Dear American Beauty,
Not only was your reply completely useless, it was remarkably annoying. Why is everything a "statement?" I was writing a paper and needed to make a quick parallel. It wasn't so I could go around preaching about all the religious leaders other than your Jesus. Damn, chill out.

I don't think they have an absolute parallel, as an Imam is still considered a layman, I believe. He would be more like a deacon.

It really makes no difference, since neither of these titles are scriptural. Jesus is our high priest, and no religious man should therefore be called "priest," other than Christ.
