Not as Christians do though. To truly be a Christian, you have to believe that Christ was the son of God and died as a penance for the sins of the world. Muslims believe that Jesus was a highly revered prophet (maybe even the highest depending on who you ask), however he wasn't divine and he didn't really die on the cross.

NOI definitely believes in Jesus. They believe that Moses, Jesus and Muhammad are the holiest profits of Islam. They also believe in the TRUTHS of the bible. They acknowledge that some of the bible is true but the majority of it has been tampered with, polluted and corrupted. The NOI believes that you can't be a Muslim if you don't believe in Jesus. orthodox Islam believes the same. They just don't believe that Jesus was fathered by a ghost or any of that hocus pocus born of a virgin stuff.
They do believe in the resurrection of Christ though.
Not exactly. An actual Muslim can correct me if I'm wrong, but Muslims don't believe Jesus died on the cross. They believe that God replaced him with another person and took him to heaven. There he is still alive and waiting for the day that God will send him back to rule over his people.
Also, from an athiest standpoint, it's fine to call Jesus divine birth hocus pocus. However, it's silly to say that when coming from the standpoint of a religion that has more than enough of its own supernatural stuff.
