Since Christianity has been distorted, is it not possible for Hz Isa’s (Christ’s) being born without a father and his miracles to be fake?

The Answer

Dear Brother / Sister,

It is possible to determine what information has been distorted and what has not been distorted by comparing them with the Quran and hadiths.

Thus, Hz Isa’s (Christ’s) being born without a father and his miracles are not fake information that emerged after distortion. We learn from Islamic resources that they are true.

The issue is narrated as follows in the Quran: 

"She (Maryam) 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: "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, ´that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us´: It is a matter (so) decreed." So she conceived him, and she retired with him to a remote place. And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm-tree: She cried (in her anguish): "Ah! would that I had died before this! would that I had been a thing forgotten and out of sight!'" (Maryam, 19/18-23).

"...They said: "How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?" He said: "I am indeed a servant of Allah: He hath given me revelation 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).'" (Maryam, 19/29-33).

" The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was." (Aal-i Imran, 3/59).

The miracles of Hz. Isa mentioned in the Quran are as follows:

Hz. Isa made a figure of a bird out of clay; when he breathed into it, it became a bird and flew; he brought forth the dead, healed those born blind and the lepers; he had a table  sent down from heaven (al-Maida, 5/110-115); he declared to his disciples and other friends what they ate and what they stored in their houses; he gave them information about what is ghayb (unkbown). (Aal-i Imran, 3/49)
