Hello I am just asking for any guidance. I do a lot of research on the Abrahamic faiths. I struggle between them. Respect to all the faiths I see the truths and beauties in all of them. As far as what I practice I have been doing a lot of research on Islam. I am particularly interested in the differences between Christianity and Islam. It seems a lot is in common other than the big one that Jesus is God. I have heard both sides and it’s fascinating. Both sides have great points. I’ve listened to many scholars on both sides debate this.
After a while I got paralyzed by all this information, so I decided to just learn on my own and read up and make a decision with what evidence was there. This was my conclusion
Isa or Jesus 1. Fulfills the Jewish prophecy of the Messiah 2. Performs probably the most impressive miracles in the Bible and Quran 3. He initiates judgement day like he’s the one who returns according to both religions. 4. Every prophet is Jewish until after Jesus.
To me, being unbiased and just reading both the Bible and the Quran. Jesus seems like the most powerful and important prophet. Based off all the evidence I feel like Jesus is a little more important than just a regular prophet.
What also confused me is that Jesus seems pretty important. A lot of Islamic scholars talk about how important and great he is, but why do I feel he is not promoted in Islam as much as Mohammad? It feels like Mohammad is the poster child, and I understand he’s the final prophet and all, but Jesus is the quote unquote messiah. That sounds like he should be the poster child in my opinion. At the very least can Muslims understand why people believe Jesus is God? You don’t have to adopt the belief too but doesn’t it make sense why people follow Jesus? I am just trying to understand. Jesus sounds like the Tom Brady of the Abrahamic faiths. Like he’s the GOAT.
Not super related but I researched what’s the most common name amongst Muslims, and surprise it’s Mohammad. All scholars say the prophets are equal but it really doesn’t feel like that.
