Hi sister 
I'm not a theologian, far from it. But Jesus is the Son of God, therefore He is related to God and that makes Him God.
I think a good starting point from your explanation could be by using this wonderful list by brother Chad.

That list of prophecy is from the Old Testament, which shows that God told the people of this world thousands of years before that His Son would come.
Let me know if you need more help.
God bless
Much love

Hi Luki,
It is good that you are wanting the salvation of your husband but having said that you are up against a formidable opposition. Any religion that can last for approximately 1400 years is not going to go away easily. Added to that, Islam is a religion of tyranny and any Muslim converting to Christianity faces the real prospect of death with the blessings of the Quran. Their holy book is peppered with references to killing infidels (as defectors are called) and relatives are especially urged to carry out the act themselves.
Having said that, we worship a good God who is able to seek and to save those who are lost. Whilst I don't hold out much hope of intellectual persuasion, much prayer and a good example in lifestyle can move mountains.
God bless

Psalm 23
A Psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD
Forever.

Psalm 23 has almost always been a favourite of mine. I did not attend a ‘Church’ school but our teacher in year four taught us this psalm and also introduced us to ‘The Pilgrim's Progress‘ by John Bunyan. It is odd how things that seemed so insignificant at the time become major players in later life and I shall always be grateful to that teacher for enriching my life.
God bless
