Best Answer

Muslims do not believe that Jesus (peace be upon him) was crucified.

They believe that the enemies of Jesus (peace upon him) plotted and planned to crucify Jesus. However, God miraculously saved Jesus and raised him up to Him (to God). God, the all Powerful and the all Capable, put the likeness of Jesus (peace upon him) over another man. The enemies of Jesus (peace upon him) thought that this other man is Jesus and they took him and crucified him.

God says in Quran:

{...They said, "We killed the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God." They did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, but the likeness of him was put on another man (and they killed that man)... }

(Quran, chapter 4, verse 157)

Why do Muslims use a crucifix when they are praying?

Answer 1Christians carry a crucifix and not MuslimsAnswer 2Muslims never use crucifix while praying. There is no religious symbol used in Islam or used by Muslims. It is different than Christianity and Judaism where cross and David star are used; respectively; as religious symbols.Answer 3The symbol of the Cross represents something very central to Christianity, namely the sacrifice that Jesus made to absolve all humanity of sin. Muslims, firstly, do not hold that Jesus had any intention of doing this and his actions have been misconstrued by Christians. Secondly, Muslims do not believe that Jesus was crucified and that an imposter sat upon the cross. Therefore, the Cross is meaningless to Muslims and they do not use it in their prayers.Some Muslim men use Tasbih or Prayer Beads when they meditate, but not during the actual Harakat or Prostrations. The purpose of the Tasbih to remind the pious Muslim of the various attributes of God.
