They consider Jesus as much as a prophet as Muhammad.
What you've said is only true from a particular standpoint. Muslims believe that Jesus was equally as divine as Muhammed, because they don't believe that Muhammed was inherently divine. As revered as he is, Muhammed to Muslims is a prophet, not the incarnation of Allah. On the other hand, Christians believe that Jesus Christ is the physical incarnation of god, or god's only begotten son, to quote the book of John. Muslims believe that it is impossible for god (Allah) to be incarnated in human form.
