5. Do Muslims believe he performed miracles? YES Muslims, like Christians believe Jesus performed miracles. But these were performed by the will and permission of God, Who has power and control over all things. "Then will God say: ‘O Jesus the son of Mary! recount My favor to you and to your mother. Behold! I strengthened you with the Holy Spirit (the angel Gabriel) so that you did speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. Behold! I taught you the Book and Wisdom, the Law and the Gospel. And behold: you make out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, by My leave, and you breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by My leave, and you heal those born blind, and the lepers by My leave. And behold! you bring forth the dead by My leave. And behold! I did restrain the children of Israel from (violence to you) when you did show them the Clear Signs, and the unbelievers among them said: ‘This is nothing but evident magic' (5:110). 6. Do Muslims believe in the Trinity? NO Muslims believe in the Absolute Oneness of God, Who is a Supreme Being free of human limitations, needs and wants. He has no partners in His Divinity. He is the Creator of everything and is completely separate from His creation. God says in the Quran regarding the Trinity: "People of the Book (Jews and Christians)! Do not exceed the limits in your religion, and attribute to God nothing except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was only a Messenger of God, and His command that He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in God and in His Messengers, and do not say: ‘God is a Trinity.' Give up this assertion; it would be better for you. God is indeed just One God. Far be it from His glory that He should have a son. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth. God is sufficient for a guardian" (Quran 4:171).

I hope you read the history of Roman Empire and how they fought Christians to find out what they did with Prophet Jesus(may peace be upon him) Apostles only one of them had a normal death...when the Roman Empire embraced Christianity in the era of chostateen only for political reasons...The idea of family of God was originally made by the roman empire (Zues false God.Hercules son of God)))) Hope you read your histroy very well ...Regards,

Jesus was referred to as his son... a gift to teach us... another name for prophet. Holy trinity is his connection and authority given to Jesus to teach us. There is God, the authority of his words coming thru Jesus, and the spirit of God being shown thru Jesus so he could perform the miracles. The Father (God), The prophet- messenger with the words(son)- and the (spirit) laid into Jesus to help do God's work. We are ALL God's creations(children and son are a translation of this).

If Jesus is the son of God wouldn't that make him a God too. God says in Holy Quran "If there are Gods other than me(Allah) corruption would occur"(Sorat Al Anbia 22)....... Allah means God in Arabic Regards,

Dear Mr.Dan: Listen to me...we have stories in common with bible we even the same prophets names in Holy Quran and the Holy Quran didn't change we(Muslims) still have the original copy of Holy Quran with no alteration....You know where I'm going with this...and no one has the authority to change the words of God(we keep it the same)...God didn't revealed as a man thru the son or anything like that...and as for the other part the golden cow ...Yes it's mentioned in Holy Quran...If you are talking about the age of prophet Moses...Yes we(Muslims) know this story from Holy Quran

God came and revieled himself as man thru the son.Spoke to man as the Holy Spirit.And is to be worshiped as the one and only true God...I feel that is supposed to be sent as a msg...So people don't start worshiping golden cows,and any other thing again.For there is only one God (Allah) true.

I have no problems with the teachings of the Quran.But there is one thing that bothers me? "Far be it from His glory that He should have a son?" The bible states many times that Jesus is called "The son of God".John3:16-18,John10:30John10:36-38,John5:18-24..Mark,Matthew,Luke,Hebrews?... But now the Trinity...That is NOT worshiping 3 Gods.It's a belief that God revealed himself as ONE God...Manifest in three forms,The Father,the Son,and the Holy Spirit. So I guess you could call Jesus a messenger,for he was...And since a son bears his fathers qualities,calling someone a son was a way of signifying equality.

Dear Mr.Dan my main problem with Christians is that they believe that Jesus is the son of God...God doesn't has a wife...of son if you think that there is a son then it's a family now.(A family of God) and God is one not(3 in 1)...we Muslims respect Jesus as a prophet of God like Abraham, ....,Moses.......and Mohammed(May peace be upon them)
