Did you know that Jesus is one of the most revered prophets in
the Quran, mentioned by name more times than the Prophet
Muhammad? To truly understand the historical and spiritual ties
between the world's two largest religions, we must explore the
fascinating role of Jesus in Islam.

In this episode, we move beyond modern political divides to
triangulate the legacy of Isa ibn Maryam (Jesus,
son of Mary) from three perspectives:

Science: We look at historical and textual
criticism of late antiquity. How do historians analyze the
oral traditions and apocryphal texts that influenced both
early Christianity and the Quranic narratives of Jesus?

️ Philosophy: The concept of the "Word"
(Logos/Kalimah). We explore how Greek philosophy influenced
early Christian theology, and how the Quran reconstructs this
by defining Jesus uniquely as a "Word" and a "Spirit" from
God, without the implications of the Trinity.

/️/️ Spirituality: A profound exploration of
Jesus in Islam. We discuss the virgin birth,
his role as the Messiah (Al-Masih), his unique miracles (like
speaking from the cradle), and how the Quran defends the
honor of his mother, Maryam, with an entire chapter dedicated
to her.

In this episode you will learn:

The profound similarities and critical theological
differences between the Christian and Islamic views of Jesus.

Why Isa ibn Maryam is not just a historical
figure in Islam, but a crucial part of Islamic eschatology
(the end of times).

How understanding this shared reverence can serve as a
powerful bridge for empathy, dialogue, and mutual respect in
a divided world.
