Prophets and Messengers / Re: The Meaning of Messiah

« on: January 17, 2014, 03:00:21 PM »

Sallam Alikum Joseph,

Thank You, it makes sense now. Jews and Muslims have the same understanding to the word and meaning The Messiah than what Christians belief and meaning of The Messiah.
I was wondering when my Christian friend asked me if I believed in Jesus the Messiah. After I told her of course, she than told me I than am a Christian, because I believe he was the Messiah.

I had to explain to her my beliefs about Jesus was and not the Trinity. I guess her beliefs are that is anyone who believes Jesus indeed was the Messiah that it is also a belief of the Trinity, Astaghfirullah.   
As I respect and believe people have the right to believe and follow any faith they want, my heart and mind could never believe or comprehend Allah has a son, or Jesus is Allah.

Thank You, May Allah bring us closer to him every day!

Prophets and Messengers / The Meaning of Messiah

Dear Talib,

Peace to you.

Please see EVIDENCE 9 in the article below, entitled "RE-INTERPRETATION OF VERSE 43:61 COMMONLY USED TO SUPPORT THE SECOND COMING OF PROPHET JESUS (pbuh)" where I have discussed the verse in question.

I hope that helps, God willing.

Salam Alikum Joseph,

I am not sure if I am doing this right as of posting the question here.

I had a question about Jesus. In the english Quran translation it is written as Jesus the messiah. In Arabic it is "l-masīḥu"
 So in the Quran, discribing Jessus as the Messiah, is it the same Messiah meaning that Christians believe in? Jews consider the Messiah to be the ones was promised to them,  (they are still waiting, although Allah states it is Jesus who is the Messiah) and the Christians believe he is the Savior when you say Messiah. So what does it mean in the Arabic as the Quran put it.
