The opening as it read in 2015
Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit ( , al-Rūḥ al-Quddus ) also known as Jibrayil described in the Islamic faith is mentioned several times in the Qur'an , and is generally interpreted by Muslims as being the same Holy Spirit that is referred to in both the Old and the New Testaments of the Bible . The Arabic phrase " al-Quddus " ( القدس ) translates to English as "the Holy One" or "the Exalted One". Jerusalem , considered a holy site in Islam, is referred to in Arabic as " Bayt al-Muqaddas " ( بيت المقدس ), a term which has the same phonetic root as the Arabic phrases " al-Quddus " and " al-Quds " . " Al-Quddus " is also one of the 99 Names of God in Islam .1

In Islam, the Holy Spirit designation is another way to refer to Gabriel , the high-ranked angel who was assigned by God to deliver his revelation to all apostles and prophets . He is also the angel who delivered the Annunciation to Mary and also delivered the Qur'an to the prophet Muhammad in the cave Hira in Mecca. The Qur'an has referred to Gabriel both by name, and by using the "spirit" designation.
