I assume you are referring to the claim that Yeshua (radi Allahu ‘anhu) did not exist as a real person, but is the product of myth-making on the part of the New Testament writers.
The Islamic view is simple: He was a real person; not divine; not crucified; not buried, only to rise again on the third day; a prophet of Allāh (Subḥānahu ūta'āla); and Messiah.

For mythicism to hold any credibility you would have to disregard what the jews and muslims believe..
In islam jesus AS is a key figure in history and declared as a prophet of god..
Specifically mentioned in scripture.
Although both the jewish and islamic faith hold opinion and scripture on the faith of christianity.

Your absolutely right and i was with you until the rising on the third day..

Please clarify.
Not crucified, not buried..
only to rise again on the third day
Sorry i am wholely ignorant sometimes.
Sorry for the confusion. I meant that Islam does not teach the crucifixion, burial, and subsequent resurrection of Yeshua (radi Allahu ‘anhu) after three days in the tomb (as claimed in the Gospels).
I hope this clarifies matters.
