Belief of Hadhrat Isa (alaihis salaam) being crucified
Question
Does the crucifixion story have any basis in Islam?
Answer
Muslims do not believe that Hadhrat Isa (alaihis salaam) was crucified. Rather the Quraan Shareef says that he was raised to the skies alive. And he will return to earth before Qiyaamat.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
