Resurrection
CRITICAL: Must affirm a real bodily death followed by bodily resurrection. The Qur’an (4:157) denies that Jesus was actually killed or crucified, teaching instead that he was raised (göğe yükseliş) without dying. Diriliş must never be softened into or conflated with a no-death ascension narrative; the historical death is as doctrinally load-bearing as the resurrection itself.
