وَقَوْلِهِمْ إِنَّا قَتَلْنَا ٱلْمَسِيحَ عِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولَ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ وَلَـٰكِن شُبِّهَ لَهُمْ ۚ وَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱخْتَلَفُوا۟ فِيهِ لَفِى شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ ۚ مَا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِلَّا ٱتِّبَاعَ ٱلظَّنِّ ۚ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ يَقِينًۢا

TRANSLITERATION

Waqawlihim innā qatalnal-masīḥa ʿīsabna maryama rasūlallāh, wamā qatalūhu wamā ṣalabūhu walākin shubbiha lahum, waʾinnal-ladhīnakhtalafū fīhi lafī shakkim minh, mā lahum bihī min ʿilmin illattibāʿaẓ-ẓanni wamā qatalūhu yaqīnā

ENGLISH TRANSLATION · TALAL ITANI

And for their saying, “We have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of God.” In fact, they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, but it appeared to them as if they did. Indeed, those who differ about him are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it, except the following of assumptions. Certainly, they did not kill him.
