Shaykh Hasib Noor - Jesus: Son of Mary - Islamic Version


In Islam, Jesus is understood to be the penultimate prophet and messenger of God (Allah) and therefore holds great importance in the Islamic faith. But how similar and/or different is the Islamic version of the story of Jesus from that of the Christian tradition? This lecture by Shaykh Hasib Noor looks to share the Islamic version of the story of Jesus, son of Mary.


I am placing this lecture up because I believe it is one of the clearest explanations I have heard of the Muslim Jesus. It is a very interesting lecture, and very well delivered too.

As people, we need to understand each other. Without understanding, there can be no harmony. It doesn’t matter whether we are of the Christian faith, of the Islamic faith, or of no faith at all, it is always good to see things from another’s perspective.

Watching this is well worth your time. Even if you don’t agree with all of it, you will certainly enjoy it. – Mark

Interfaith Healer: The Surprising Role of Jesus in Islam


THE NEW YORK TIMES: How did a Jewish preacher who became the Christian Messiah also become one of the most admired figures in the Quran? Mustafa Akyol, a Turkish journalist and contributing opinion writer for The International New York Times, sets out to explore this apparent conundrum.

The result will come as something of a revelation to many non-Muslim readers, since Jesus is revered in Islam’s sacred text as a great teacher and prophet, while his mother, Mary, gets more ink — and praise — than in all four New Testament Gospels put together. » | Lesley Hazleton | Friday, March 3, 2017

The Muslim Jesus │ History Documentary │National Geographic



What a mess our politicians have created! A tangled web that is becoming impossible to untangle. Has this occurred because our leaders in recent decades have been ignorant of history? Or has it occurred because they have not cared about the heritage of Westerners and their way of life? Islam and Christianity are immiscible. Just as democracy and Islam are immiscible. What will happen from here on in is in the lap of the gods. Which culture will win out in the end? Probably the culture that outbreeds the other, and probably the culture which is unyielding in its beliefs. The culture committed to its way of life. – © Mark
