The verse 'I will give you death' and Jesus's words in 5:117 that he does not know what his people did after he was taken show, in Mufti Abu Layth's reading, that Jesus died; the Prophet himself, in a Bukhari report, applies the same verse to his own absence from his companions, confirming the reading.

19 Jan 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Did Ibn Ashur say Jesus was raised alive and will return?
