to him?
Matthew says: he was one of his twelve disciples called Judas Iscariot.
(4) Did He direct them free of charge or for a ficed reward of thirty pieces of silver.
(5) What was the condition of Jesus during that night?
Matthew says: He was fearful and prostrated in prayer saying: ‘o God, if it is possible for You to let this cup pass from me, then let it pass, ‘it is incredible that such words could come from a believer in God that has power over all things.
(6) What was the condition of his eleven disciples?
Matthew says: sleep overcame them that night together with their teacher (according to their assumption) out of fear.
(7) Was Jesus contented with their condition?
Matthew says (verse 40-46). He was not satisfied. He used to come to them to wake them up saying: ‘Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is weak.’Then he would come again to find them asleep and he would again wake them up and say the same thing. This weakness could not have been spoken of righteos pupils even if they were pupils of an ordinay pius teacher, let alone the disciples of Jesus, son of Mary.
(8) Did they help him when those fuffians captured him?
Matthew says: they forsook him and fled.
(9) Did Jesus have confidence in his disciples that night?
Matthew says: Jesus informed them that they will all forsake him. Then Jesus said unto them: ‘Verily I say unto thee that this night before the cock crows, thouw shall deny me__ thrice ‘Peter said unto him, ‘although I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee.’Likewise also said all the disciples. And so it happened.
(10) How did those fuffians capture him?
Matthew says: They came to him with swords and staves after they were directed to him by a Jew, then they captured him as described in verse 57: ‘And they that had laid hold on Jesus, led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the elders were assembled.’
There they passed the sentence of death on him. The ruffians then took him away, spat on his face and struck him with their hands after which they stipped him of his clothes and clad him in scarlet robes, then placed a crown of thorns on his head and took him about, teasing and mocking him. They said to him:
‘You are the king of Israël according to your claim,. ‘They severely degrated him.
(11) Who finally decided to pass the death sentence against him?
Matthew: He was Pontius Pilate, who was at that time the governor of Palestine.
(12) When the ruffians brought that man before the governor and informed him that the priest of the Jews passed the sentence of death by crucifixion according to their law (Torah), did he believe in them without investigation?
Matthew says: He did not believe them but asked that man: ‘is it true what they have said? ‘He remained silent. The question was repeated and he continued to remain silend. He remained silent in view of the truth; it was essentiol for him even if he was not a Prophit to clafify the truth and deny the false accusation of the Jews. The governor’s wife went to the governor and she said to him: ‘Have thouw nothing to do with that just man? For I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.’
The bible states that Jesus delivered lengthely speeches to the Jews rebuking and warning them which amounted to defaming them. Then why was he silent that day? The governor’s intention for asking him awas to stand for the truth.
(13) How was he crucified according to their assumption?
Matthew says: they crucified him between tow thieves both of whoem abused him by saying to him, ‘if you are truthful then save yourself. ‘
(14) This was a great calamity. What did he say while on the cross (addording to their assumption)?
Matthew says 27:46.
Jesus cried with loud voice, sayin, ‘Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? (that is to say,) my God, my god, why hast thou forsaken me? ‘
This is a blatant declaration of disbelief according to all theologicial autorities, whoever relats it to a prophet is a disbeliever according to the revealed religions.
Almighty allah, in the Quran warns, the Jews and the Christians blasphemp; that Jesus is an incarnation of God (Allah)or the son of God (Allah)or rejecting him totally; and that they must believe in him as a Messenger of Allah only:
‘And there is no ne of the people of the scripture (Jews and Christians) but must believe in him (Jesus, son of Mary, as only a Messenger of Allah and a human being) before his (Jesus or a Jew’s or a Christian’s) death (at the time of the appearance of the angel of death).
And on the day of Resurrection, he (Jesus) will be a Witness against them. ‘(v4:159)
