JESUS IS GOD “THE WORD FROM ALLAH” ACCORDING TO THE QURAN

1. Allah says Jesus is the WORD

2. The Bible says that the Word is God
   Allah says that Jesus in the Quran is the WORD that came from Him. This means that the origin of Jesus is not human, but rather the Word that comes from God. The very same Quran says that the Word of Allah has no beginning, meaning the Word of Allah has always been with Allah and was not created. (Allah’s word is eternal) See Surah 6:115, Surah 10:64, Surah 18:27.

Let’s read the verses from the Quran which state that Jesus is the WORD:
Surah Al Imran 45: “When the angels said: O Mary! Indeed Allah gives you good news of a Word from Him. His name will be the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, held in honor in this world and the Hereafter, and of those nearest to Allah.”

The Quran acknowledges that Mary had a child THROUGH THE WORD OF ALLAH. Therefore, Jesus’ origin is the WORD and not simply human. Refer to Surah Al Imran verse 45.

Surah An-Nisaa 171: “O People of the Book! Do not go to excess in your religion, nor say anything about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and His WORD which He conveyed to Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers, and do not say ‘Three.’ Cease! (It is) better for you. Allah is only one God. Glory be to Him! (Far Exalted is He) above having a son. His is whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And Allah is sufficient as Disposer of affairs.”

Allah continues to say that Jesus is HIS WORD. Therefore, Jesus, who is the Word of God, was with God always. See also Surah 6:115, Surah 10:64, Surah 18:27.

What does the Bible say about the WORD?

THE BIBLE SAYS THE WORD IS GOD

John 1:1:
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

In John chapter 1, verse 1, we are taught that the WORD was with God in the beginning before anything was created. At the same time, the Quran says that Allah created Jesus by the Word which was with Allah from the very beginning.

I would like you to know that the Quran, which says that Jesus was created from the WORD, was written 632 years after the Bible. This means the Bible was written first, and then the Quran followed.

ALLAH TELLS YOU, WHO HAVE DOUBTS:
If you do not believe what Max Shimba says, then ask the People of the Book. We Christians and Jews are the People of the Book. Allah means that the People of the Book—that is, us Christians and Jews—have the right and authority to verify the claims of the Quran as true or false. Read:

Surah Yunus 94:
“If you are in doubt concerning what We have revealed to you, then ask those who read the Book before you. The truth has certainly come to you from your Lord, so do not be among those who doubt.”

This verse from Surah Yunus, which was revealed in Mecca and translated by Sheikh Ali Muhsin Al-Barwani, confirms that the People of the Book are those with the authority to verify the truth of the Quran. I therefore confirm that JESUS IS THE WORD, and THE WORD IS GOD, as these were stated 632 years before the revelation of Surah Yunus in Mecca and can be found in the Gospel of John, chapter 1, verse 1.

Allah tells Muhammad in Surah Yunus verse 94 that if Muhammad has any doubts about the truth that Jesus is the Word and the Word is God, then Muhammad should ask Christians: “Are these claims of Allah true?” The Bible is complete and affirms, without any doubt, that Jesus is the Word and the Word was with God before the beginning. Allah Himself also admits that Jesus is the Word which was with God even before the beginning.

Today, I have answered the question of Muslims: Is Jesus God? Both the Quran and Allah say that Jesus is the WORD, and the Bible says that the WORD IS GOD.
