Descension of Isa (alaihis salaam)

Question

I want to know what are the saying of Holy Quraan and Hadeeth about Esa (Alaihis salam) that he was not crucified and will come back in this world again. Please give reference of Quraan and sahi hadeeth. Many muslim and non muslim do ask about this and I am unable to satisfy them in lack of Quraanic reference.

Answer

The Qur'aan has got this in the 6th para that he was not crucified nor killed. And every Christian will believe in him before he dies (after his descension).

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
