Isa (Jesus): According to the Quran Islam is the only religion in the world today that truthfully and completely accepts Isa (Jesus) as one of the great Prophets of God without any doubts. According to the modern researchers and writers Muslim views about Jesus are clearer and more realistic than those of many modern day Christians.

And if Allah had so willed, those succeeding (generations) would not have fought each other after clear Signs (revelations) had come to them. But they (chose to) differ; some of them believing, and others disbelieving. And if Allah had so willed, they would not have fought each other; but Allah does what He desires. [Chapter 2:253] And (Allah sets forth the example of) Maryam (Mary), the daughter of Imran who guarded her chastity - so We breathed Our Spirit (through angel Gabriel) into her <b>...</b>
