No Jew believes Jesus was a prophet or that he ever performed miracles. There is nothing in Jewish writings about him. If he ever actually lived, he might have spent time in Egypt and learned magic tricks there.

Muslims believe that Jesus (pbuh) did miracles becuase God gave him the power to do so.
Jews believe that Jesus was a very good magician and trickster. Some think he was helped by the Devil, others think that he was a very good illusionist, and others think that nothing ever happened and that people made all those things up.

Yes, muslims do believe that Jesus did miracles. I can't speak for Jews though.

While some Jewish writers find ways to explain how Jesus could have done miracles, and argue that even within the context of those miracles, he was not of value to Judaism, many writers simply dismiss him and the stories about him as post-lifetime fairy tales -- he was a man who was a man and that's it.
Islam views him as a prophet so I don't know if their prophets performed miracles.

Many people can do miracles. I'm not necessarily pro or con Jesus Christ but if I had to say what most impresses me about the Jesus concept it would be the beautiful things he said and lived for. The myth and mystical stories don't empress me nor the size of the organization that has sprung up around them. What would empress me would be if that organization started doing the things Jesus Christ said do.

deuteronomy 13 warns us that a false prophet will come who will give us signs and wonders and try to lead us away from the commandments to follow a god we "have not known" by adding to the torah. we believe this is a clear prophecy of jesus. and what does G-d say about the matter?
"You shall not heed the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of a dream; for the Lord, your God, is testing you, to know whether you really love the Lord, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul. You shall follow the Lord, your God, fear Him, keep His commandments, heed His voice, worship Him, and cleave to Him." - Deut 4-5
any miracle jesus did is a part of the prophecy. G-d told us false prophets would do miracles, and lo and behold, one came along and did them. and most important of all, we listened to G-d when he told us not to betray him for that false prophet. so many other people abandoned G-d the minute jesus came along and they never even looked back.

That is the whole problem with the way Judaism and Islam work. They both say that Jesus was a great man and a prophet, but they don't believe He was God. It seems to me that if He was not God...He was a raving lunatic and was not a good man at all. You can't say Jesus was a good man or a prophet of God without accepting that He was God too. He was either crazy..or God. You have to make up your mind.

- Jews are finding forward to the arrival of the Messiah who they have self assurance isn't God, yet is the anointed one in all God. they do no longer know Christ Jesus as being God or the Messiah. - Muslims have self assurance that Jesus is a prophet no longer God. in reality they venerate their prophet Muhammad over their prophet Jesus. - classic/Semi classic Christians (Catholics, Orthodox, Trinitarian Protestants) have self assurance that Christ Jesus is God the Son in the Holy Trinity. - modern Christians (Non-Trinitarian Protestants) have self assurance that Christ Jesus is the Messiah yet he's no longer God or is a god made flesh. for this reason Christ Jesus is the Son of God.
