Ayat 3:55 of the Quran (Surah Ali 'Imran) describes Allah's promise to Jesus ('Isa), stating, "I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify you from those who disbelieve". It highlights raising Jesus to heaven, clearing him of slander, and placing his followers above disbelievers until the Day of Resurrection.
(3:55) (And it was part of His scheme) when Allah said: 'O Jesus! I will recall you51 and raise you up to Me and will purify you (of the company) of those who disbelieve,52 and will set your followers above the unbelievers till the Day of Resurrection.
[Aal 'Imraan 3:55]. This is a promise from Allah, may He be exalted, to the followers of 'Eesaa (Jesus – peace be upon him) that He would make them superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection.
Most Christians view Jesus as God incarnate, the Son of God in human flesh, but the Quran denies the divinity of Jesus and his status as Son of God in several verses, and also says that Jesus did not claim to be personally God nor the Son of God.
Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ. ( 3:55) This verse refers to the time before Jesus was raised up to God after avoiding being crucified. “purify you from those who disbelieve” in this verse means being cleared of blame from those who disbelieve.
Our Lord! We believe in that which Thou hast revealed and we follow him whom Thou hast sent. Enrol us among those who witness (to the truth). Our Lord, we have believed in what You have sent down, and we have closely followed the Messenger, so write us down with (the ones) who bear witness.”
The death of Jesus is asserted several times and in various contexts (Quran 3:55; 5:117; 19:33).
˹Remember˺ when Allah said, “O Jesus! I will take you 1 and raise you up to Myself. I will deliver you from those who disbelieve, and elevate your followers above the disbelievers until the Day of Judgment. Then to Me you will ˹all˺ return, and I will settle all your disputes.
So, believe in Allah and His Messengers, and do not say, “Three.” Refrain; most charitable is it for you; surely Allah is only One God. All Extolment be to Him-that He should have a child. To Him (belongs) whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth; and Allah suffices for an Ever-Trusted Trustee.
No, Quran 9:31 does not say Jesus is God; instead, it criticizes people for taking their religious leaders (rabbis, monks) and the Messiah (Jesus) as "lords" (in obedience/authority) besides Allah, emphasizing that worship is due to Allah alone, not elevating Jesus to divinity, a core Islamic concept of Tawhid (oneness of God). The verse highlights the error of shirk (associating partners with God) by following figures other than Allah, not a divine status for Jesus, who Muslims revere as a great prophet, as explained in various Islamic interpretations.
The Quran also refers to Jesus as the Messiah. Muslims believe that Jesus was never actually crucified, but rather he was saved by God. Therefore, Jesus did not die, but was raised to the heavens.

It would follow that Jesus is called the word of God in the Qur'an because he was brought into existence by God without a father, but by direct divine decree, in accordance with the interpretation of most of the exegetes (mufassirin).
meaning, He is the Creator and thus is the only deity worthy of worship, without partners, and His is the perfect might, wisdom and decision. This Ayah refers to the fact that `Isa, son of Mary, is a created servant, just as Allah created the rest of mankind.

Christians in Malaysia and Indonesia use Allah to refer to God in the Malaysian and Indonesian languages (both of them standardized forms of the Malay language). Mainstream Bible translations in the language use Allah as the translation of Hebrew Elohim (translated in English Bibles as "God").
The Prophet Muhammad sought to erase any distinctions between the message he taught and that taught by Jesus, whom he called God's “spirit and word.” Prophet Muhammad said: “Both in this world and in the Hereafter, I am the nearest of all people to Jesus, the son of Mary.
Muslims believe that Jesus was not crucified. It was the plan of Jesus' enemies to crucify him, but God saved him and raised him up to Him. And the likeness of Jesus was put over another man. Jesus' enemies took this man and crucified him, thinking that he was Jesus.
Muhammad Ali respected Jesus as a significant prophet in Islam, calling him "God's spirit and word," but as a convert to the Nation of Islam and later Sunni Islam, he rejected the Christian doctrine of Jesus as the divine Son of God, viewing him as a great messenger of God, not God himself, and emphasizing submission to Allah as the path to salvation. Ali saw commonality in faiths, believing "Rivers, lakes, ponds, streams, oceans all have different names, but they all contain water. So do religions have different names, and they all contain truth," but his Islamic beliefs distinguished him from Christian theology.
'the deceitful Messiah'), otherwise referred to simply as the Dajjal, is an antagonistic figure in Islamic apocalyptism who will pretend to be the promised Messiah and later claim to be God, appearing before the Day of Judgment according to the Islamic eschatological narrative.
