“Jesus, or Isa, as he is known in Arabic, is deemed by Islam to be a Muslim prophet rather than the Son of God, or God incarnate. He is referred to by name in as many as 25 different verses of the Quran and six times with the title of ‘Messiah’.” Crucially, Jesus is referred to “as the ‘Word’ and the ‘Spirit’ of God. No other prophet in the Quran, not even Muhammad, is given this particular honour.”
