We hear about defamation of religions from the U.N.H.R.C. and in December of 07, the U.N. General Assembly passed a resolution condemning it. We are familiar with Muslims complaining that their Prophet has been blasphemed. You are about to learn of Islams blasphemy concerning your Saviour. Gentle reader, put all fire, choke and spill hazards securely aside, this information may shock you.

The Islamic Center of Pittsburgh: What do Muslims think about Jesus ?

Muslims respect and revere Jesus (P.B.U.H) and await his Second Coming. They consider him one of the greatest of Gods messengers to mankind.

What does Islams canon of scripture say about Jesus? [Emphasis added.]

3:59Verily, the likeness of Iesa (Jesus) before Allah is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: Be! and he was.

3:61Then whoever disputes with you concerning him ['Iesa (Jesus)] after (all this) knowledge that has come to you, [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus)] being a slave of Allah, and having no share in Divinity)

4:159And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), but must believe in him ['Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), as only a Messenger of Allah and a human being]

19:30He ['Iesa (Jesus)] said: Verily! I am a slave of Allah, He has given me the Scripture and made me a Prophet;

43:59He ['Iesa (Jesus)] was not more than a slave. We granted Our Favour to him, and We made him an example to the Children of Israel (i.e. his creation without a father).

23:91. No son (or offspring or children) did Allah beget, nor is there any ilah (god) along with Him;

4:157-158And because of their saying (in boast), We killed Messiah Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allah, but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of Iesa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) ]: But Allah raised him ['Iesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allah is Ever AllPowerful, AllWise.

61:14O you who believe! Be you helpers (in the Cause) of Allah as said Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), to AlHawarn (the disciples): Who are my helpers (in the Cause) of Allah? AlHawareen (the disciples) said: We are Allahs helpers (i.e. we will strive in His Cause!). Then a group of the Children of Israel

believed and a group disbelieved. So We gave power to those who believed against their enemies, and they became the uppermost.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir: Allah Gives Victory to the Believing Group (So, We gave power to those who believed against their enemies, and they became the victorious (uppermost).) through the victory that Muhammad gained over the religion of the disbelievers, which brought the dominance of their religion. This is the wording in his book for the Tafsir of this honorable Ayah. Similarly, An-Nasai collected this statement of Ibn `Abbas in his Sunan. Therefore, the Ummah of Muhammad will always be prevalent on the truth until Allahs command (the Final Hour) commences, while they are on this path. The last group of them will fight against Ad-Dajjal along with `Isa, peace be on him, according to Hadiths in the authentic collections.

I have now displayed to you proof from the Quran, Hilali & Khans translation [linked to nine parallel translations] that, according to Islam, Jesus was:

1. human2. not divine3. not the son of God4. Alahs slave5. not crucified6. not killed7. not resurrected8. a warrior

Wait, there is more.

Sahih Bukhari 4.55.651Narrated Abu Huraira:

I heard Allahs 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).

Muhammad said that he is half brother to Jesus! Can he possibly top that one? This is a long hadith, but the full context is necessary to comprehending its enormity. The most essential clauses are highlighted.

Sahih Bukhari 6.60.236Narrated Abu Huraira:

Some (cooked) meat was brought to Allah Apostle and the meat of a forearm was presented to him as he used to like it. He ate a morsel of it and said, I will be the chief of all the people on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know the reason for it? Allah will gather all the human being of early generations as well as late generation on one plain so that the announcer will be able to make them all-hear his voice and the watcher will be able to see all of them. The sun will come so close to the people that they will suffer such distress and trouble as they will not be able to bear or stand. Then the people will say, Dont you see to what state you have reached? Wont you look for someone who can intercede for you with your Lord Some people will

