What is the belief of Muslims concerning Christ Jesus son of Mary? Did he claim divinity? Will he descend at the end of time? Did he die or was he raised?
The Muslim belief concerning Christ Jesus, peace be upon him, is to affirm that he is a servant of Allah and His Messenger, sent to the Children of Israel, and that he is neither a god nor the son of God. Allah supported him with miracles, and he was born of the Virgin Mary without a father. He was raised alive to the heavens and did not die or get killed. He will descend at the end of time to refute those who claimed he was killed or that he is divine. He will break the cross, kill the swine, and abolish the jizya (tribute tax), then he will die and be buried. On the Day of Judgment, he will disavow those who claimed his divinity. Whoever testifies to this will enter Paradise.
