“I was a Muslim for 26 years, then I saw jesus differently” – Ex-Muslim lady explains why she left Islam
An ex-Muslim lady has sparked discussion online after sharing her reflections on how Jesus is described in the Quran, contrasting these descriptions with the Bible.
The video, shared on X (formerly Twitter) by AsakyGRN, has drawn attention for its personal perspective and theological observations.
Jesus in the Quran
The lady, who reportedly was a Muslim for 26 years, highlighted that the Quran refers to Jesus as the “Word of God,” the “Spirit of God,” and the “Messiah,” while no similar titles are attributed to Prophet Muhammad or other figures.
“So, in the Quran… Jesus is called a word from God. A word from God. Please just think about it for a second. Your word as a person is not even separate from you. When you speak, that is you expressing yourself.”
She pointed out verses from Suratul Iman (verse 45) and Suratul Nisa (verse 171) as examples, noting that “only Jesus gets this description in the whole Quran.”
“Only Jesus gets this description in the whole Quran… even Muhammad did not get that.”
She also noted that Jesus is referred to as al-Masih, the Messiah, 11 times, a title not given to any other prophet.
The Quran calls Jesus al-Masih, the Messiah, 11 times… not once does the Quran give this title to Muhammad, to Abraham, to Moses, to Adam. Only Jesus.”
Regarding his birth, she emphasized that the Quran describes Jesus as a “pure child,” signifying his sinless nature.
“Throughout the Quran, all the prophets asked God for forgiveness… but Jesus has been presented as a pure child.”
Personal Reflections
The young lady explained that her perspective comes from personal exploration and study rather than an attempt to criticise Islam.
“I want to be clear… I am not trying to attack Islam. I’m not even here to make Muslims feel bad. I was a Muslim. I understand the faith from the inside,” she said
Comparing with the Bible
Turning to the Bible, she explained that Jesus’ self-identification stood out to her during her reading.
“Jesus said, ‘I am the way, I am the truth, and I am life.’ He did not say, ‘I will show you the way.’ He said, ‘I am it.’ I was like, that’s a bold statement.”
According to her, this difference encouraged her to explore Jesus further.
Call to Reflection
The ex-Muslim lady encouraged viewers to examine both scriptures personally and sincerely.
“You don’t need a special prayer or church or ceremony. Just be honest with God the way I was. See, honesty really matters. Just say, ‘Lord, I want to know you. Show me who Jesus really is.
She added: “I took my chances with Jesus and I have never been the same. Ever.”
