@devrim_ozerdinc@MasterMaliq Respect that, and thanks for the honest conversation. I take my path, you take yours. :)
And you're right that at the end we each answer for it.
Salam!
@devrim_ozerdinc@MasterMaliq Makes sense, and that's exactly the crux where we diverge. Honestly, I can't disprove it to you :)
It comes down to which book we take as God's word. For us, God enabled Jesus (pbuh) to be born of a virgin and perform miracles, but the Quran still calls him a Messenger, not God
@devrim_ozerdinc@MasterMaliq Before I answer, I want to clarify what you mean by "Son of God":
- That God created him?
- That he had divine powers because of the miracles?
- That he is God (the Trinity)?
- Something else, please elaborate
@devrim_ozerdinc@MasterMaliq Makes sense about Adam! :)
You will find the answer in Surah 4 Ayat 171
Jesus (peace be upon him) is called a messenger of God, it says "The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was no more than a messenger of Allah," and it ends "God is far above having a son."
@devrim_ozerdinc@MasterMaliq No worries, feel free to ask anything :)
That’s a good point! But we believe it’s a miracle, enabled by God.
The same way Adam was created from the earth with no father or mother. If a miracle made someone divine, wouldn’t Adam be God too?
@devrim_ozerdinc@MasterMaliq Sure, it's Surah 19 Ayah 20: "She wondered, “How can I have a son when no man has ever touched me, nor am I unchaste?”"
For more references you can also check:
- Sura 3, Ayah 47
- Sura 3, Ayah 59
@devrim_ozerdinc@MasterMaliq For reference the Sura in Quran stating Mary was virgin: https://t.co/sXPhledxiN
But idd, we Muslims don't believe Jesus was the Son of God but instead a highly respected Prophet (Peace be upon him)
