Islam views early Christianity and the persecution faced by the early Christian church with great respect and admiration. 🏵️🏵️
Muslims believe that Jesus (peace be upon him) was a prophet of God, sent to guide humanity to the path of righteousness and submission to God.
In the Islamic tradition, Jesus is referred to as Isa (peace be upon him).

Muslims recognize the sacrifices made by the early Christian martyrs who were persecuted and killed for their beliefs.
These martyrs are revered for their steadfastness and unwavering commitment to their faith, and their struggles are seen as a testament to the power of faith in the face of adversity.

In the Quran, Allah says, "Certainly, We sent messengers before you (O Muhammad), of them some We have related to you their story, and some We have not related to you their story…” (Qur’an, 40:78).
This verse indicates that there were many prophets sent before the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and that the stories of these prophets are important to learn from and reflect upon.

Islam encourages its followers to be empathetic towards all believers, including the Christians who faced persecution.
In fact, Islam teaches that it is a sin to harm any human being, regardless of their religious beliefs or practices.
