1 | O People! There is no other deity but Allah! |
2 | The Compassionate, the Beneficent, the Gracious; |
3 | All prayers and homage be to Allah and no other! |
4 | Let the truth be now revealed concerning the great prophet Jesus. |
5 | May honor and peace be forever upon his name and his memory; |
6 | The Christians call this great teacher Jesus, |
7 | While the Hibiru honored the hero Esus. |
8 | The Nazarenes called their leader YahSua. |
9 | The great prophet is all of these names. |
10 | Verily, YahSua was a Son of Man of the line of prophets. |
11 | Yet he is not a deity. |
12 | Thus, Christians who worship Jesus Christ as a god are in error. |
13 | This is against the teachings of Allah. |
14 | No man may be raised up as a god amongst men. |
15 | No man, even a prophet may be considered greater or lesser. |
16 | Thus a true Muslim respects all religions and all wisdom, |
17 | But does not respect such prophets as gods. |
