Quick fact: The Holy Quran has declared Hazrat Isa (Jesus) علیہ السلام as free from magic.

Explanation

The Holy Quran refutes the allegation of the Jews that Hazrat Isa علیہ السلام was a magician. In Surah As-Saff (verse 6), Hazrat Isa علیہ السلام is declared as a true messenger of Allah, and in Surah Al-Ma'idah (verse 110), his miracles are described as being by Allah's power and permission, not as magic. This is the clear stance of the Quran that the prophets are pure and free from false things like magic.

Good to know

The Jews accused Hazrat Isa علیہ السلام of sorcery, which the Holy Quran strongly rejected. The miracles of Hazrat Isa علیہ السلام in the Quran, such as raising the dead, healing the blind and leper, and breathing life into a bird of clay, were all by Allah's permission. Similarly, regarding Hazrat Sulaiman علیہ السلام, the Quran clarifies that he did not commit disbelief or magic, but rather the devils taught people magic.
