How Does Islam View Jesus?

As one of its own, of course, as this New Yorker item explains:
Jesus didn’t die on the cross. He was born of a virgin, but he isn’t the son of God. He did not redeem the sins of humankind. He healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, and raised the dead. He spoke complete sentences even as an infant in the cradle, announcing to his mother, Mary, that God had granted him the scripture and made him a prophet. Jesus is neither almighty nor eternal. Jesus is the Messiah. Jesus is a Muslim.
This is the Jesus of the Koran...
Update: How Muslims view Easter--in Nigeria. Guess they didn't get the memo about Jesus being a Muslim.
