The questioner says: Why was Isa (peace be upon him) called al-Masih?
The Shaykh:
Because he wipes over their sores and they are cured by the permission of Allah. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
The blind and the leper; he cures the blind, who is one born without sight, and he cures the leper. Leprosy is a disease for which there is no cure; leprosy has no cure. One of the miracles of Isa (peace be upon him) is that he cures lepers.
