3 - Are there proofs indicating that 'Isa spread his call to people in India and Afghanistan and Sindh and Iran ?
A: The principle relied upon in such matters is the Book of Allah and the authentic Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), not reason; because the issue is purely a matter of report, and not history; because history is not to be trusted due to its not being transmitted through connected chains of narration whose narrators are reliable, and therefore lying is prevalent in it. And there is nothing in the Qur'an indicating that 'Isa (peace be upon him) spread his religion in the aforementioned countries, and no hadith has been established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), to our knowledge, indicating that. What is established in them is only that Allah sent him to the Children of Israel and that he conveyed to them the message of his Lord. It is well known that the Christian religion was threatened with danger from the Jews after Allah raised Jesus, the son of Mary, to Himself, and that its spread was not written for it except through the government of the Romans. This is a historical matter, and knowing it does not lead to any benefit of importance.
