Short description: The Arabic translation of the Hebrew title messiah
Masih is the Arabic translation of the Hebrew title messiah, meaning "the anointed one".[1] It is used as a title for Jesus by both Muslims and Arabic speaking Christians, because they believe him to be the prophesied Jewish messiah of the Hebrew Bible. He is also commonly known as the Christ, which is the Greek translation of messiah.[2] Similarly, Masih is used by Arabic speaking Jews to refer to the concept of the messiah in Judaism.
