The word messiah has come from the the word "SIAHAT" which means tourism.Ibn-e-Mariam was called messiah because of his tourist altitude.Jesus used to move from one place to other,town to town,village to village and country to country.Prophets used to move place to place delivering the message of god but no prophet had visited as such areas as Jesus and that is why he is given the name of Messiah by Allah.

Some people call the doctors,healers,helpers as messiah.this is so because The Holy Bible state in some verses that Jesus used to heal the wounds,treat the uncured diseases and put the lives in the dead people.Despite the fact that all these sayings are metaphorical and Jesus did that just as all other prophets of god that is to heal the wounds of spiritual illiteracy,cure the diseases of darkness and alive the dead spirits,the concept of calling a doctor as messiah is spread by the christian doctors and priest during the colonial period who came who came in Africa and Asia under the umbrella of Bible.This has been popular to such extent that ,today every second helper is called messiah.
