Editing Jesus in Islam (section)

==== Food in children's homes ====
Another story from al-Tabari tells of a young Jesus playing with the youths of his village and telling them what food their parents were preparing for them at home.<ref name="Leirvik 2010, p. 59-60"/>

According to the details of the narrative, some parents became annoyed and forbade their children to play with Jesus, suspecting he was a magician. As a result, the parents kept their children away from Jesus and gathered their children into a single house. One day, feeling lonely, Jesus went out looking for his friends, and coming upon this house he asked the parents where their children were. The parents lied, responding that the children were not there. After Jesus asks who, then, is in the house, the parents replied that there were [[Pig|swine]] inside. Jesus then says "Let them be swine!", with the parents then discovering that all the children had turned into swine.{{sfn|Ayoub|1992|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=XCZaP4JLeKkC&pg=PA145 145]}}

Over the centuries, Muslim writers have also referenced other miracles like casting out demons, having borrowed from some [[Heresy|heretical]] pre-Islamic sources, and from [[gospel canon|canonical]] sources as legends about Jesus were expanded.<ref name="Leirvik 2010, p. 59-60" />
