Frequently Asked Questions

1. Jesus

1.1. According to the Qur’an, claiming that Jesus is the Son of God is blasphemy?

You sustain that Jesus is the Son of God. Now, according to the Qur’an this is blasphemy: “And yet they say: ‘The All-Merciful has taken to Himself a son!’ You have uttered a thing most terrible! The heavens will nigh convulse at the mention of it, the earth is split asunder…” (Qur’an XIX; Mary,88-92)

The Qur’anic verse reported here: “And yet they say: ‘The All-Merciful has taken to Himself a son!’ You have uttered a thing most terrible! The heavens will nigh convulse at the mention of it, the earth is split asunder etc…”, one should note that the expression: “The All-Merciful has taken to Himself a son” does not appear in the Bible nor in the Qur’an does it concern Christ. It is a pagan expression which fits the pagan mentality of the Arabian Peninsula. Who does this verse concern? Who are those who said: “The All-Merciful has taken to Himself a son”?

Christians have never said, nor do they ever say: “God has taken to Himself a son”. This Qur’anic verse does not therefore accuse the Christians, it is clearly aimed at the polytheist idolaters of Mecca who confounded Jesus with their idols.

The explanation of this verse of the Qur’an XIX; Mary 88-92 is found in chapter 2 of “Look of Faith at the Qur’an”, under the title “The Messiah and His Title of Son of God”. Read mainly from the paragraph that begins: “How to understand what the Qur’an reveals in the following Surah on the unity of God: ‘Say, He is God, Unique…’” (Qur’an CXII; True Devotion,1-4)

Verses 88-92 of the Surah “Mary”, like verses 1-4 of the Surah “True Devotion”, refer to the pagans of Mecca concerning the mythological gods and their imaginary sons; these verses are not aimed at Christians regarding the Messiah. Read the rest of the text indicated.

So the verses 88-92 of the Surah “Mary” is not aimed at Christians, but at the (polytheist) idolaters of Mecca, since God chose Mary TO HAVE A SON FROM HER, who has no Father but the One God.

This is also the testimony inspired by God in the Gospels. Moreover, the Qur’an comes as a confirmation of the Gospels (Qur’an IV; Women,47). Any Qur’anic interpretation which does not confirm the Gospels and the Torah invalidates the Qur’an, and would indeed be reason to put an end to God's patience and "the heavens will nigh convulse, the earth -because of this fallacious interpretation- is split asunder…" as the Qur’an expresses in the verse you quote.

Some believe that God "has taken to Himself a son" by adopting Jesus after His birth, as He did with the prophets after their births. Yet this is not the case and provokes the wrath of God after all He has patiently explained in His Divine Revelation concerning the birth of His Messiah, whether in the Bible or in the Qur’an. Here is why the “heavens nigh convulse” because of the incomprehension of some with an obtuse mentality, unable to grasp the divine intention. For God in the Qur’an, clearly revealed that He created the Body of Jesus “with His Word put into Mary’s womb” (Qur’an III; The Family of Imran,45). He did not do so with any other prophet but Jesus. Why? Because Jesus, He alone, is the Word of God, His only Son through Mary who remained a virgin. So, “The Lord of Mercy has not taken to Himself a son” by mating physically with a partner, as the polytheists understood, who deserve God’s wrath (see Qur’an VI; Cattle,101).

Jesus has no other Mother but Mary, nor another Father but God. The One who has God as Father is of God, the Son. We must be logical, not fanatical, or closed to divine intention if we do not want to deserve the just wrath of the Divine Judge.

Let us say who is the Mother of Jesus.
Let us say who is the Father of Jesus… according to the Qur’an of course.
Let us say whom Jesus is the Son of, who are both his parents, always according to the Qur’an.
Understand who can!

God’s just anger cracks the heavens open and comes down upon those who refuse to grasp the divine intention and insist on making the Qur’an a contradiction to the Gospels.

1.2. Why do you say that Jesus is God?

Why do you say that Jesus is God?

It is Divine Revelation, not us, that affirms that Jesus is God Incarnate. We firmly believe in it. See our text: "The Divinity of Jesus".

A letter written by a correspondent to the website and our answer.

Hello,
Your site is very interesting, and I congratulate you for your attempt to unite Muslims, Christians and Jews towards the only religion accepted by God, which does not require clergy and which is El-Islam, ie Submission. I was enlightened by the Book of Revelation thanks to your website, a book I knew very little of, and I am beginning to believe more and more in the fact that the Beast is Israel. All seems to be in concordance; besides, I myself have seen passages from the Qur’an going in the same direction.

That said, a problem arises before my eyes in your belief in the fact that Jesus is God, or God incarnate, and that Pierre II (Peter II) has seen Jesus attesting to him that he was Son of God! Whereas God himself says that we must not associate to Him a Son! Should I believe in what God revealed, or in a probable optical illusion, or satanic?

Am I facing some people who idealize the created instead of the Creator, Jesus and not God, like the Sunnis do with Muhammed and like others do with their idols?

Peter.

Dear Correspondent,

We understand your “reticence” and the “problem that arises in YOUR eyes”, but not to ours. Those that “idealize the created instead of the Creator” have no place among us: We refer you to the text "A Look of Faith at the Qur’an", chapter 4.2; The Messiah and His title of Son of God and chapter 4.3; The Messiah’s Divinity. We rightly speak therein of "what God has revealed", what to which we all “submit”, what the Holy Qur’an came to confirm. “Probable optical or satanic illusion”, or rather, an apparent total blindness from those who turn their backs on the evidence revealed, and their attachment to their own opinion and human philosophy. This is not our concern: We bear witness.

Our testimony bothers many people. We are not here to please, nor to be diplomatic and to yield to compromises… but often to bother and… irritate the disbelievers. You "do not know who you are facing". It is obvious!!!

We know, on the other hand, who we are facing. Wish you a good research and a good outcome. No need to answer until you have read it correctly. If you disagree, we say to you: “Farewell”.

PS: The events will show, after the fall of the Beast, that we were right. “Everyone will therefore see who is the Messiah” (Revelation 1,7).
