JESUS CHRIST WAS NEVER CRUCIFIED OR DIED, JESUS LOOK LIKE WAS CRUCIFIED; WHILE THE REAL JESUS ASCENDED TO HEAVEN AND WILL RETURN AT THE END OF THE WORLD:
EASTER (EOSTRE): A MODERN PAGAN FESTIVAL CELEBRATED EITHER IN MARCH OR APRIL TO WELCOMED THE SPRING. IN OTHER WORDS, A FESTIVAL HELD IN HONOUR OF THE GODDESS EOSTRE (OSTARA) AND CELEBRATED AT THE SPRING EQUINOX OR WITHIN THE MONTH OF APRIL. (WIKTIONARY / EASTER).
SOME ARGUE THAT JESUS WAS RESCUED BUT WAS GIVEN DEATH BY GOD BEFORE HE WAS ASCENDED BODILY, BUT THEIR REASONS WAS REJECTED, BECAUSE THE VERB “MUTAWAFIKA” (ﻣﺘﻮﻓﻴﻚ) AND “TAWAFFAITANI” (تَوَفَّيۡتَني) IN THESE VERSES MEANS “TO TERMINATE AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME” NOT MEANS “TO DIE OF NATURAL CAUSES”:
Isa Ibn Maryam(as) (ﻋﻴﺴﻰ ﺑﻦ ﻣﺮﻳﻢ) (Jesus, son of Mary) is the prophet and messenger of God. Al-Masih (Messiah) sent to guide the Children of Israel with Al-Injil (the
Gospel).
Jesus is the among most mentioned person in the Qur’an by reference; 25 times by the name Isa, third-person 48 times, first-person 35 times, and the rest as titles and attributes, in 93 verses.
“It is not (befitting) for Allah to take a son; exalted is He! When He decrees an affair, He only says to it, be, and it is”.
(Maryam : 35).
Christ said;
“But in vain they do worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men”.
(Matt. 15 : 9).
قَالَ إِنِّي عَبۡدُ ٱللَّهِ ءَاتَىٰنِيَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَجَعَلَنِي نَبِيّٗا
“(Jesus) said, Indeed, I am the servant of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet”.
(Maryam : 30).
إِنَّ مَثَلَ عِيسَىٰ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ ءَادَمَۖ خَلَقَهُۥ مِن تُرَابٖ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ
“Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allah is like that of Adam. He created Him from dust; then He said to him, Be, and he was”.
(Aal-e-Imran : 59).
Ayatollah Khamenei(qs) said:
ﺃﻫﻤﻴﺔ ﺍﻟﺴﻴﺪ ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻴﺢ (ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﺍﻟﺴﻼﻡ) ﻓﻲ ﻧﻈﺮ ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻠﻤﻴﻦ ﻟﻴﺴﺖ ﺃﻗﻞ ﺑﻼ ﺷﻚ ﻣﻦ ﻗﺪﺭﻩ ﻭ ﺃﻫﻤﻴﺘﻪ ﻓﻲ ﺃﻋﻴﻦ ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻴﺤﻴﻴﻦ ﺍﻟﻤﺆﻣﻨﻴﻦ ﺑﺎﻟﻤﺴﻴﺤﻴﺔ… ﺩﻋﺎ ﺫﻟﻚ ﺍﻟﺮﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﺬﻱ ﺍﺧﺘﺎﺭﻩ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺍﻟﻨﺎﺱ ﺇﻟﻰ ﺳﺒﻴﻞ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻭ ﻫﻮ ﺳﺒﻴﻞ ﺳﻌﺎﺩﺓ ﺍﻹﻧﺴﺎﻥ، ﻭ ﺣﺬﺭﻫﻢ ﻣﻦ ﺍﺗﺒﺎﻉ ﺍﻷﻫﻮﺍﺀ ﻭ ﺍﻟﻨـﺰﻭﺍﺕ ﻭ ﺗﻠﻮﻳﺚ ﺻﻔﺎﺀ ﺍﻟﺮﻭﺡ ﺍﻹﻧﺴﺎﻧﻴﺔ ﺑﺎﻟﻘﺒﺢ ﻭ ﺍﻟﻈﻠﻢ ﻭ ﺍﻹﺳﺎﺀﺍﺕ…
“Jesus has undoubtedly no less value among Muslims than his stature in the eyes of those who are fully devoted to Christianity… Jesus Christ, the Son of Mary, was a herald of God’s grace, blessing & guidance for man”.
(ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻴﺤﻴﺔ ﻓﻲ ﻛﻼﻡ ﺍﻹﻣﺎﻡ ﺍﻟﺨﺎﻣﻨﺌﻲ(دام ظله).
Trinity is the declaration of war against monotheism. Indeed, Trinity is a form of polytheism.
Almighty God said:
لَّقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَۚ قُلۡ فَمَن يَمۡلِكُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيۡـًٔا إِنۡ أَرَادَ أَن يُهۡلِكَ ٱلۡمَسِيحَ ٱبۡنَ مَرۡيَمَ وَأُمَّهُۥ وَمَن فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ جَمِيعٗاۗ وَلِلَّهِ مُلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَاۚ يَخۡلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ قَدِيرٞ.
“They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, Then who could prevent Allah at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth? And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allah is over all things competent”.
(Al-Maeda : 17).
لَّقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَٰثَةٖۘ وَمَا مِنۡ إِلَٰهٍ إِلَّآ إِلَٰهٞ وَٰحِدٞۚ وَإِن لَّمۡ يَنتَهُواْ عَمَّا يَقُولُونَ لَيَمَسَّنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِنۡهُمۡ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ.
“They have certainly disbelieved who say, Allah is the third of three. And there is no god except one God. And if they do not desist from what they are saying, there will surely afflict the disbelievers among them a painful punishment”.
(Al-Maeda : 73)
Jesus was not crucified, but was raised bodily to Heaven by God, a similar belief is found in the Gospel of Basilides. The issue of the crucifixion, death and resurrection of Jesus is rejected.
Almighty God said:
وَقَوۡلِهِمۡ إِنَّا قَتَلۡنَا ٱلۡمَسِيحَ عِيسَى ٱبۡنَ مَرۡيَمَ رَسُولَ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ وَلَٰكِن شُبِّهَ لَهُمۡۚ وَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱخۡتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ لَفِي شَكّٖ مِّنۡهُۚ مَا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنۡ عِلۡمٍ إِلَّا ٱتِّبَاعَ ٱلظَّنِّۚ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ يَقِينَۢا.
“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”.
(An-Nisa : 157).
بَل رَّفَعَهُ ٱللَّهُ إِلَيۡهِۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمٗا
“Rather, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise”.
(An-Nisa : 158).
Muslims believe Jesus will return at the end of the world, but similar to Christians they believe that Jesus will return before the end of time. For this reason; Almighty God said:
وَإِن مِّنۡ أَهۡلِ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ إِلَّا لَيُؤۡمِنَنَّ بِهِۦ قَبۡلَ مَوۡتِهِۦۖ وَيَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ يَكُونُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ شَهِيدٗا.
“And there is not any one of the People of the Book but surely believes in him (Jesus) before his death, and on the Day of Resurrection, he will be a witness over them”.
(An-Nisa : 159).
Some argue that Jesus was rescued but was given death by God before he was ascended bodily, their reason is that Almighty Allah says:
إِذۡ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَٰعِيسَىٰٓ إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَيَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَجَاعِلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُوكَ فَوۡقَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيَّ مَرۡجِعُكُمۡ فَأَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَكُمۡ فِيمَا كُنتُمۡ فِيهِ تَخۡتَلِفُونَ.
“When Allah said, O Jesus, indeed I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify you from those who disbelieve and make those who follow you (in submission to Allah alone) superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ”.
(Aal-e-Imran : 55).
Jesus himself said:
ۡۖفَلَمَّا تَوَفَّيۡتَنِي كُنتَ أَنتَ ٱلرَّقِيبَ عَلَيۡهِمۡۚ وَأَنتَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ شَهِيدٌ.
“…But when You took me up, You were the Observer over them, and You are, over all things, Witness”.
(Al-Maeda : 117).
The verb “mutawafik” (ﻣﺘﻮﻓﻴﻚ) and “tawaffaitani” (تَوَفَّيۡتَني) in these verses means “to terminate after a period of time” not means “to die of natural causes”, because Allah said:
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَتَوَفَّىٰكُم بِٱلَّيۡلِ وَيَعۡلَمُ مَا جَرَحۡتُم بِٱلنَّهَارِ ثُمَّ يَبۡعَثُكُمۡ فِيهِ لِيُقۡضَىٰٓ أَجَلٞ مُّسَمّٗىۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيۡهِ مَرۡجِعُكُمۡ ثُمَّ يُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ.
“And it is He who takes your souls by night and knows what you have committed by day. Then He revives you therein that a specified term may be fulfilled. Then to Him will be your return; then He will inform you about what you used to do”.
(Al-Anaam : 60).
