The Concept of Divine Sonship in Islam
In Islamic Theology, similar to Judaism, not only is the concept of "Divine Sonship" blasphemous, it is seen as one of the most vile & monstrous insults one can attribute to God."No heathen tribe has conceived so grotesque an idea, involving as it does the assumption, that man was born with a hereditary stain upon him; and that this stain (for which he is not personably responsible) was to be atoned for; and that the Creator of all things had to sacrifice his only begotten son to neutralize this mysterious curse."
-Major Yeats Brown Life of a Bengal Lancer
The common Christian cliche is derived from the heart of the Nicene Creed:
The idea here is, Jesus was not "Made" (Like Adam), but rather "begotten" by God himself. The word 'Begotten' is related to the biological sex-practices of animals (begetting), so what is exactly implied when it is said: "Jesus is begotten NOT MADE"?“And [we believe] in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of His Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, BEGOTTEN, NOT MADE, being of one substance with the Father … .�
Did God have sex with Mary the mother of Christ? (God Forbid)
How did God(The Father) "Beget" Jesus?
Can Jesus also "Beget" a Son & increase the family lineage of the Trinity?
For example:
If an old man greeted you with "Hello John my Son", you would think the old man loves you like a son he never had & you would be extremely happy to hear this.
BUT, how would you react if he said "Hello John my ONLY BEGOTTEN SON"? You would most likely punch him in the face, as he is allusively giving you the most horrendous & vile swearing. Not only is he calling you a bastard child, meaning he is your "real dad", he is simultanously claiming to having sex with your mother thus making your mother an adulteress & you a child of adultry.
In Christendom:
The most ancient Greek Manuscripts do not have the word "Begotten", thus the RSV Bible (Revised Standard Version) that is written under the authority of 32 scholars of the highest eminence, backed by 50 different Christian co-operating denominations, they have completely thrown out this word 'Begotten' as a fabrication, an interpolation & a concoction.
The Glorious Quran, regarding this matter:
Metaphorically speaking, if the heavens had emotions, if the earth had emotions & if the mountains had emotions; they would all explode asunder with absolute disgust & anger upon hearing this horrendous insult attributed to God.And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken [for Himself] a son."
You have done an atrocious thing.
The heavens almost rupture therefrom and the earth splits open and the mountains collapse in devastation
That they attribute to the Most Merciful a son.
And it is not appropriate for the Most Merciful that He should take a son.
There is no one in the heavens and earth but that he comes to the Most Merciful as a servant.
He has enumerated them and counted them a [full] counting.
And all of them are coming to Him on the Day of Resurrection alone.
[Quran 19:88-95]
We are all sons of God, in the metaphorical sense.
