Summary:Muslims cannot compare or associate anything or anyone with G-d, yet we must maintain a high regard for Christ Jesus, son of Maryam. His birth was special, as was his life, his work, his message, his death, and (or, as will be) his resurrection. In this article, I will stay with the Qur'anic revelations associated with Jesus, the Christ, and his birth. In the Qur'an, Allah tells Maryam that she will be blessed with a Word from Him. I suggest that this Qur'anic reference and the Biblical reference to the Christ as Word may be an interfaith bridge to understanding.
