It is revealed in the Qur'an that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) did not die and was not killed in any way
 ome people maintain that although the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) was not martyred by the unbelievers of his time, he still died, and that Allah first caused the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) to pass on and then raised him into His Presence. This claim is incompatible with the Qur’an and the belief of ahl al-Sunnah.
They use the term “I will take you back” from verse 55 of Surah Al ‘Imran as evidence, at least in their own eyes, to support this claim. The verse reads:
[Allah said:] "Jesus, I will take you back [mutawaffeeka] and raise you up [wa raafi`uka] to Me and purify you of those who are unbelievers. And I will place the people who follow you above those who are unbelievers until the Day of Resurrection..." (Surah Al 'Imran:55)

Muslims, Christians and Jews believe in the same Allah
 The Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is a holy messenger of Allah.

This is revealed as follows in Surat al-Ma’ida, verse 46:
And We sent Jesus son of Mary following in their footsteps, confirming the Torah that came before him. We gave him the Gospel containing guidance and light, confirming the Torah that came before it, and as guidance and admonition for those who fear [and respect Allah]. CONTINUE... |
