Do Muslims reject Jesus

Answer 1

No, it does not. The Koran contains several passages about Jesus, and it teaches that Jesus was a prophet. The Christian concept of messiah is not contained in the Koran and is not taught in Islam. The Koran also teaches that Muhammad is the greatest prophet, but not the messiah in the Christian sense.

Answer 2

A:No. The concept of Messiah was in any case a Jewish concept, being a hoped-for person who would save the Jewish people. Islam adopted much of the New Testament story, but regards Jesus as an important prophet, not the Messiah.

__________________________________________________________________

Answer BYes, Muslims; per Quran teachings, believe in prophet Jesus the Messiah but don't believe in him as God or son of God and don't believe in the Trinty.

Quran says (English meaning translation):

{[And mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allah gives you good tidings of a word from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary - distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near [to Allah]. (45) } (Quran, chapter 3, verse 45)

and says:

{O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, "Three"; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs. (171)} (Quran chapter 4, verse 171)

ANSWER CIslam teaches that the Messiah is the "Mahdi": he is not Jesus - they are NOT the same.

Answer 3

Misconception: Muslims reject Jesus

Background: Some think that Muslims do not believe in Jesus or think negatively of Jesus.

Jesus is considered a prophet and a messenger of God, like others, e.g. Abraham, Moses, Noah [see 2:136, 4:163, 61:6]. The Quran however strongly rejects Jesus being part of a divinity or anything more than a human being [see 4:171, 5:17, 5:72, 5:75, 10:68, 19:30-31]. Jesus' message was simply a continuation of the message of monotheism and doing good, like prophets before him. Jesus is one the most mentioned prophets in The Quran.
