We will defend you, O Esa(Jesus)
May the peace & blessing of Allah(God) be upon you
We truly love you and will defend you with all our heart
We all stand together, with one voice
And we say STOP! Enough is enough
Our eyes are crying and heart is grieving
Someone with no respect, inflict on you an insult
Some put images, some create naked statues of men
And they attribute those to you
Some say that you are black & some say white
They dispute on a subject, they have no knowledge of it
But they insist on their claims with no proof in hand.
It doesn’t matter for us, if you are black or white
You are so dear for us & we give you all respect
Allah(God) loves you and we love you
You are the son of Maryam(Mary), the virgin Maryam(Mary)
The pious, the devout and trust worthy woman
We honor her and give her respect
May the peace and blessings of Allah(God) be upon her
You called people to believe in One God
The Creator of the earthly and heavenly kingdom
To worship Him Alone with no partner
You prayed to Him and this is what we do
You supplicate Him, and this what we do
You obeyed His commands and this is what we do
You never drunk alcohol and we too
You never ate pork and we too
You fasted for Allah(God) and this is what we do
You was from those who submit and surrender their will to the will of Allah(God) =
["Muslims"] and this what we are.
You are the Messiah & The prophet of Allah(God)
We believe in you, respect you and honour you
And how precious you are to us, we cannot tell
We exclaim not only with our words that we love you
We say it sincerely from our heart and we prove it by respecting you.
Really Allah(God) loves you and we love you so much
May the peace and the blessings of Allah(God) be upon you.

1. Islam(Submission to God Alone) is the only non-Christian faith, which makes it an article of faith to believe in Jesus (pbuh). No Muslim is a Muslim if he does not believe in Jesus (pbuh).
2. We believe that he was one of the mightiest Messengers of Allah (swt).
3. We believe that he was born miraculously, without any male intervention, which many modern day Christians do not believe.
4. We believe he was the Messiah translated Christ (pbuh).
5.We believe that he gave life to the dead with God’s permission.
6.We believe that he healed those born blind, and the lepers with God’s permission.
7. We believe in Jesus Christ (pbuh) to be one of the mightiest Messengers of Allah and we also believe in his second coming.
Allah says in the Qur'an regarding Jesus Christ (pbuh):
And remember Jesus the son of Mary said: "O Children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah (sent) to you…” (Surah Saff 61:6)
Infact Islam makes it an article of faith to believe not only in Jesus Christ (pbuh) but all the Messengers that preceded and followed him. By name only twenty-five Messengers are mentioned in the Qur'an. Allah instructs us in the Qur'an:
“O you who believe! believe in Allah and his Messenger and the scripture which He has sent to His Messenger and the scripture which He sent to those before (him). And who denies Allah, His angels, His Books, His Messengers and the Day of Judgment have gone far far astray.” (Al-Qur'an 4:136)
Thus belief in the Messengers, including Jesus (pbuh) is an important belief of Islam. Though Jesus (pbuh) is mentioned by name twenty-five times in the Qur'an, he is also referred with other respectable terms such as ‘Ibne Maryam’ - son of Mary; as ‘Masih’ – translated Christ, as ‘Rasulullah’ - Messenger of Allah, as ‘Abdullah’ – servant of Allah, as ‘a word of Allah’, as ‘a spirit proceeding from Allah’, as ‘a sign of Allah’ and numerous other epithets spread over fifteen different chapters of the Qur'an.
(b) It is also true that the Muslims, on the authority of the Qur'an and the sayings of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) believe in the second coming of Jesus Christ (pbuh). He was the only Prophet of Allah who was raised up alive. Allah says:
‘…They said (in boast) "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary the Messenger of Allah"; but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them; and those who differ therein are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not. Nay Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.’(Al-Qur'an 4:157-158)
Allah mentions the second coming of Jesus Christ (pbuh) in the following verse of the Qur'an:
“And indeed, he (i.e. Jesus) will be (a sign for) knowledge of the Hour, so be not in doubt of it, and follow Me. This is a straight path.” (Al-Qur'an 43:61)
The reason why Jesus (pbuh) is the only Prophet of Allah who was raised up alive by Allah is because he was the only Prophet whose “followers” mistook him as God. They wrongly say that he claimed divinity. Thus he will come back again to this world to clarify all such misconceptions. Says Allah in the Qur'an:
‘And behold! Allah will say "O Jesus the son of Mary! did you say unto men worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah"? He will say: "Glory to You! never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing you would indeed have known it. You know what is in my heart though I know not what is in yours. For You know in full all that is hidden.’ (Al-Qur'an 5:116)
There are no less than seventy Ahadith that speak of the second coming of Jesus Christ (pbuh). In one of the Ahadith, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is reported to have said:
"By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, son of Mary (Jesus) will shortly descend amongst you people (Muslims) as a just ruler and will break the cross and kill the pig and abolish the Jizya (a tax taken from the non-Muslims who are in the protection of the Muslim government). Then there will be abundance of money and nobody will accept charitable gifts.” (Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 3. Hadith no. 425)
It should also be borne in mind that Jesus Christ (pbuh), in his second coming will not be coming with any new message or revelation. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is reported to have said:
"How will you be when the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you and he will judge people (by the Law of the Qur'an and not by the law of the Gospel)”. (Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 4. Hadith No. 658)
