They were both Prophet's who brought the message of God to humanity, along with Moses and other lesser known messengers.. . [003:053] "Our Lord! We believe in what You have sent down, and we follow the Messenger ['Îsâ (Jesus)]; so write us down among those who bear witness (to the truth, i.e. Lâ ilâha illallâh – none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh)." . . [003:054] And they (disbelievers) plotted [to kill 'Îsâ (Jesus) ['alayhis-salâm]], and Allâh planned too. And Allâh is the Best of those who plan. . . [003:055] And (remember) when Allâh said: "O 'Îsâ (Jesus)! I will make you sleep and raise you to Myself and clear you [of the forged statement that 'Îsâ (Jesus) is Allâh's son] of those who disbelieve, and I will make those who follow you (monotheists, who worship none but Allâh) superior to those who disbelieve [in the Oneness of Allâh, or disbelieve in some of His Messengers, e.g. Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam], 'Îsâ (Jesus), Mûsâ (Moses), or in His Holy Books, e.g. the Taurât (Torah), the Injîl (Gospel), the Qur'ân] till the Day of Resurrection. Then you will return to Me and I will judge between you in the matters in which you used to dispute." . . [003:056] "As to those who disbelieve, I will punish them with a severe torment in this world and in the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers." . . [003:057] And as for those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh) and do righteous good deeds, Allâh will pay them their reward in full. And Allâh does not like the Zalimûn (polytheists and wrong doers). . . [003:058] This is what We recite to you (O Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam]) of the Verses and the Wise Reminder (i.e. the Qur'ân). . . [003:059] Verily, the likeness of 'Îsâ (Jesus) before Allâh is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: "Be!" – and he was. . . [003:060] (This is) the truth from your Lord, so be not of those who doubt. . . [003:061] Then whoever disputes with you concerning him ['Îsâ (Jesus)] after (all this) knowledge that has come to you [i.e. 'Îsâ (Jesus) being a slave of Allâh, and having no share in Divinity], say (O Muhammad [sal-Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallam]): "Come, let us call our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves – then we pray and invoke (sincerely) the Curse of Allâh upon those who lie."
