How to Muslim
Muslims love Jesus. In Islam he is Isa, son of Maryam, a prophet of God born to a virgin. He healed the blind and raised the dead by God’s permission, and he will return before the Day of Judgment. Believing in him is not optional for a Muslim. It is one of the six articles of faith.
He belongs to a line of prophets running through Adam, Nuh (Noah), Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses) and on to Muhammad ﷺ, peace be upon them all. The Quran calls him distinguished in this world and the Hereafter, and gave him miracles nobody else was given.
Not as a courtesy to anyone. These are reasons taken straight from the Quran, and each one is referenced.
This is the part people actually came to read, so here it is plainly. The disagreement is about who he was, not about whether he mattered.
Muslims hold that Isa (AS) returns before the Day of Judgment. It is in the hadith in detail, and the Quran points to it.
None of this is diplomacy. Ask any Muslim about Jesus and you will get the same answer: he is loved here, deeply, and always has been.
