The word‘ the Maseh’ is mentioned in certain sura. In Arabic this means, ‘The Messiah’ {Al Maseh}. So, Allah is referring to a Messiah. In Hebrew, it is spelt as ‘Mashiah’. It means the ‘Anointed One’ {or Christ} – It is more than just a prophet. None of the prophets were ever given such a high recognition. Descriptions of his importance are many in the Bible. Various prophesies told, over a 1,000 years, of the coming of the Messiah, and has been recorded. The Messiah was also mentioned 39 times in the OT alone, before his coming. This shows the importance of the Messiah, as the world was waiting of a Messiah, for a 1,000 years.
Is there any prophecy of the coming of the Messiah in the Qu'ran?Allah mentioned in a number of sura as Isa the Maseh, confirming this Isa as a Messiah. But, in sura 3:45 Allah says his name is the Maseh {Al Maseh}. If his name is ‘the Maseh’ that would be odd. It cannot be a name, can it?

@Adin Arek Where does the Quran mention about Jesus's life, are there any places, related to Isa, mentioned or any related geography of neighbouring places. Is the place of birth mentioned for instance. What do the sura tell about Isa’s early life? Was any important events of his childhood {after birth given?
Was his age given at any time of his life Except for mentioning his mother what of the other family members? Not to mention his ministry and message followed by eyewitness.
All this information we can read in the Gospel so it must be confirmed in the Qu'ran to be sure Isa is the Messiah the Bible speaks of.
