Jesus (peace be upon him) is not the begotten son of God, but rather he is a prophet and messenger. This view is supported by the Bible in many ways: References to Jesus (peace be upon him) as the “son of God", such as in Mark 1:1, were added in later manuscripts, and do not appear in the earliest copies. If Jesus (peace be upon him) was the son of God, why would these edits have been necessary? Codex Sinaiticus - See The Manuscript The Bible calls many people “sons of God”, always in a purely metaphorical sense. Examples of this can be found in: Luke 3:38 Exodus 4:22 2 Samuel 7:13-14 Jeremiah 31:9 Deuteronomy 14:1 Since all of these verses are metaphorical, there is no basis for the claim that Jesus (peace be upon him) is the son of God. Jesus (peace be upon him) is called a prophet many times, and even refers to himself as such: John 4:19 Matthew 21:11 Luke 13:33 The Bible refers to the messiah as a “servant” many times, a description shared by Jesus (peace be upon him); the word “son" is never used for the messiah. Just two examples of the messiah being called “servant” are: Isaiah 41:2 Isaiah 52:13 Jesus (peace be upon him) is quoted as saying that God is “my Father and your Father", indicating that this is metaphorical, not literal. In addition, the prayer that Jesus (peace be upon him) is said to have taught his followers is “Our Father", again implying that the idea of “Fatherhood" is metaphorical. John 20:17 Matthew 6:9 Luke 11:2 If Jesus (peace be upon him) was coeternal was God (as the Gospel according to John claims), then the terms “father" and “son" would lose their meaning; a father has to come before his son. All praise and worship be only to Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala).
