And as for the people who differ with regard to ‘ I s a (namely, the Christians say that ‘ I s a was raised alive to heaven, and the Jews say that they killed him), both of these groups are in a state of absolute doubt. They know nothing at all about the reality of the situation, and they do not have definitive knowledge, but are merely following their conjectures. In other words, ‘ I s a nei- ther ascended to heaven as is the thinking of the Christians, nor was he killed at the hands of the Jews as is the conjecture of the Jews, but the correct situation is a third one; namely, that he was saved [from the cross] and migrated to another country. And the Jews themselves are not certain that they killed him. In fact, God exalted him towards Himself, and God is Almighty and Wise. 2 ٭ It is evident that these verses begin with this statement of the Jews who said: 3 اَّنِا اَنْلَتَق َحْيِسَمْلا ىَسْيِع َنْبا َمَيْرَم Meaning: ‘We killed the Messiah, ‘ I s a ibn Maryam. ’ Hence, it was 1.

Thus, God answered them by saying that ‘ I s a was not killed but was exalted towards God Almighty in the manner of the believers. (Author) 3. S u rah an-Nis a ’, 4:158 [Publisher]
