Jesus Crucified or Substituted?

Between Gnostic Thought and Islamic Theology

Islam denies the Crucifixion, claiming that someone took Christ’s form and was crucified in His stead (the Substitution Theory), while Christianity believes that Christ was truly crucified. This book confirms the Christian position and argues that the Islamic view was borrowed from the second century Gnostic/Docetic interpretation of the Crucifixion, attributed to Basilides of Alexandria. The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent to which the Islamic claim reflects the historical event. Methods used to achieve the conclusion are historical and systematic, as historical material and theological concepts are examined.
