Was the Messiah, peace be upon him, tortured before his ascension, even though he was not crucified?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
All narrations about the crucifixion of Jesus, peace be upon him, are numerous and belong to the Israʼiliyyat (narrations from Jewish sources). Al-Tabari mentioned two narrations from Wahb ibn Munabbih, one of which states that Jesus was tormented then raised, and Allah cast his likeness upon another person, who was then crucified.
