===Crucifixions in Ancient Egypt===
===Crucifixions in Ancient Egypt===
There are no references from any culture anywhere in the world to crucifixion as a method of execution before 500BCE, where they started to appear in several middle eastern cultures, and it is not clear that their crucifixions were the same as what we know(the Roman crucifixion)/they are the same type. Ancient Egypt has been extensively studied in archaeology as well.However, the Qur’an tells of crucifixions in the time of Joseph(approximately 2000BCE) and Moses(approximately 1500BCE).


Not only that but they are often used in a very casual way in the qu'ran, so the practice must have been widespread enough to be understood by common people, as common people are being addressed in these suras.

Said Pharaoh: "Believe ye in Him before I give you permission? Surely this is a trick which ye have planned in the city to drive out its people: but soon shall ye know (the consequences). Be sure I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will cause you all to die on the cross."  }}


I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides; then I will surely crucify you all."  }}
