Well, that is a most interesting response.
Are you saying that the events of the crucifixion are a historical ruse,

Historically? These are not my words. In the second and third century there were various beliefs concerning Christianity and the nature of Jesus. There were those who believed that Jesus was both divine and human, God and man, while other Christians argued that he was completely divine and not human at all. There were those who insist that Jesus was fully human and not divine. Some Christians in the 2nd and 3rd centuries believed in One God, others in 2 gods, some in 3 and some of them even believed in 365 gods. There were Christians who believed that Jesus never tasted death at all. And the list can go like for ever.


So history cannot really establish what exactly happened to him. But as far as the Qur'an is concerned, he was not killed nor Crucified, but it was made to appear to them so.


” That they said (in boast) “We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah” – but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge , but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not.
(Qur’an 4:157)

What do you mean by the "only alive prophet?"
If I may speculate, are you saying he faked his death, never actually died, and is still alive today as a result of not having died?

He did not fake his death simply because he did not die at all according to Islam, and till this day, he is still alive.
