The Aramaic word for "God" in the language of Assyrian Christians is lh, or Alaha.

Arabic speakers of all Abrahamic faiths, including Christian and Jews, use the word "Allah" to mean "God". The Christian Arabs of today have no other word for 'God' than

'Allah'.
JESUS IN THE QURAN AND IN THE BIBLE
[Compiled by: Bro. Ahmad Erandio]

We Muslim believe that Jesus (pbh) was one of the mightiest Messenger of Allah (swt), that he was the Christ that he was born miraculously without any male intervention that he gave life to the dead by Allah (swt) permission and he healed those born blind and the lepers by Allahs permission. In fact no Muslim is considered Muslim if he does not believe in Jesus (as). The Muslim does not take the name of Jesus, in his own language, without saying Issa alayhis salam(as) meaning (Jesus peace be upon him every time the Muslim mention the name Jesus [as] without these words of respect, he would be considered disrespectful. In the Holy Quran Jesus [as] is mentioned by name 25 times while Prophet Muhammad (sas) 5 times only. And Mary the mother of Jesus (as) mentioned many times in the Holy Quran. The prophet Muhammad (sas) said: Jesus (as) is the nearest to me MARY IN THE QURAN: We Muslim love and respect Mary, in fact in the Holy Quran there is a special chapter of Mary which is called [Surah Maryam], but in the scriptures before you will find books name after; Mathew, Luke, Mark, John, Peter, Paul and two score more obscure names, but not a single one is that of Jesus or Mary. O MARY! VERILY ALLAH [swt] HAS CHOSEN YOU: Quran 3:42 And remember when the angel said: O Mary! Verily Allah [swt] has chosen you, purified you and chosen you above the women of the Alamin [mankind and jinn]. O MARY! SUBMIT YOURE SELF:

Quran 3:43 O Mary! Submit youre self with obedience to your Rab and prostrate yourself, and bow down along with those who do so. THE MIRACULOUS BIRTH OF JESUS THE ANGEL CAME AND INFORMED MARY Quran 19:19 [The angel] said I am only a messenger from your Rab, [to announce] to you the gift of a righteous son. ALLAH GIVES MARY A GLAD TIDING OF A WORD FROM HIM: Quran 3:45 Behold the Angels said: O Mary, Allah gives you glad tidings of a word from Him: [Be and he was] his name will be Masih Isa ibn. Maryam (Christ Jesus the son of Mary), held in honor in this world and in the Hereafter and of (the company of those nearest to Allah [swt]). THE WORD CHRIST, CHRISTOS, MESSIAH AND MASIHI HE SHALL SPEAK TO THE PEOPLE: Quran 3:46 He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity and he shall be (the company) of the righteous. MARY SAID: O MY LORD HOW SHALL I HAVE A SON? Quran 3:47 - She said: O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me? He said: So [it will be] for Allah creates what He wills. When He has decreed something He says to it Be and it is. ALLAH WILL TEACH HIM THE BOOK AND WISDOM Quran 3:48 - And Allah will teach him the Book and Wisdom the Taurat [The Law of Moses] and the Injeel [The Gospel of Jesus]. APPOINT HIM: Quran 3:49 [And appoint him] a Messenger to the children of Israel. [Mathew 15:24] AND SHE WITHDREW AFTER THE ANGEL INFORMED HER:

Quran 19:22 So she conceived him and she withdrew with him to a far place. [BETHLEHIM VALLEY (part of Palestine) ABOUT 4 TO 6 MILES FROM JERUSALEM]. THE PAINS OF CHILDBIRTH: Quran 19:23 - And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a date-palm. She said: Would that I had died before this, and had been forgotten and out of sight.

