►Do Muslims believe in original sin?

Muslims don't believe in original sin.  Muslims believe that everyone is born pure and that no person can carry the burden of another's sin.  The Old Testament also corroborates this:

In Islam, nobody is held accountable until they reach the age of puberty.  If someone does sin, God is the most forgiving, all we have to do is sincerely repent and do what is righteous, and God will be willing to forgive us.  This Hadith best explains it:

Jesus (pbuh) never once preached this concept of original sin, it was in fact Paul that introduced this.  Killing an innocent man for the sins of others would be viewed as immoral in any other society, in Christianity, this is viewed as a gift.  We never ate the apple, we were never asked by Adam (pbuh) if he should eat the apple, so how can we be blamed?  How is this just?  A just God wouldn't have such an unjust doctrine.

►What do Muslims believe about Jesus (pbuh)?

•Muslims believe that Jesus (pbuh) was a prophet of God, sent before Muhammad (pbuh).  Muslims believe that he was born miraculously of a virgin, and produced many miracles, including raising the dead and curing the blind and the leper. 

Qur'an 3:45 "Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah."

•Muslims believe that Jesus (pbuh) was sent to the Jews with the same message God sent with every prophet, to worship the Almighty God alone and to follow his commands.

Matthew 10: ⁵These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not

Matthew 15:²⁴But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

John 4:²²Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.

Matthew 7:⁶Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

•Muslims do not believe that Jesus (pbuh) is the Begotten son of God.

Qur'an 12:1 "Say: He is Allah, the One and Only; 2. Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; 3. He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;  4. And there is none like unto Him."

•Muslims do not believe that Jesus (pbuh) is God incarnate or part of a trinity.

Qur'an 4:171 "People of the Book, do not go to excess in your religion, and do not say anything about God except the truth: the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was nothing more than a messenger of God, His word, directed to Mary, a spirit from Him.  So believe in God and His messengers and do not speak of a 'Trinity' -- stop [this], that is better for you -- God is only one God, He is far above having a son, everything in the heavens and earth belongs to Him and He is the best one to trust."

Deut 4: ³⁹Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.

Mark 12:²⁹And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord

Mark 10:¹⁸And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.

•Muslims do not believe that Jesus (pbuh) died on the cross, but that God raised him up to heaven and made it appear as if Jesus (pbuh) was crucified. 

Qur'an 4:157 "and said, 'We have killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the Messenger of God.' (They did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, though it was made to appear like that to them; those that disagreed about him are full of doubt, with no knowledge to follow, only supposition: they certainly did not kill him--158. God raised him up to Himself.  God is almighty and wise. 159.There is not one of the People of the Book who will not believe in [Jesus] before his death, and on the Day of Resurrection he will be a witness against him.)"

►What do Muslims believe about Muhammad (pbuh)?

•Muslims believe that Muhammad (pbuh) is the seal of the prophets.  They believe he came with Gods final revelation, the Qur'an, which confirms the previous revelations (Torah, Psalms, Gospels). 

Qur'an 33:40 "Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Messenger of Allah, and the Seal of the Prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things. "

•Muslims do not worship Muhammad (pbuh)

•Muslims do not believe that Muhammad (pbuh) is the son of God, or God incarnate.

•Muslims do not believe that Muhammad (pbuh) died for their sins.

►What Do Muslims believe about the Bible?

First, it is important to note that the Bible we have today wasn't revealed as one book.  The revelations, from Genesis to Revelations spanned thousands of years.  The New Testaments earliest books date back to the first century A.D. and are composed of witness accounts to the life and ministry of Jesus (pbuh) and the letters and apistles of Paul.  Today's bible contains only four gospels.  Before the Bible was created, there were well over thirty gospels considered as authentic by early Christians.   It is widely accepted by Christian Scholars that the Gospel of Mark was the first written (~70 A.D.) and that Matthew and Luke borrowed heavily from Mark and a source of sayings of Jesus (pbuh) many scholars believe to have existed known as 'Q'.   Paul never met Jesus (pbuh) and apparently, based on his letters, knew little of him.  He admitted to being an opponent to Jesus (pbuh) and a persecutor of his followers.  He claimed that this changed On his way to Damascus to persecute more Christians.  For more information about Paul, his supposed conversion, and problems with his accounts, please visit the following links:
