Which prophet was given the Gospel (Injil) according to the Quran? The answer is Isa, the Islamic name for Jesus.
The Quran describes Isa as a prophet and messenger of God who was sent to the Children of Israel. Muslims believe that God revealed the Injil, or Gospel, to him as guidance and light, confirming the earlier Tawrat, or Torah. In Islamic belief, this revelation was divine rather than a later biography written about Jesus.
Isa is one of Islam’s most honored prophets. The Quran presents him as the Messiah, born miraculously to Maryam, and attributes several miracles to him by God’s permission, including healing and speaking in defense of his mother. Islam rejects the Christian doctrine that Jesus is divine, instead describing him as a human messenger and servant of God.
The Injil should not be confused automatically with the four canonical New Testament Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Mainstream Islamic theology distinguishes the original revelation given to Isa from later Christian writings and holds that the Quran is the final and authoritative revelation.
