Jesus in Islam: The Prophet Many Christians May Not Know
Who is Jesus Christ in Islam? And why do Muslims honour him as one of God's greatest messengers?
For many Christians, Jesus is central to their faith. But the Islamic understanding of Jesus offers a perspective that many readers may never have fully explored.
In Jesus in Islam: The Prophet Many Christians May Not Know, Jayson Ray introduces readers to the Qur'anic account of Jesus ( Isa ibn Maryam), exploring his miraculous birth, his extraordinary mother Mary, his prophetic mission, and the miracles associated with him.
Through the teachings of the Qur'an and relevant Islamic traditions, this book examines:
Mary, the Mother of Jesus: Her faith, purity, and unique position in Islam.
The Miraculous Birth: The Islamic account of Jesus' birth without a human father.
The Miracles of Jesus: His healing of the sick, raising of the dead by God's permission, and other remarkable signs.
Jesus the Prophet and Messiah: His mission, message, and honoured status in Islamic belief.
The Oneness of God: Why Islam emphasises the worship of Allah alone and understands Jesus differently from mainstream Christian theology.
The Crucifixion Question: What the Qur'an says and how Muslim interpretations approach this important subject.
The Return of Jesus: Islamic teachings concerning his return and the events associated with the end times.
This book also explores the similarities and differences between Islamic and Christian understandings of Jesus, encouraging thoughtful reading, respectful dialogue, and a deeper appreciation of religious perspectives.
Whether you are a Christian curious about what Islam teaches about Jesus, a Muslim seeking to strengthen your understanding of Isa ibn Maryam, or a reader interested in comparative religion, this book offers an accessible introduction to an important subject.
Discover the story of Jesus through the lens of Islam-and explore the prophet many Christians may not know.
