    Moslems consider Jesus to have been a prophet and esteem his mother. In what regard do they hold Buddha?

    Question #101110. Asked by star_gazer. (Nov 18 08 7:32 PM)

    		Buddha was definitely considered a "preacher" (as were Muhammad and Jesus), and some Muslims consider him to also be a prophet.

    		Siddhartha Gautama is thought of as a Messenger, according to this source.


    "...elsewhere in the Qur'an, He affirms that, "Every nation has a Messenger" (10: 47) and "every nation [is] summoned to its Book" (45: 28). These verses show us that God could certainly have sent a messenger to the Hindus; and one of them could have been Siddhartha Gautama. Buddhism resembles revealed religion in another one of its tenets: that throughout history, prophets have come to reveal the same truths to humanity, but after them, human followers have debased these religious truths."

    		Yet very strict Moslems have unfortunately destroyed many priceless and ancient statues of Buddha.
