==Denial== | |||
The denial of crucifixion of Jesus is heretical in Christianity and contradicts established history, as even non-Christian historians recognize that he was crucified. | |||
===Islam=== | |||
Most Muslims deny Jesus died on the cross, following Quran 4:157–158: | |||
"and for boasting, “We killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.” But they neither killed nor crucified him—it was only made to appear so.1 Even those who argue for this ˹crucifixion˺ are in doubt. They have no knowledge whatsoever—only making assumptions. They certainly did not kill him. | |||
Rather, Allah raised him up to Himself. And Allah is Almighty, All-Wise." <ref>https://quran.com/an-nisa/157-158</ref> | |||
