An-Nisa 157

وَقَوْلِهِمْ اِنَّا قَتَلْنَا الْمَس۪يحَ ع۪يسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولَ اللّٰهِۚ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ وَلٰكِنْ شُبِّهَ لَهُمْۜ وَاِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ اخْتَلَفُوا ف۪يهِ لَف۪ي شَكٍّ مِنْهُۜ مَا لَهُمْ بِه۪ مِنْ عِلْمٍ اِلَّا اتِّبَاعَ الظَّنِّۚ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ يَق۪ينًاۙ ۝١٥٧

157And because they said, "We killed the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, Allah's messenger"... Yet they neither managed to kill him nor to crucify him. But they supposed so. Those who differ about Jesus are in deep doubt about this. They have no certain knowledge about it; they only follow conjecture. They certainly did not manage to kill him.
