Quoted from the "ISLAM REVEALED"
JESUS HAD SUPERNATURAL KNOWLEDGE
First, we look at Surat al-Imran (The Family of 'Imran) 3:49:
And I announce unto you what ye eat and what ye store up in your houses. Lo! herein verily is a portent for you, if ye are to be believers.
Muslim scholars take
two positions on this passage. Some believe that from the beginning
'Isa (Jesus) learned hidden matters. Saddi relates that while 'Isa
(Jesus) was playing with the children, He told them what their mothers
and fathers did. he told one boy, "Your mother has hidden something
for you," and the boy went home and cried until he received it.
Another scholarly opinion
holds "discernment of hidden matters to be miraculous."
Astrologers who tell the future and reveal hidden matters can only do so
by questioning. They also confess that they often make mistakes.
But knowledge of the unknown, without recourse to aids or previous knowledge,
cannot be without inspiration.
A second reference to
Jesus' knowledge is in Surat Zukhruf (Ornaments of Gold) 43:57, 61:
And when the son
of Mary is quoted as an example, behold! the folk laugh out.. . .
And lo! verily
there is knowledge of the Hour. so doubt ye not concerning it, but
follow Me. This is the right path.
Al Jalalan explained the phrase "a knowledge of the Hour" as meaning that Jesus knew when the Day of Judgment would come. If you recognize Allah as separate from his creation, in that he alone knows the times to come, you can comprehend the measure of distinction to which the Quran assigns Christ.
