**Topics:** Jesus in the Quran; The second coming of Jesus

**Question as asked:** Explain Jesus' story in the Quran: how does Allah say he was raised up? And can you explain Yajuj and Majuj in detail?

**Summary (not a quotation; machine-made, unchecked):** Mufti Abu Layth refers viewers to his detailed videos and says the Quran does not say how Jesus died, which does not mean he did not die, just as it is silent on Moses' death.

**Checked position (checked by two independent reviews, not by the channel):** Mufti Abu Layth says the Quran does not say how Jesus died, which does not mean he did not die, just as it does not say how Moses died.

**Evidence, his words at 1:11:20:** “there are some things the quran does not highlight how did jesus die it doesn't highlight that okay it doesn't mean he didn't die but then the quran doesn't mention how moses died” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--PntsaR8ck&t=4280s)

## Longer summary

Turning to the super chats, Mufti Abu Layth takes a request to explain the story of Jesus in the Quran, how he was raised up, and Yajuj and Majuj in detail. He refers to four or five detailed videos, some of them debates, including his refutation of a shaykh [?] whom he accuses of misquotation. He says there are things the Quran does not highlight: it does not say how Jesus died, which does not mean he did not die, just as it does not say how Moses died or where he was buried.
