Cited as a parallel Qur'anic text where Allah says to Jesus 'when you formed from clay the shape of a bird by My permission,' again used to argue Jesus performs divine-like creative acts in Islam's own scripture.

Quran 5:110
quran
110 When God said, 'Jesus Son of Mary, remember My blessing upon thee and upon thy mother, when I confirmed thee with the Holy Spirit, to speak to men in the cradle, and of age; and when I taught thee the Book, the Wisdom, the Torah, the Gospel; and when thou createst out of clay, by My leave, as the likeness of a bird, and thou breathest into it, and it is a bird, by My leave; and thou healest the blind and the leper by My leave, and thou bringest the dead forth by My leave; and when restrained from thee the Children of Israel when thou camest unto them with the clear signs, and the unbelievers among them said, "This is nothing but sorcery manifest."
Raised as a parallel passage to Qur'an 3:49, again describing Jesus forming a bird from clay and it becoming alive by Allah's permission; used to defend or dispute whether Jesus is truly a creator in Islam.
This verse was read aloud to show that Jesus formed a bird from clay and it became a living bird 'by My permission'; the debate centered on whether this still makes Jesus a true creator of life in the Quran.
