How can one respond rationally to someone who says that the Prophet Jesus is God or the son of God?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Oct 24, 2026
The belief that Christ is God or His son is a corrupt belief and manifest misguidance, and it contradicts reason and sound human nature. It is illogical for the Creator who manages the affairs of the universe to have been subjected to humiliation, crucifixion, and death at the hands of humans. And to say that He has a son contradicts God's perfection, self-sufficiency, and absolute independence, for God is One, without partner, and has no need for a son to assist Him, and He is self-sufficient beyond all His creation.
