Interesting Quotes from the Hadith on Jesus Muhammad said Jesus was of red complexion. The Prophet said, "I saw Moses, Jesus and Abraham (on the night of my Ascension to the heavens). Jesus was of red complexion, curly hair and a broad chest. Moses was of brown complexion, straight hair and tall stature as if he was from the people of Az-Zutt." Volume 4, Book 55, Number 648, Narrated Ibn Umar. Muhammad said Jesus said he can't intercede for people. The Prophet said, "Allah will gather the believers on the Day of Resurrection in the same way (as they are gathered in this life), and they will say, 'Let us ask someone to intercede for us with our Lord that He may relieve us from this place of ours.' ...They will go to Abraham who will reply, 'I am not fit for this undertaking,' and mention to them the mistakes he made, and add, 'But you'd better go to Moses, a slave whom Allah gave the Torah and to whom He spoke directly' They will go to Moses who will reply, 'I am not fit for this undertaking,' and mention to them the mistakes he made, and add, 'You'd better go to Jesus, Allah's slave and His Apostle and His Word (Be: And it was) and a soul created by Him.' They will go to Jesus who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking, but you'd better go to Muhammad whose sins of the past and the future had been forgiven (by Allah).' So they will come to me and I will ask the permission of my Lord, and I will be permitted (to present myself) before Him." Volume 9, Book 93, Number 507. Narrated Anas. Also, Volume 6, Book 60, Number 236. This is contrary to the Bible which states that Jesus is our mediator (1 Tim. 2:5) and always lives to intercede for us: Heb. 7:25, says, "Hence, also, He is able to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. Muhammad implies that the Christian doctrine of Jesus as the son of God means God had a wife, demonstrating his lack of understanding of the issue. On the Day of Resurrection, a call-maker will announce, "Let every nation follow that which they used to worship." Then none of those who used to worship anything other than Allah like idols and other deities but will fall in Hell (Fire), till there will remain none but those who used to worship Allah, both those who were obedient (i.e. good) and those who were disobedient (i.e. bad) and the remaining party of the people of the Scripture. . . Afterwards the Christians will be called upon and it will be said to them, 'Who do you use to worship?' They will say, 'We used to worship Jesus, the son of Allah.' It will be said to them, 'You are liars, for Allah has never taken anyone as a wife or a son,' . . . Allah will say, 'I am your Lord.' They will say twice or thrice, 'We do not worship any besides Allah.' " Volume 6,

Book 60, Number 105. Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri, Christian theology has never taught that Jesus was literally the offspring of God the Father. Neither has Christianity ever taught that God has a wife. (The cult of Mormonism has stated such erring doctrines, but it is not considered Christian.) The term Son of God signified Jesus' special and unique relationship with the Father as the Father's representative (Heb. 1:1-3). Muhammad said that Jesus worshiped Allah. Regarding the explanation of the Verse: 'Those whom they call upon (worship) (like Jesus the Son of Mary, angels etc.) desire (for themselves) means of access to their Lord (Allah) as to which of them should be the nearer and they hope for His Mercy and fear His torment.' (17.57) They themselves (e.g. Angels, saints, Apostles, Jesus, etc.,) worshipped Allah, Those Jinns who were worshipped by some Arabs became Muslims (embraced Islam), but those human beings stuck to their (old) religion. Al-Amash said extra: 'Say, (O Muhammad): Call unto those besides Him whom you assume (to be gods).' (17.56) Volume 6, Book 60, Number 238. Narrated Abdullah. Such a statement is only a conjecture. Jesus worshiped YHWH (Yahweh). See John 17. Ibn 'Umar says that to say "Jesus is Lord," is a great sin. Whenever Ibn 'Umar was asked about marrying a Christian lady or a Jewess, he would say: "Allah has made it unlawful for the believers to marry ladies who ascribe partners in worship to Allah, and I do not know of a greater thing, as regards to ascribing partners in worship, etc. to Allah, than that a lady should say that Jesus is her Lord although he is just one of Allah's slaves." Volume 7, Book 63, Number 209. Narrated Nafi'. It is not a great sin and it is taught in the Bible that such a confession is necessary a sign of salvation (Rom. 10:9-10). Muhammad said Jesus spoke while in the cradle The Prophet said, "None spoke in cradle but three: (The first was) Jesus, (the second was), there a man from Bani Israel called Juraij. Volume 4, Book 55, Number 645, Narrated Abu Huraira.
