Qur'an 5:17 "Verily they are disbelievers and infidels who say, ‘The Messiah, son of Mary, is God.'"
Qur'an 5:51 "Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends. They are but friends and protectors to each other."
Qur'an 5:72 "They are surely infidels who blaspheme and say: ‘God is Christ, the Messiah, the son of Mary.' But the Messiah only said: ‘O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.'"
Qur'an 74:31 "We have appointed nineteen angels to be the wardens of the Hell Fire. We made a stumbling-block for those who disbelieve and We have fixed their number as a trial for unbelievers in order that the People of the Book may arrive with certainty, and that no doubts may be left for the People of the Book, those in whose hearts is a disease."

There are 2 achievable motives so a strategies as i understand. a million- the 1st of his supporters have been from a small city called Nassera, in Arabic the language of Quran it is common to call human beings from a definite city like that with the call of the city (like Texecan from Texas in usa) 2- They supported Eisa (PBUH) and that they believed in God and supported his messenger. The call of the religion replaced into no longer concerning to the call of the messengers or prophets. i'm no longer an expert interior the subject count, I basically wrote what i understand and continually God knows of extra useful.

Because Muslims doesnt accept Christ Jesus as son of God or the messiah although they loved him and adored his mother Mary, they consider him as one of God's beloved prophets.

Probably because he never spoke English? I know Injeel is the word for the Gospels, he refers to us in that way. A Christian is just a follower of the Injeel.

in terms of literal translation, likely because Muhammed was not too fond of people worshipping whom he considered a prophet, and so, it does well for Islam, thinking we support Allah rather than Elohim.
"Christians" literally means "little Christs", "the Christ ones" or "Christ's followers". Muhammed didn't wan't early muslims thinking Christ was more special than he perceived