say to some others, Go to Adam. So they will go to Adam and say to him. You are the father of mankind; Allah created you with His Own Hand, and breathed into you of His Spirit (meaning the spirit which he created for you); and ordered the angels to prostrate before you; so (please) intercede for us with your Lord. Dont you see in what state we are? Dont you see what condition we have reached? Adam will say, Today my Lord has become angry as He has never become before, nor will ever become thereafter. He forbade me (to eat of the fruit of) the tree, but I disobeyed Him . Myself! Myself! Myself! (has more need for intercession). Go to someone else; go to Noah. So they will go to Noah and say (to him), O Noah! You are the first (of Allahs Messengers) to the people of the earth, and Allah has named you a thankful slave; please intercede for us with your Lord. Dont you see in what state we are? He will say. Today my Lord has become angry as He has never become nor will ever become thereafter. I had (in the world) the right to make one definitely accepted invocation, and I made it against my nation. Myself! Myself! Myself! Go to someone else; go to Abraham. They will go to Abraham and say, O Abraham! You are Allahs Apostle and His Khalil from among the people of the earth; so please intercede for us with your Lord. Dont you see in what state we are? He will say to them, My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before, nor will ever become thereafter. I had told three lies (Abu Haiyan (the sub-narrator) mentioned them in the Hadith) Myself! Myself! Myself! Go to someone else; go to Moses. The people will then go to Moses and say, O Moses! You art Allahs Apostle and Allah gave you superiority above the others with this message and with His direct Talk to you; (please) intercede for us with your Lord Dont you see in what state we are? Moses will say, My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before, nor will become thereafter, I killed a person whom I had not been ordered to kill. Myself! Myself! Myself! Go to someone else; go to Jesus. So they will go to Jesus and say, O Jesus! You are Allahs Apostle and His Word which He sent to Mary, and a superior soul created by Him, and you talked to the people while still young in the cradle. Please intercede for us with your Lord. Dont you see in what state we are? Jesus will say. My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before nor will ever become thereafter. Jesus will not mention any sin, but will say, Myself! Myself! Myself! Go to someone else; go to Muhammad. So they will come to me and say, O Muhammad ! You are Allahs Apostle and the last of the prophets, and Allah forgave your early and late sins. (Please) intercede for us with your Lord. Dont you see in what state we are? The Prophet added, Then I will go beneath Allahs Throne and fall in prostration before my Lord. And then Allah will guide me to such praises and glorification to Him as He has never guided anybody else before me. Then it will be said, O Muhammad Raise your head. Ask, and it will be granted. Intercede It (your intercession) will be accepted. So I will raise my head and Say, My followers, O my Lord! My followers, O my Lord. It will be said, O Muhammad! Let those of your followers who have no accounts, enter through such a gate of the gates of Paradise as lies on the right; and they will share the other gates with the people. The Prophet further said, By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, the distance between every two gate-posts of Paradise is like the distance between Mecca and Busra (in Sham).

Muhammad has cast himself as superior to Jesus! Notice the chain of succession of prophets, Muhammad,

being the final prophet, is superior.

I have saved the worst for last. What will Jesus do when he returns? Bukharis collection of authentic hadith is informative.

Sahih Bukhari 3.34.425Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allahs Apostle said, By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, son of Mary (Jesus) will shortly descend amongst you people (Muslims) as a just ruler and will break the Cross and kill the pig and abolish the Jizya (a tax taken from the non-Muslims, who are in the protection, of the Muslim government). Then there will be abundance of money and no-body will accept charitable gifts.

What is the meaning of break the cross and kill the pig? Can it mean anything less than the destruction of Judiasm & Christianity? If you harbor such hope, you are sadly deluded, as you will see from this next tafsir.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir: Another HadithHe will break the cross, kill the pig, and banish the Jizyah and will call the people to Islam. During his time, Allah will destroy all religions except Islam and Allah will destroy Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal (the False Messiah).

Can it possibly get any worse? They claim that Jesus was totally human, not divine, not Gods son and that he will destroy Christianity. What is worse than that. Genocide! Islam teaches that Jesus will commit genocide! I discovered this information by following a link in an article by Ibn Misr at Sons Of Apes And Pigs. I will quote an ayat, followed by Ibn Kathirs Tafsir of that ayat, which makes my case beyond any doubt. .

7:167And (remember) when your Lord declared that He would certainly keep on sending against them (i.e. the Jews), till the Day of Resurrection, those who would afflict them with a humiliating torment. Verily, your Lord is Quick in Retribution (for the disobedient, wicked) and certainly He is OftForgiving, Most Merciful (for the obedient and those who beg Allahs Forgiveness).

Allah will torment the Jews, so? Until the Day of Resurrection; then what happens? The tafsir has a shocking revelation.

Ibn Kathirs Tafsir: Eternal Humiliation Placed on the Jews Isa, son of Mary, will kill the Jews. This will occur just before the end of this world.

Do you fully comprehend what you have just read? Another hadith will provide some clarity.

Sahih Bukhari 4.52.177 Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allahs Apostle said, The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.

Muslims must hunt down and kill the last Jew as a prerequisite to entering Paradise to enjoy their Houris & rivers of wine. And Jesus Christ will lead them in that bloody battle.

To summarize Islams characterization of our Saviour:

1. human2. not divine3. not the son of God4. Alahs slave5. not crucified6. not killed7. not resurrected8. Muhammads inferior half brother9. a warrior10.genocidal11.destroyer of Christianity.

Exactly what grounds does Islam have for complaint of blasphemy??? Please print this article and give a copy to your Priest, Pastor or Rabbi. They need to be informed, to understand the true nature of Islam; it is not the innocent, touchy~feeley equal pathway to God portrayed by the multiculturalists.
