According to the Qur'an Issa is greater, or superior to Muhammad in every major category.

Jay looks at 4 verses in the Qur'an to prove that even in the Qur'an, when compared to Muhammad, Issa (the Qur'anic Jesus) is still the greater.

For instance, Surah 19:20 says that Issa was born of a virgin, yet Muhammad was born naturally, like everyone else. But Muslims don't know why a virgin birth is so significant, and important. To understand that, they need to go to the Bible, to Isaiah 7:14 where the prophet Isaiah mentions that this virgin birth will be a significant sign, because when he is born, he will be 'Immanuel', which means 'God with us'. 

So, when the only virgin in the history of mankind conceives and bears a son, that son will be 'God with us'!

In Surah 3:46, Issa spoke from the cradle, yet Muhammad never did, proving that even in his infancy Issa was greater.

In Surah 3:49, Issa (with Allah's help), made birds out of clay, gave sight to the blind, healed the leper, and made dead men rise, all of which Muhammad could not do (even with Allah's help).

So, here are 6 areas already where Issa is superior to Muhammad, and could do things Muhammad could not dream of doing.

Jay then ends with the most important comparison, in Surah 19:19, where the angel Gabriel comes to Mary and announces that she would have a 'righteous son', which means a sinless son. Only Issa is the sinless one, something Muhammad could never hope to be, because numerous times in the Qur'an he is shown to be sinful; especially in Surah 48:1-2, where he is forced to ask forgiveness, not only for the sins he used to do, but for the sins he will continue to do, even as a prophet.

Only Issa is the sinless one, which proves yet again, that even according to the Qur'an Issa (the Qur'anic Jesus) is superior to Muhammad in every major category...and Jay didn't even begin to show us just how great the Biblical Jesus is...much greater than either Muhammad, or Issa.
