>Ps. What does Islam say about jesus KSM?

this IS the basic difference between Islam and Christianity...well...
Islam says...that well...everything you guys say except for the Son of God part...in fact thats really cursed in Qur'an..here's a translation of part of a chapter called Mariam(Mary) in Qur'an...
it's from that site i provided a link to earlier...

"Relate in the Book (the story of) Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place in the East * And had chosen seclusion from them. Then We sent unto her Our Spirit and it assumed for her the likeness of a perfect man * She said: "I seek refuge from thee to (Allah) Most Gracious: (come not near) if thou dost fear Allah." * He said: "Nay, I am only a messenger from thy Lord, (to announce) to thee the gift of a holy son * She said: "How shall I have a son, seeing that no man has touched me, and I am not unchaste?" * He said: Even so; your Lord says: It is easy to Me: and that We may make him a sign to men and a mercy from Us, and it is a matter which has been decreed * And she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a far place * And the pangs of childbirth drove her unto the trunk of the palm-tree. She said: Oh, would that I had died ere this and had become a thing of naught, forgotten *But (a voice) cried to her from beneath the (palm-tree): "Grieve not! for thy Lord hath provided a rivulet beneath thee; * And shake towards thyself the trunk of the palm-tree: It will let fall fresh ripe dates upon thee * So eat and drink and be consoled. And if thou meetest any mortal, say: Lo! I have vowed a fast unto the Beneficent, and may not speak this day to any mortal. * Then she brought him to her own folk, carrying him. They said: O Mary! Thou hast come with an amazing thing. * "O sister of Aaron! Thy father was not a man of evil, nor thy mother a woman unchaste!" * Then she pointed to him. They said: How can we talk to one who is in the cradle, a young boy? * He said: Surely I am a servant of Allah; He has given me the Book and made me a prophet; * "And He hath made me blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me Prayer and Charity as long as I live; * "(He) hath made me kind to my mother, and not overbearing or miserable * So peace is on me the day I was born, the day that I die, and the day that I shall be raised up to life (again)"! * Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary: (it is) a statement of truth, about which they (vainly) dispute * It befitteth not (the Majesty of) Allah that He should take unto Himself a son. Glory be to Him! When He decreeth a thing, He saith unto it only: Be! and it is. * Verily Allah is my Lord and your Lord: Him therefore serve ye: this is a Way that is straight. * Verily Allah is my Lord and your Lord: Him therefore serve ye: this is a Way that is straight. * See and hear them on the Day they come unto Us! yet the evil-doers are to-day in error manifest * But warn them of the Day of Distress, when the matter will be determined: for (behold,) they are negligent and they do not believe! * It is We Who will inherit the earth, and all beings thereon: to Us will they all be returned.



P.S. Please keep in mind that ANY translation of the Qur'an will most definitely contain errors. In its natural language (Arabic), the Qur'an is the direct Word of Allah (God) to mankind through the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Any translation of the Qur'an no longer retains that 'official' and perfect status.
