What is Easter to Muslims? Is Jesus a Prophet in Islam?
Easter is a Christian celebration, on what is believed to be the resurrection of Jesus, three days after dying on the cross for the sins of Mankind
Muslims know Jesus (PBUH) as Isa (A.S), who is important figure in Islam and is regarded as a Prophet of Allah (SWT), But Muslims do not believe that Jesus (Isa A.S) was crucified and that another took his place on the cross and he as ascended to heaven by Allah (SWT)
![وَقَولِهِم إِنّا قَتَلنَا المَسيحَ عيسَى ابنَ مَريَمَ رَسولَ اللَّهِ وَما قَتَلوهُ وَما صَلَبوهُ وَلٰكِن شُبِّهَ لَهُم ۚ وَإِنَّ الَّذينَ اختَلَفوا فيهِ لَفي شَكٍّ مِنهُ ۚ ما لَهُم بِهِ مِن عِلمٍ إِلَّا اتِّباعَ الظَّنِّ ۚ وَما قَتَلوهُ يَقينًا﴿ ۱۵۷﴾
بَل رَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَيهِ ۚ وَكانَ اللَّهُ عَزيزًا حَكيمًا﴿ ۱۵۸﴾
﴿القران:| سورۃ النساء ﴾
And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allāh." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.
Rather, Allāh raised him to Himself. And ever is Allāh Exalted in Might and Wise.

Muslims believe Jesus (Isa A.S) will return to earth before the day of judgement to restore justice and defeat the false Messiah (Dajjal) also knows as the anti-Christ
