Isa, peace be upon him

A servant and messenger of Allah, born to Maryam with no father, supported with clear signs, raised up and not crucified.

Maryam, daughter of Imran, was chosen by Allah. Jibril gave her news of a pure boy. She said: how can I have a son when no man has touched me? He said: so Allah creates what He wills.

Isa spoke in the cradle. He healed the born-blind and the leper and gave life to the dead by Allah's leave, and was given the Gospel. Still he said: I am the servant of Allah; He gave me the Book and made me a prophet.

They plotted to kill him; it was made to appear so, and Allah raised him. A Muslim believes he is a messenger, not a god, and that he will return at the end of time as a just ruler, as in authentic hadiths.
