No one in the Quran died and was resurrected by God, only verses saying that God will raise the dead. Other religions too say something to that effect through reincarnation.
In the Quran, Jesus is a prophet but is known as 'the word of God'. Jesus did not die or was kill or was crucified. But God raised him without him having to die. Which means that God loved Jesus very much that he didn't allow him to die. So God has a very high regard for Jesus.
In the second coming, it is Jesus who comes down and defeats the Evil one. So God places a deep trust in Jesus for doing such a task and Jesus has Gods power.
To get into Heaven the Quran teaches that u must have faith and do good deeds. It doesn't tell u how much good deeds that you must do nor does it guarantee that u get into Heaven. So the path to Heaven is not clear.
God has a high regard of Jesus but Islam places a higher regard on Muhammed? There is a chptr dedicated to Mary mother of Jesus but no book about Muhammed's mother.

If the Quran does place more importance on Isa (Jesus) than Muhammed then if Quran is directly from God then surely the teachings of Jesus has a higher importance than those of Muhammed? If this is true then which has the more creditable account of Jesus's teaching, the Quran or the Bible, since both is from God?

Yes those are the teachings of the Quran if only people really read the book
Creation itself tells us there is a creator and from the beginning of time – Allah, (the One God in Arabic) alone is to be worshiped. This is clear teaching throughout the Old testament (Torah), the scriptures that Jesus himself read and taught from. God is one not one of three; for example: ‘He is God; there is no other besides Him’. (Deuteronomy 4:35). The same is mentioned in the book of Mark in the New Testament, chapter 12, verse 29, when Jesus, peace be upon him, had been asked about the Greatest Commandment he replied, "To know, O Israel, the Lord your God is One Lord; and you have to love Him with all your heart and all your mind and all your strength."
According to the oldest and most authentic copies of manuscipts and scrolls available throughout the centuries, Jesus, peace be upon him, never claimed to be God, or the creator, or the One to pray to, nor did he tell his followers to revere him as God. These notions appear on the lips of others who came along decades and even centuries later.
While Jesus was on earth he did not claim to be the creator or ask us to revere him as God. His miraculous birth is a sign of his prophethood: “Verily, the likeness of Jesus before Allah, is the likeness of Adam. He (Allah) created him from dust and said “Be!” and he was” (Quran 3:59). Like all the great and noble prophets of Allah such as Adam, Abraham, Moses, Isaac and David, Jesus came with one message: Worship, love, obey and submit to the one true God, Allah, the creator of everything and do not worship anything besides Allah.

The Qou'ran is as much Judeo-Christian text as the Torah or Bible. Muhammed was a conquerer, and believed his people to be the rightful owner of Palestine. This probably alot to do with why muslims identify so strongly with Muhamed.
Edit:
Neither are from God, both are from governments, and both are a crock of mindless pigshit that serve only to indoctrinate. That should clear things up a bit.

yea u r right that Isa is given more importance. its because of Christians who started believing that Isa is God's son. who is actually not. to clear their conception Allah Subhan related all the facts about Isa in HIS last book that is revealed on HIS last messenger Mohammad PBUH.
about Mohammad PBUH, he is the greatest of all prophets because Allah has sent His final book Quran thru him. Allah has chosen the religion of Islam as best for man kind and the religion was taught, spread and COMPLETED by HIS beloved messenger Mohammed PBUH. thats why we are ordered to follow Mohammad PBUH teachings. they exactly portray what Allah said in Quran. the other prophets did their job but their teachings are now corrupted by we human beings. they do not exist in their original shape.
about Isa's raise, i will say that all of the Prophets who came on earth, did have some miracle from Allah. that miracle would differentiate them from other normal human beings. say for instance Sulaiman has the miracle of speaking to animals and Jinn. all of animals n jinn were under his command. Moses has the miracle of talking to Allah directly. i mean he would converse with HIM, could listen HIS voice. same Isa had the miracle of giving life to the deads. therefore chirstians got him wrong n thought he is God's son. Mohammad was a very humble prophet of Allah. he never knew that he was selected for prophacy till he was 40. when Gibrael came to him with revelation, he got scared. he came to his wife Khadija and kept his head under her shawl. he was shivering with fear. he told everything to Khadija. Khadija asked him if still he can see that angel? He said yes he can. then Khadija removed her shawl from her head(uncovered her head), and asked if still he can see the angel? Prophet Mohammad PBUH said no, he can not see him now. Khadija got it that it was really angel came with revelation from Allah. coz if that was satan, he would have never disappeared when she uncovered her head. she took Mohammad to her cousin who was christian and related all the story to him. her cousin was shocked/surprised and then he said By God he is the same whose prophecy is mentioned in Bible. he is the last messenger from Allah.
one of the Miracle of Mohammad is Miraaj. Miraaj is the visit of Mohammad to the 7 skies in one night. there he met all of the past prophets including Isa. No prophet has ever been raised to skies and sent back to earth. but Mohammad was the only one who was given this chance. our five times prayers, that we do daily, that is the gift from Allah to HIS beloved prophet on his visit. therefore we give special respect to this night, that comes around one n half months before Ramzan.
Marry is discussed because she gave birth to a kid without being married. she is the only woman in history of earth. so she deserves that importance. Mohammad was born with normal birth procedure and unfortunately his mother could not live with him more then few years.
