This is a placeholder as I collect together the various claims about Jesus and Christianity in the Qur’an:

Surah 4: Jesus wasn’t killed
Surah 5: The Trinity
Surah 5: Mary worshipped
Surah 9: Pay the protection money
Surah 19: Aaron and Mary were siblings and Surah 21: Mary is daughter of Amran, father of Aaaron
Surah 19: Jesus was born under a palm tree and speaks (Gospel of Pseudo Matthew and Gospel of Thomas)
Surah 19: Jesus speaks from the crib (Gospel of Thomas)
Surah 21: Abraham destroys idols and is thrown into a fire (Genesis Rabbah)
Surah 34: Solomon could fly on a carpet (Explained in Tafsir by Ibn Kathir)

This one isn’t quite a claim about Christianity, but the Christian source can be seen:

Surah 18: Retells a variant of the story told by Gregory of Tours
