DOES GOD HAVE A SON?<br />

In <strong>Islam</strong> God is one, alone, <strong>in</strong>dependent. He begetteth not nor is<br />

begotten. There is no like unto him.<br />

In <strong>Islam</strong> Jesus is a prophet, born to the virg<strong>in</strong> Marry without any male<br />

<strong>in</strong>tervention.<br />

Paul<strong>in</strong>e law directly <strong>in</strong>dicates that God has a son.<br />

If one takes the dogma that God has a son, it will result that the son is<br />

the direct <strong>of</strong>fspr<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> God, or is God or apart <strong>of</strong> him hav<strong>in</strong>g his<br />

qualities ect.<br />

Now if the Son <strong>of</strong> God were to also have a son it would result to the<br />

conclusion that God has a grandson who shares his nature, and if this<br />

semi-god has a son it will result that God has a great grandson and this<br />

process will cont<strong>in</strong>ue. The conclusion <strong>of</strong> this theory will result to<br />

various denom<strong>in</strong>ations claim<strong>in</strong>g that the only way to reach God is<br />

through the great grandson then the grandson then the son then God.<br />

The Quraan says: “Say if God/The Merciful had a son, I would be the<br />

first to worship.”<br />

“It is not appropriate for God to take a son; All <strong>in</strong> heaven and earth<br />

come to God as slaves” (quraan)<br />

God is free from faults and every creation <strong>of</strong> his enjoys the freedom to<br />

approach him directly without any mediator.<br />
