Occurred to me that since today is Easter, I'd share what Muslims believe a bit about Jesus' life & death, or as he is referred to in the Quran, Isa (pbuh). It's the tradition that after the name of any prophet of God we say peace be upon him, hence (pbuh).
#Easter
Muslims believe in the Virgin Birth and Jesus is called the "Word of God" and "the Messiah" in our scripture. He is called the "Word" because we believe God said "Be", and Jesus was created through this command.
We believe he raised the dead and healed the sick by the permission of God. We don't believe he is divine, he is one of 25 prophets mentioned in the Quran and one of tens thousands of messengers of God sent to mankind over time, all with similar messages for humanity.
Sunni Muslims don't believe Jesus was crucified (sorry can't speak to other sects). We believe he was lifted to heaven by God still alive and another was crucified that took on his image to fool his captors.
We believe he will return in a second coming and finish living his mortal life after defeating the anti-Christ. He is the only prophet, according to our tradition, who has not yet experienced death, and continues to be fully alive in the presence of God.

THE END.
