Kalimatullah
Kalimatullah — the Word of Allah — is one of Isa's titles in the Quran and hadith, indicating that he was brought into existence by the divine word 'Kun — Be' without the biological mechanism of a father. Ibn Kathir carefully explains that this title does not make Isa divine or part of the divine essence — just as Allah's attribute of speech (kalam) is His attribute, the 'word' through which Isa was created is the divine command, not a divine person. The title honors the uniqueness of Isa's mode of creation while firmly locating that creation within the same framework as Adam's creation from clay — both came into being by divine command alone, without ordinary biological causality.
As understood in the classical tradition of Ibn Kathir and the scholars of his school.
