I guess Jesus being the son of God was metaphorical all this timeMuslims like to take the scripture/words stating God having a “son” or Jesus being the “begotten” son literally
The Quran is more like the uncorrupted Final Testament that is meant to correct the errors in the Bible and Old Testaments and guied all of humanity, not just the Jews.Islam brings nothing new to the story of the Bible. It’s like a movie sequel or spin off side story that isn’t needed and never should’ve been made as it but it fits it’s purpose I guess in the the bigger picture of things
There are no spiritually inspired writers for the Quran. Everything in there was spoken by Prophet Muhammed PBUH as revealed to him. But there isn't a single direct quote from Jesus in the Bible.
Everything is at best second or third hand and at worst just random things put in there by those writers mentioned earlier.
So the Bible is closer to fanfiction than reality
More like a correction and continuation of Judaism and Christianity.islam is like a remix of Judasim with a focus on Jesus
Idk where you got this idea from but Islam was going to come regardless if Jesus was successful with the Jews or not.Everyone except Jews regard Jesus to at least be a “good man” historically and most honor his words/teachings even if they don’t believe him to be the son of god/god in flesh/the messiah/king etc...
Muslims believe none of these things about Jesus but they have to respect him as a prophet by default because it would be harder (basically impossible) to say he was just a false prophet and remain any credibility or followers.
In Islam and Christianity, it says that he was sent to Jews specifically while Prophet Muhammed PBUH was sent to all.
You're not making the case you think you're making. Jesus was regarded as a magician and other bad stuff while he was alive and the same for Moses and other Prophets.outside of Muslims, Muhammad isn’t really respected as a prophet or even seen as a good role model based on his life.
Muhammad obviously became the more “infamous” and controversial historical figure especially if we are counting both the positive and negative influence/impact he has had on the world
in that case then maybe you have a point
That's a rejection of their righteous message. The fact that people respect the Biblical Jesus should worry you. Why isn't he as hated when he was alive?
Jesus became like MLK. His message watered down (biblical corruption) and his image literally whitewashed.
Prophet Muhammad's revelation, the Quran, and his teachings are still intact with no corruption and he has no image to whitewash.
BTW, he's usually well respected by academics, not by ignorant people.