GRIEVE NOT: Quran 19:24 - Then [the angel Jibril] cried unto her from below her, saying: Grieve not: your Rab has provided a water stream under you. SHAKE THE TRUNK OF DATE-PALM: Quran 19:25 - And shake the trunk of date palm towards you, it will let fall fresh ripe-dates upon you. I SHALL NOT SPEAK TO ANY HUMAN BEING Quran 19:26 - So eat and drink and are glad. And if you see any human being, say: Verily! I have vowed a fast unto the Most Gracious [Allah swt] so I shall not speak to any human being this day. Ex ------- > WHEN SHE BROUGHT THE BABY TO HER PEOPLE: Quran 19:27 - Then she brought him [the baby] to her people, carrying him. They said: O Mary! Indeed you have brought a thing Fariyy [a mighty thing]. THE PEOPLE WERE MOCKING MARY AND THE CHILD: Quran 19:29 Then she pointed to him. They said: How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle? THE FIRST MIRACLE WAS HAPPEN WHEN HE SPOKE TO THE PEOPLE: Quran 19:30 He (Jesus) said: Verily I am a slave of Allah [swt], He has given me the scripture [Gospel] and made me a Prophet;

AND HE HAS MADE ME BLESSED: Quran 19:31 - And He [Allah] has made me blessed whosesoever I am, and has enjoined on me Salat [Prayer], and Zakat, as long as I live. AND JESUS SAID: DUTIFUL TO MY MOTHER: QURAN 19:32 - And dutiful to my mother, and made me not arrogant, unblest.

WE GAVE JESUS A CLEAR SIGN: Quran Al-Baqara, 2:87 - We gave Jesus [as] the son of Mary a clear sign and strengthened him with the Holy Spirit. THE FOUR MIRACLES OF CREATION: (1) ADAM [as] - Without a father and mother. Quran 30:20 - And among His signs is this, that He created you [Adam] from dust, and then [Hawwa (Eve) from Adams rib, and then his offspring from the semen, and] behold you are human beings scattered! (2) EVE [Hawwa] Without a mother, but came from Adams rib. Quran 30:21 - And among His sign is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may find repose in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy. Verily, in that are indeed signs for a people who reflect. (3) THE TRIBES Came from Adam and Eve, with a sperm, and from both male and a female the chosen woman was born whose name Mary the mother of Jesus was. Quran 49:13 - O mankind We have created you from a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one another. Verily, the most honorable of you with Allah [swt] is the [believer] who has At-Taqwa [i.e. he is one of the Muttaqun (the pious. See V.2:2)]. Verily, Allah [swt] is AllKnowing, All-Aware.

(4) JESUS [as] - Without a father, but came from the body of Mary.

So, the creation of Jesus [as] and Eve are the same exactly, Jesus [as], without a father but came from the body of Mary, and Eve, without a mother but came from the body of Adam [as] (by Allahs permission). THE SIMILITUDE OF JESUS BEFORE ALLAH: Quran 3:59 - Say the similitude of Jesus [as] before Allah [swt] is that of Adam [as] He created him from dust, then said to him: be and he was. THE NEAREST TO THE BELIEVERS: Quran 5:82 - Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say: "We are Christians:" because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world and they are not arrogant. EAT THEIR DAILY FOOD: Quran 5:75 - The Messiah [Isa] (Christ Jesus), son of Mary, was no more than a Messenger; many were the Messengers that passed away before him. His mother [Mary] was a Siddiqah [i.e. she believed in the Words of Allah (swt) and His Books (See V.66:12)] - They both used to eat food. NO EXCESSES IN YOUR RELIGION: Quran 4:171 O people of the scripture [Christians and Jews]! Do not exceed the limits in your religion, nor say of Allah [swt] aught but the truth. The Messiah Isa [Christ Jesus], son of Mary, was [no more than] a Messenger of Allah [swt] and His Word, [Be! and he was] which He bestowed on Mary and a spirit [Ruh] created by Him; so believe in Allah [swt] and His Messengers. I HAD NO RIGHT TO SAY: Quran 5:116 - And behold! Allah will say "O Jesus the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men `worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah"? He will say: "Glory to Thee! Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing Thou wouldst indeed have

known it. Thou know what is in my heart though I know not what is in Thine. For thou knows in full all that is hidden. AND I WAS A WITNESS OVER THEM: Quran 5:117 - "Never said I to them aught except what Thou didst command me to say to wit `Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them whilst I dwelt amongst them; when Thou didst take me up thou was the Watcher over them and Thou art a Witness to all things. JESUS SAID: SERVE HIM ALONE: Quran 19:36 - And lo! Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So serve Him. That is the right path.

