In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

At this time of year we hear this quote often: John 3:16--"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life."

What a blasphemy it is to reduce God to a human level of needing a son.

[Quran 19:90] The heavens are about to shatter, the earth is about to tear asunder, and the mountains are about to crumble. [19:91] Because they claim that the Most Gracious has begotten a son. [19:92] It is not befitting the Most Gracious that He should beget a son. [19:93] Every single one in the heavens and the earth is a servant of the Most Gracious.

Satan encouraged the creation of the myth of Jesus as God's son, part of a trinity, God himself. Jesus would never have claimed such a thing.
(Luke 4:8) Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'"

[Quran 5:116] GOD will say, "O Jesus, son of Mary, did you say to the people, 'Make me and my mother idols beside GOD'?" He will say, "Be You glorified. I could not utter what was not right. Had I said it, You already would have known it. You know my thoughts, and I do not know Your thoughts. You know all the secrets.

We know the true story of Jesus' birth from Quran 19:22-40, and verse 19:35 sums it up. It does not befit GOD that He begets a son, be He glorified. To have anything done, He simply says to it, "Be," and it is.
Jesus, like all messengers, spread the message of worship God alone. May we always follow that guidance.
