Was Jesus a Muslim?
The video companion to the essay 'The Honorary Member.' Was Jesus a Muslim? We go through it the way the essay does — submission, the shahada, the missing Injīl, the corruption argument, and the historical Jesus the Gospels actually describe.
“Honoured, never enrolled — the Jesus of history can't be folded into Islam.”
In this episode

- Submission, the shahada, and the missing Injīl
- The corruption argument vs the manuscript record
