This is a question that is often debated by Muslims and Christians.
The Christians refer to the four gospel accounts that provide clear accounts of Christ's crucifixion. Historians, including atheists usually agree Christ was crucified. When they don't its because they don't believe Jesus existed at all.
Muslims believe Jesus wasn't crucified at all based on the following verses in the Quran.
Historicity of Jesus - Wikipedia
And [We cursed them] for their breaking of the covenant and their disbelief in the signs of Allah and their killing of the prophets without right and their saying, "Our hearts are wrapped". Rather, Allah has sealed them because of their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few.
And [We cursed them] for their disbelief and their saying against Mary a great slander,
And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah ." 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, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise.
Surah An-Nisa [4:155-158]
These verses are taken literally. Many Muslims believe that the body of Jesus was substituted and another crucified in His place.

So who is right, and why?
For what its worth, Baha'is believe Christ was crucified.
