I checked out the Koran concerning these matters. I did not find that it stated Mary was sinless, but that her mother had prayed prior to her birth that she would be "purified".

The Koran indeed states that Jesus formed a bird from clay and caused it to turn into an actual bird and fly away, and also that he gave speeches "from the cradle". Both of these ideas are stated in gnostic writings from the second century. I am guessing that Mohammed had read those writings.

I checked chapter 50:23 of the Koran and found it says nothing of the assumption of Mary. Indeed, it contains no reference to Mary at all. Yet the former Muslim man who speaks in the video states that it affirms that Mary was taken to heaven bodily. Is the man a Catholic?

The words of 50:23 actually state:

and his companions shall say: this is what is ready with me.

Thanks Paidion he could be using a different version of Quran or perhaps he just simply misinterpreted the verses he quoted.

I quoted from the Shakir translation. The Yusufal translation reads:

and his companion will say: "here is his record ready with me!"

Thanks for the info. Paidion, he could be trying to convert Muslims to Christianity by using a form of deception.

According to him, the Koran (or Islam in general) says that Jesus is the Word of God and that God created the universe through His word. I like his question at the end: "[Is] the Word of God Creator or creation?" That's a thoughtful question.