AI-IKHLAS -------------- >

MUHAMAD (PBUH) SAID: I AM THE NEAREST TO JESUS Narrated by Abu Huraira I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "I am the nearest of all the people to the son of Mary, and all the prophets are paternal brothers, and there has been no prophet between me and him (i.e. Jesus)." Hadith 4.651 Narrated by Umar I heard the Prophet saying, "Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians praised the son of Mary, for I am only a slave. So, call me the Slave of Allah and His Apostle." Hadith 4.654

JESUS IN THE BIBLE

JESUS IS A PROPHET Mathew 21:11- And the multitude said, this is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
6

John 6:14- Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said this is of a truth that the prophet that should come into the world. JESUS IS A TEACHER

John 3:2- The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi [Lord] we know that thou art a teacher come from God. JESUS IS A MAN Act 2:22- Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs. 1-Timothy 2:5 - for there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. John 8:40- [Jesus said] But now you seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God. GOD IS NOT A MAN Numbers 23:19 - God is not a man, that he should lie: neither the son of man, that he should repent: Hosea 11:9- I am God not a man.... JESUS SAID: I DID NOT COME TO DESTROY THE LAW Mathew 5:17- Think not that I am come to destroy the Law I am not come to destroy but to fulfill. JESUS OFFERED PRAYER Hebrew 5:7- Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared. Quran 48:29 Thou wilt see them bow and prostrate themselves (in prayer) seeking Grace from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure. On their faces are their marks (being) the traces of their prostration. This is their similitude in the Torah (The Law of Moses); and their similitude in the Injeel (The Gospel of Jesus) is: like a seed which sends forth itblade then makes it strong; it then becomes thick and it stands on its own stem (filling) the sowers with wonder and delight. As a result it fills the Unbelievers with rage at him. Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds Forgiveness and a great Reward].

JESUS SAT ON THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD

Mark 16:19- Then after the Lord had spoken unto them; he was received up into heaven and sat on the right hand of God. JESUS SAID: THERE IS ONE GOD Mark 12:29- Jesus said: Here O Israel, The Lord OUR God is ONE God. Mark 10:17-18 - As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. "Good teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?" And Jesus said to him, Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. Matthew 19:16-17 Then a man came to Jesus and said, "Good Master, what good deed should I do to gain eternal life?" And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. JESUS CHRIST WHOM THOU HAST John 17:3- And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. IF IN THIS LIFE ONLY WE HOPE IN CHRIST 1-Corinthians 15:19- If in this life only we hope in Christ we are all men most miserable. DIDST THOU SAY UNTO MEN WORSHIP ME AND MY MOTHER Al-Maidah 5; 116 And behold! Allah will say "O Jesus the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah"? He will say: "Glory to Thee! Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing Thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou know what is in my heart though I know not what is in Thine. And for they knew in full all that is hidden. JESUS SAID: NEVER SAID I TO THEM Al-Maidah 5:117- "Never said I to them aught except what Thou didst command me to say: Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them whilst I dwelt amongst them; when Thou didst take me up thou was the Watcher over them and Thou art a Witness to all things.

JESUS (PBH) IS A PROPHET Maryam 19:30 He said: "I am indeed a servant of Allah: He hath given me revelation and made me a prophet; 19:31- "And He hath made me blessed whosesoever I be and hath enjoined on me Prayer and Charity as long as I live; An-Nisa 4:171- O people of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah and His Word which He bestowed on Mary and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His messenger. Say not "Trinity": desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is One Allah: glory be to him: (for Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs.
