Who is Jesus? An Interfaith Discussion

    Share

What you are about to see is a discussion about the nature of Jesus (alayhi assalaam) from representatives of 6 different religions and denominations.  The format of the discussion was that each representative would speak for about 5 minutes.  Then, there was about 20 minutes of Q&A between the audience and the speakers.  The setting was in a church that sponsored this event, and which it called a hexalogue (a dialogue between 6, and yes it’s not in the dictionary!!!).  In total, there was 4 sessions on 4 different days, but I only participated in 2.  The following session about Jesus was one of them!

  1. It was interesting to note that the Jewish Scholar say that monotheism started with Abraham “Officially”, as if God never spoke to Prophets before that and instructed them in monotheism.

  2. I liked the Muslim’s response. However, I thought there would be more questions from the audience concerning the role of Jesus in Islam.

  3. Great work brother Anas. Ma Sha Allah

  4. Ahsaant ya akhi

  5. I wish that they was more of an Audience, it looked like a great opportunity for everyone. The audience were mostly elderly and not that much youth.

  6. Mumtaaz! Excellent answers, mashaAllah!

  7. That’s interesting…i thought everyone would say Adam (except the buddhist belief system). I still don’t understand how monotheism started in judaism. What do u think the rabbi meant when he said “the concept of religion didn’t exist before Abraham”?

    Jazak Allah Khair brother Anas, awesome job!

  8. mashaAllah. wonderful job brother. may Allah reward you for ur dawah.

  9. Assalaam Alaikum everyone,

    May Allah reward you for all the nice encouraging words. May Allah put us all at His service … Ameen!
