JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD

 The Quran testifies very clearly that Jesus is the Word of God.  Surat al-Nisa (Women) 4:171 says,

  The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and His word which He conveyed unto Mary and a spirit from Him.

 Surat al-Imran (The Family of 'Imran) 3:39 says,

 Allah giveth thee glad tidings of (a son whose name is) John, (who cometh) to confirm a word from Allah, lordly, chaste, a Prophet of the righteous.

 The Imam Abu Al Su'ud commented on the phrase "confirm a word from Allah," stating that John the Baptist was the first to believe in Jesus and to support His being the Word of God and a spirit from Him.
 Al Saddi writes that the mother of Yahya (John) inquired of the mother of 'Isa (Jesus), "Mary, have you felt my pregnancy?" Mary answered, "I too am pregnant."  John's mother then replied, "I find that what is in my belly worships what is in your belly."  Surat al-Imran (The Family of 'Imram) 3:45 adds,

 (And remember) when the angels said:  O Mary!  Lo!  Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a word from Him, whose name is the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, illustrious in the world and the Hereafter; and on of those brought near (unto Allah),

 This is clarified in the saying of the Muslim scholar, Al Sheikh Muhyi Al Din Al Arabi, "The word is Allah in theophany. . . and is the one divine person, not any other."  He also said that the word is a divine person on page 13 of his book, Fusus al Hugm, Part 2.  Actually, the Quran agrees completely with John 1:1, 14: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. . . And the Word became flesh."
