According to Islamic beliefs, Jesus is a prophet and a revered religious figure. However, Muslims reject the idea that Jesus is Allah or the son of Allah. Instead, they uphold the belief in Tawhid (belief in the Oneness of Allah) which says that there is only one true God. Muslims highly estimate Jesus. He is a messenger of Allah who was born miraculously, but he is a human being with no divine properties.

In Islam, emphasizing that Jesus was born without a father, but by Allah’s direct Command (“Be” and he was created), signifies submitting to Allah’s Will and understanding His Power. Furthermore, the Qur'an teaches that idolizing anyone besides Allah constitutes Shirk (associating others with Allah) – which is an unforgivable sin.

Thus, from an Islamic view, denying Jesus’ divine nature does not detract from his unique position as an esteemed Prophet of Allah and a preacher of ethical Islamic teachings such as compassion, equality, and justice.


Islam, like Christianity, recognizes the importance of Jesus in the world. Muslims believe that Jesus (may the peace of Allah be upon him) was a human Prophet of Allah. The foundation of Islam is the belief in Tawhid or the Oneness of Allah. In the Islamic faith, Jesus is regarded as an important Prophet or Messenger of Allah, but he is not seen as God or a divine being.

The Islamic view of Jesus is quite different from the Christian view of Jesus. While Christianity believes that Jesus is the son of Allah and a part of the Holy Trinity, Islam absolutely denies the concept of the Trinity. Muslims believe that Jesus is a mortal human being who was chosen by Allah (Glorified be He) to be a prophet and deliverer of His Message. Jesus’ miraculous birth to Virgin Mary was believed to be a sign from Allah to the Children of Israel; it does not give him any divine attributes.

Muslims regard Jesus as one of the great prophets who was sent to guide the Children of Israel. According to the Quran, Jesus was sent to confirm the teachings of previous prophets and to warn people to follow Allah’s Commandments. Muslims believe that Jesus performed some miraculous works with the Permission of Allah, such as healing the blind and the sick and raising the dead to life. But Muslims also believe that Jesus' abilities were God-given. They were a sign of Allah’s Power and happened by Allah’s Will and Permission.

The Quran recognizes Jesus as a Messenger of Allah, and does not ascribe any divine qualities or powers to him. The Quran refutes the belief that Jesus died on the cross, abandoned. The Quran states that Allah (Glorified be He) raised Jesus to Himself, and he will return in the last days as a just leader who will establish justice on the earth.

In conclusion, Islam does not treat Jesus as God, but purely as a Prophet of Allah with no divine nature or power. While Muslims do not deny Jesus’ great eminence as a prophet and teacher, they make it clear that considering him Allah is a grave sin against Allah Himself. Muslims follow Jesus’ teachings and believe in his second coming, but they disagree with the Christian’s belief that Jesus Christ was divine. Islam urges Muslims to devote their entire worship and gratitude towards the One and Only True God, Allah.
