Question:
Shaykh Salih, I did not single out Isa (peace be upon him) for mention and testimony.
Answer:
As we have previously explained, the Jews and Christians differed regarding Isa, and Allah guided the Muslims to the truth concerning him. As for the Jews, they insulted him with terrible insults and accused him of being the son of a fornicator, and they plotted to kill him, but Allah saved him from them. As for the Christians, they went to extremes in his regard, making him Allah, or the son of Allah, or the third of three, may Allah protect us from that. As for the Muslims, they believed in the truth about him: that he is the servant of Allah and His Messenger, His word which He cast to Maryam, and a spirit from Him. Yes.
