http://www.mekkaoui.net/MaktabaIslamya/Quraneg/menueg.htm
and if u want know what we thinking about him as muslims ..
We Muslims believe the following things about Jesus:
1. We love Jesus & respect him as a major prophet of Islam.
2. We also love the mother of Jesus, the Virgin Mary. We believe she was a pious and noble woman chosen over all of the women of the world.
3. Muslims believe that Jesus was born miraculously of a virgin mother and no father. His birth is miraculous like the birth of Adam, the first human being, who was created with neither mother nor father.
4. Muslims do not believe that Jesus was the son of God. God is so powerful and self-sufficient that He does not need a son or any kind of partner.
5. In Arabic Bible the name for God is Allah. Therefore all Arab Christian call God Allah as Muslim do as well.
6. Jesus did not die on the cross. Rather, God saved him as his enemies were confused about him. Jesus was taken up by God to Heaven.
7. Jesus is called Isa (pronounced Eesa) in Arabic.
8. Jesus performed miracles by the Will of God, like healing the blind and those with leprosy.
9. Jesus prayed to the same God as all Prophets and we Muslims pray to.
10. Jesus will return before the end of the world.
If Jesus is a son of God, then the following things come up:
1. Why Adam & Eve are not sons & daughters of God when God created them without parents?
2. What about all living beings which God created without both father & mother for the first time?
3. If Jesus was son of God, then why only 120 people accepted his prophethood at that time, rest of all spit on him, insulted him, terrorized him and eventually killed him (Christian belief) but God didn't save him?
4. If we take Jesus born without 'father' then how come God is his father?
5. As God is all powerful & compared to no one then how come he beget a son like humans?
6. God doesn't need any food nor any shelter. But why Jesus felt hungry and sought rest & comfort?
7. No one can do any harm to God, but how come people murdered Jesus?
8. God has no beginning & no end, how come Jesus was born & eventually died?
You do not have to answer these. There is no direct statement by Jesus himself that he came to fulfill this mission. He was very clear to tell people that God is my God and yours. He used to pray to God and ask Him for support and comfort. He never said, “I am God” or “I am the Son of God.” Rather, he was called several times in the Gospels “a prophet” and “a mighty prophet”. He was also called “the servant of God” like Prophet Muhammad after him. People used to shout, “Here a prophet has risen among us” and repeated this phrase whenever Jesus performed a miracle in front of people.
God/Allah bless you

He is called Isa Al-Mashih(Jesus Christ).
Isa/Eesa is another name for Jesus like Iesus(greek) and Yehosua(hebrew).
Al-Mashih means Messiah(english), Masiach(hebrew) and Christ(greek).
His 'worshippers' are called christians. However muslims MUST respect and tolerate christians coz they also recieved a divine message from God/Allah/YHWH, the Gospel or Injeel(arabic).
Also Isa/Jesus is a respected prophet in Islam but muslims don't believe he is God or God's paternal son. Also muslims believe that God heard Isa/Jesus' prayer and saved him from the crucifiction. Islam do not believe in Original Sin coz then that would destroy the purpose of free will and it goes against the Torah/Tawrat(another revelation from God).
