At the same time, unlike Christians, Muslims do not believe that Mary preserved her virginity after childbirth, that is, they deny her Ever-virginity, and also believe that during childbirth she suffered and cried out: "Oh, if only I had died before that and been forgotten" (Quran 19:23).

Muslims think that Jesus was an ordinary man, like Adam (Quran 3.59) and had a prophetic mission. He was sent only to the people of Israel with the following revelation: "Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord!" (Qur'an 5:117), and also: "O children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah to you, confirming the truth of what has been revealed to me in the Torah, and announcing the Messenger who will come after me, whose name will be Ahmad" (Qur'an 61:6). Ahmad is one of the forms of the name Muhammad.

In Islam, it is recognized that Jesus performed miracles: "I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. I will make you of clay in the image of a bird, and I will blow into it, and it will become a bird according to the will of Allah.45 I will heal the blind and the leper, and I will revive the dead with the permission of Allah. I will let you know what you eat and what you keep in your homes. Indeed, in this is a sign for you, if you are believers." (Qur'an 3:49). In addition, among His miracles in the Qur'an is what He said as a child,46 and that through His prayer Allah brought down a table with a table from heaven in order to convince the Apostles: "Behold, the Apostles said: 'O Jesus, son of Mary! Can your Lord bring down a table for us from heaven?" He said, "Fear God if you are believers." They said, "We want to eat from it, and our hearts will be at rest, and we will know that you have told us the truth, and we will be witnesses of it." Jesus the son of Mary said, "Allah our Lord! Bring down for us a table from heaven! It will be a feast for the first of us and for the last, and a sign from You. Allah said: "I will send it down to you, but whoever of you is an unbeliever, I will punish him with the punishment with which I do not punish any of the worlds." (Qur'an 5:111-115).

The Qur'an says that Jesus received from Allah a scripture called the Gospel, "in which is guidance and light, and with confirmation of the truth of what has been sent down before him in the Torah" (Qur'an 5:46), and that Allah "strengthened Jesus with the Holy Spirit" (Qur'an 2:87).

Islam categorically denies that Jesus is God and the Son of God: "Those who say that Jesus, the son of Mary, is God, do not believe. Say, 'Who has authority over anything with Allah if He wants to destroy Jesus, the son of Mary, and his mother, and those who are on the earth, all of them?'" (Qur'an 5:17), "And the Christians said, 'Christ is the Son of God.' These words in their mouths are like the words of those who did not believe before. May Allah smite them! How disgusted they are!" (Qur'an 9:30). "Jesus Christ, the son of Mary, is only the messenger of Allah and His word which He threw to Mary and His spirit... Indeed, Allah is only one god. More praiseworthy than He is to have a child." (Qur'an 4:171).

Muslims, trying to explain the obvious contradiction between the Koran and the Gospel, say that the Christians of the first centuries did not profess the Triune God, did not worship Christ as either God or the Son of God (but only a prophet), that He was not crucified and, accordingly, was neither the Redeemer nor the Savior of mankind, but all this appeared much later, in the third and fourth centuries, as a distortion of His original teaching. According to them, under the influence of these distortions, the original text of the Gospel was subsequently corrupted (Qur'an 3:78-79).

Here are just some of the most typical examples of this kind of statement: "Christ came with the true religion, but those who came after him deified him and mixed his pure teaching with the false one that came from themselves, and invented a new religion, which they called 'Christianity'."47 Jesus transmitted to his people the Gospel that had been orally revealed to him in its original form. The apostles also preached it orally. Then they mixed in it the exposition of the life of their prophet with the revealed psalms of the Gospel... Among the thousands of Greek manuscripts, there is not a single one written before the fourth century A.D.48."

The crucifixion and death of Jesus are also denied: "And because of their words: 'We killed Jesus Christ, the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah,' and they did not kill him or crucify him, but it only appeared to them... They didn't kill him... nay, Allah has lifted him up to Himself: for Allah is great and wise." (Qur'an 4:157-158).

Muslims admit that the Jews wanted to crucify Jesus, but they believe that they crucified another person by mistake, and Allah took Jesus to himself and he is now in heaven. Before the end of the world, he would appear a second time, kill the villain Dajjal, and preach Islam.

Muhammad taught: "Soon, very soon, the son of Mary will come down to you as a just judge. He will break the crosses, kill the pigs, abolish the tax on the Gentiles and increase the wealth so much that no one will covet it anymore" (Bukhari, 3469). Since Muslims believe that Christians have distorted the teachings of Christ, it is natural that, according to their ideas, the appearing "Jesus" will oppose Christianity – hence the motif of "breaking crosses" as well as the belief that "on the day of resurrection he will be a witness against them (Christians)" (Qur'an 4:159).

In another hadith, Muhammad says: "When Jesus, the son of Mary, comes, he will marry, he will have children. He will be on earth for 45 years and will be buried with me, in my grave. And I will rise with Jesus from the same grave." It is said that Jesus marries a woman of an Arab tribe after he kills Dajjal. She will give birth to a girl who will die. And he himself will die in a few years.49

After that, "Isa" will be buried in Medina, where a grave has been specially prepared for him. Muhammad's will to leave a place for Jesus on his left hand was fulfilled, and it is still preserved.
