Islam has more or less re-apportioned Jewish and Christian prophets as Islamic prophets and argues that all of these prophets are part of a larger Islamic prophetic tradition. As a result, most of these prophets are highly regarded, but their message in the Qur'anic narrative may be different from that in the Biblical narrative.

What best describes the Muslim view of Hebrew prophets in the biblical Old Testament?

The Muslims regard the Prophets as real, but they believe that the Jews have misunderstood the words of the Hebrew Bible. Some even believe the words of the Hebrew Bible were written down incorrectly. One of the key differences between the Muslim view of the Hebrew prophets and the Jewish and Christian view of these people is that the prophets in Islam are sinless people who never erred in judgment. The Jews and Christians have numerous episodes in the Bible where the prophets commit sin or make errors (such as Lot's act of incest, Moses' initial refusal to speak to Pharaoh, and David's intentional murder of Uriah to get Bathsheba). Islam rejects all of these stories.


Can Christians marry Muslims?

A Muslim man can marry a Muslim. Christian, or Jewish woman (As Muslims believe in the holy books of Torah and the Bible and they believe in Prophets Moses and Jesus and all other God prophets). However, a Christian or Jewish man can't; per Islam religion; marry a Muslim woman (As Christians and Jews do not believe in neither the Quran nor in Prophet Muhammad). In Islam practice, the husband prime responsibility is to cover the family expenses even if his wife works and even if she is earning more money than the husband. In addition, Muslims have faith in the holy books (including Torah and Bible), and in both religions of Judaism and Christianity, and all prophets (including Abraham, Moses, and Jesus) while Jews and Christians do not have faith in Islam, in Quran, and in prophet Mohamed. So, it is logic if husband is Muslim to accept for his Christian or Jewish wife to practice her ritual worships, social activities, and clothing according to her Christian or Jewish religion. However, if the husband is Christian or Jewish he may not accept his Muslim wife to practice her ritual worships, social activities, and clothing according to her Islam religion. That is why a Muslim man can marry a Christian or Jewish girl/woman while a Muslim girl can not marry a Christian or Jewish man. Some others have the view point that any person of any faith can marry anyone they want and that love conquers all, even religion. However, this is true only if you are not committed to a religion with God or not believing in God at all. If you are committed with God through any religion, what so ever, you have to fulfill this commitment. This is in analogy to one committed with an employer through a work contract (despite the difference between commitment in contract with God, the Creator, and commitment in contract with an employer, creature). Does falling in love with someone entitle you not to go for work or not to fulfill your work commitment? The same answer applies to your commitment with God when you fall in love and thinking of marriage. On the other hand, of course you have full right and full choice to select either to fulfill religion commitment or to abandon the religion you committed to and throw it behind. However, choice is responsibility. You should be aware that your choice defines the consequences that you get in front of God on the Resurrection Day. Either one goes to God Paradise or one be Pushed in Hell fire.

What is the role of messiah in Jewish and Christian beliefs?

The Jews and Christians have fundamentally different views of what a Messiah should be. The Jewish view of the Messiah is that he will be a terrestrial monarch of a Jewish Kingdom on Earth and preside over the Earth in a new peaceful era. The Christian view of the Messiah is that he will be a Divine Incarnation and through his own expiation, purge all those who believe in him of their inherent and explicit sins.
