Was Jesus a Muslim?

Was Jesus a Muslim?

Muslim is someone who Submits his/her Will to God.

Is this What Jesus did and taught?

The foundation of Jesus' message was submission to the will of God, because that is the foundation of the religion which God prescribed for man since the begining of time.

God says in the Chapter Aal Imraan (the family of Imraan), the third chapter of the Qur'an verse 19:

{إنَّ الدِّينَ عِندَ اللَّهِ الإسْلامُ} [آل عمران: 19]

" Truly, the religion in the sight of Allah (God) is Islam (Submission). "

In Arabic Submission to God's will is expressed by the word 'Islam'.

In the Gospel according to Matthew 7:22, Jesus is qouted as saying: " No everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does THE WILL OF MY FATHER in heaven." In this statement, Jesus places emphasis on " the will of my father", submission of the human will to the will of God.

In John 5:30, it is narrated that Jesus also said " I can do nothing on my own authority; as I hear, I judge; and my judgement is just, because I seek not my own will but THE WILL OF HIM WHO SENT ME."

Shabir is the president of the Islamic Information & Dawah Centre International in Toronto where he functions as Imam.

@forgottenmemories63 shutup ur bible sucks i think bush is ur dady

[julio14335]

Abusive language is the only fact, left with Christians...

[forgottenmemories63]

@yamin397 I don't care if guys claim Jesus or all religious Prophets as Muslims but as a Scientifically educated person, I would say you are lying if you claim that Quran has any science.

Muslims in the 10th century definitely contributed to Science, But these had nothing to do with Quran, The Quran is the worst book to look for proof of any Science.

[BELIZEANPROPHET]

Jesus is 15% Spiritual salvation of One God of Power True Love Jehovah; while the Blessed Temple of God Jesus was *The Reincarnation of *ABEL/CREOLE SEED TODAY AS ALL BELIZEAN CREOLE UNIVERSAL SALVATION OF BELIZE; AS THE BRITISH BAY-MEN/CUNNING BEAST SEED AND BOLACK AFRICAN EVE/WOMAN AS ONE! So Jesus is Not a Seed of Man But Only the Temple of God Jesus is a Son of man/Adam; Black Unfaithful Seed of Christ!

My friends do not mess with christians all science came from quran if they do not believe allah leave them bcz on judgement day Jesus(pbuh) will tell them that allah is the god and He is the creator of this universe.

@Zakah1 hahah its the muslims who started the war and torturing other people of different religion. thats why there are SO MANY ZOROASTRIANS, JEWS AND CHRISTIANS in middle east eh? the lies they spread

[Zakah1]

as for killing people, the Prophet Mohammad killed enemy combatants who were attacking Muslims and torturing Muslims for many years, unlike the Bible that says Moses killed women and children and EVEN BABIES, the Quran and Hadith forbid the killing of non-combatants especially children

Only a hypocrite would accept the Moses of the Bible as a true Prophet of God but then complain about the Islamic concept of Jihad which is only retaliation against enemy combatants
