Why Muslims have reasons to believe in the death of Jesus on the cross and His resurrection
- The Quran did not deny that Jesus died on the cross
- The Quran teaches that Allah will cause Jesus to die
- Making someone who looked like Jesus hang on the cross is not consistent with the character of God
- No teaching in the Quran that Jesus will come back to earth the second time to die
- Jesus Himself prophesied that He would die
Other Muslim attempts to refute the resurrection of Jesus
- Jesus knew that he would not have to die on the cross
- Jesus was unwilling to die so God will surely rescue him
- Jesus managed to survive the crucifixion
- Jesus managed to escape the guards
- Jesus was constantly in disguise and hiding
- Jesus and the angels told Mary that he was not dead
- Jesus taught that he would not die
- God would not let Jesus (or His chosen ones in general) be killed
- There was no mention of Jesus’ death/resurrection in places you would expect
- Muslims can give no good explanation that Jesus did not die on the cross
