Resurrection
CRITICAL: a descriptive phrase (‘coming back to life from the dead’) is required rather than a single technical term. The specific theological risk is that mainstream Sunni interpretation of Quran 4:157 holds that Isa was not actually crucified at all (‘it was made to appear so to them’), directly denying the historical event Romans 1:4 and 4:25 depend on — a doctrine well known among Kashmiri Muslim readers given the strength of regional Islamic religious education. This curriculum must state the historical claim plainly rather than assume it uncontested.
