In Islam, it is believed that Jesus (known as Isa in Arabic) was not crucified. According to Islamic teachings, particularly in the Quran, Jesus was not killed or crucified but was instead raised up to heaven by God.
The relevant verse from the Quran is:
"And [for] their saying, 'Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.' And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain. Rather, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise." (Quran 4:157-158)
This passage suggests that someone else was made to appear like Jesus and was crucified in his place, while Jesus himself was taken up to heaven alive. Therefore, Islam rejects the crucifixion narrative found in Christian teachings.
