What the Bible Says..
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree." (Galatians 3:13).
What the Qur'an Says..
When the angles said: "O Mary! Allah gives you the glad tidings of a Word from Him, his name will be the Messiah Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honor in this world and in the Hereafter, and of the company of those nearest to Allah." (Qur'an 3:45).
And because of their saying (in boast): "We killed the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary," the Messenger of Allah, but they Killed him not, nor crucified him but the likeness of him was put on another man (and they killed that man). And those who differ therein are full of doubts, They have no knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely, they killed him not. But Allah raised him up into himself. And Allah is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise. (Qur'an 4:157-158).
Commentary..
The Bible says that Prophet Jesus (pbuh) was crucified to bear God's wrath for the sins of the believers and accordingly he was cursed. On the contrary, Muslims believe, according to the Qur'an, that he was neither crucified nor cursed but was held and will be held in honor in this life and Hereafter.
