My Beloved.

The first time we met I was young and innocent, I fell inlove with you naturally, like it was meant to be. I loved you and you loved me, there was no compulsion in our union, it was simple and beautiful,just like you. Till date I don’t regret meeting you at my prime, I was younger and you were older but you didn’t take advantage of me, you held my hand all through and protected me from the evil eyes. When I got angry with anyone you calmed me down, you taught me how to smile at all times, I don’t really have the adequate vocabulary to describe you. If only people can really know you, if only they take their time to study you my beloved, then they will realise how special you really are. Please permit me to tell them your name, so they can come searching for you, though I would have loved to keep you to myself, but you have taught me to never be greedy and to share goodness with my fellow humans.
My beautiful “islam”.

Seyyid.

This Makes Me sad :(

I don’t know how many times I am going to keep saying this over and over! I don’t know! But I will never stop saying it…I will never stop saying Islam is not terrorism. There is no connection between islam and terrorism. Islam rather is peace.

This whole thing makes me sad :(. I mean our beloved prophet Muhammed(pbuh) NEVER EVER preached hatred. He even advised muslims to treat their neighbours as though they had blood ties even though they were not muslims.

I don’t know if there is a conspiracy somewhere! I don’t have any idea what’s going on, but what I do know is that I am a muslim and I am not a terrorist neither is my religion; Islam.

Beautiful Story: The Journey.

   One day of the many days, there was a man travelling with
his Wife and Kids. On the way they met a person standing
on the roadside.

He asked: “Who are you?”

The man said: “I am ‘the Money’.”

So the man asked his wife and kids: “Should we ask him to
ride with us?”

They all said together: “Yes, of course! Because ‘the Money’
can help us do anything we want and get anything we
wished.” So they took ‘the Money’ to ride with them.

The vehicle continued on its way until they met another person on the road.

The Father asked: “Who are you?”

He said: “I am ‘the high position and power’.”
So the father asked his wife and kids: “Should we ask him
to ride with us?”
They all answered in one voice: “Yes, of course! Because
with ‘the high position and power’ we have the ability to
do anything we want and own anything we wished.” So they
took ‘the high position and power’ with them, and the
vehicle continued to finish its trip.

In this way, they met with many people who promised
pleasures and desires of life,

   UNTIL… They met one strange person… The Father asked: “Who are you?”

He said: “I am ‘the Deen’ (Islam).”

So the father, the wife, and the kids; all of them said in
one voice: “No, no, this isn’t the time, we desire the
pleasures of life and the Dunyah. ‘The Deen’ will prevent us
and then stop us from all pleasurable things and it will
take control of our lives. We will be worn-out from being
loyal to it and its teachings. The Halaal and the Haraam,
and this thing ‘prayer’ and that thing ‘Hijaab’, and the
fasting, and; and; and; and; and; etc, It will be a burden
for us!!!”

“But certainly, we will return to pick you up after we enjoy
life and everything else in it.”

So sadly, they left him behind and the vehicle continued on
its trip.

All of a sudden, out of nowhere something appeared in the
middle of the road. It was a check-point with the sign
saying STOP!!! They found a man gesturing for the father to
get out of the vehicle.

The man said to the father: “Your trip has ended. Come with me.”

The father was shocked with fear and did not say a word.
The man said to him: “I am searching for ‘the DEEN’/islam. Is he with you?”

The father answered: “No, I left him not too far back. If you
could allow me to go back, I will get him for you.”

The man said: “You do not have the ability to go back now.
Your trip has ended and there is no returning… going back
is impossible.”

“But I have ‘The Money’; ‘the high position and power’; My
Wife; My Kids; and; and; and; and; and; and; so on.”

The man said to him: “Neither will they benefit you now
nor will they protect you when you come in front of Allah.
Not even one bit! You have left all of them behind. The
only one that will help you now is ‘The Deen’ you know, the
one who YOU left behind on the road.”

The father asked: “And who are you exactly?”

He replied: “I AM ‘the DEATH‘ – The one who you were
heedless of – and the one who you did not think of on your
trip!!!”

The father turned around and looked at his vehicle and
found his wife taking control and continuing the trip along
with all of the passengers besides him. And none of them
had stayed behind with him. He was left all alone!

LET US NOT COMPROMISE OUR DEEN FOR THE WORLDLY
THINGS. ONLY OUR DEEN WILL ACCOMPANY US BEYOND THE GRAVE. May ALLAH give us the ability to always do the
things that will help us on the Day of Reckoning. Aameen.

POEM: I’m Islam.

Assalamu alaikum, may peace be upon you!
I’m Islam,
The religion of peace & ease
Islam is not hatred or adversity.

Hold on a minute,

I’m sure you are familiar with me,
Oh yes you’re,
You see me everyday in the news,
Been accused of things I didn’t do,

Are you amused or transfixed cause I’m been abused?

let me break it down for you,
Like my brother kadir rightly said,
In his last poem; i am not a terrorist

They say,
I have become a threat to the west to the world in wide,
I have been black listed,
Among the list of the rest to the west,
You know,
It sounds so funny when I’m been addressed as a terror,
Some even go far calling me an error,
They say i terrorise & create tension
that’s not my intention,
I don’t give out such instructions,
If you look at my obligations
You will see why I have great reputation,

I have obligated you to fast & pray,
& not discriminate,
I have obligated you not to hate & to lower your gaze,
For lustful eyes crystallize Into habit & habit solidifies into circumstance,
I tell you not to use harmful substance,
For the pain won’t subside,
it mostly lead to suicide,
I tell you to respect others religion,
and play with your wife during your leisure,
I tell you to be kind to others & never raise your hand on a woman,
I mean if I tell you that,
Why would you raise your hand on a human,

I have given you a holy book of truth,
Sent from up above your roof,
Yet you go from root to root searching for truth & then you end up been used,
I tell you not to kill unjustly.

You may call me a saint,

Yes I’m,
cause i’ve been sent by the Creator to the creations.

I’m not a preacher nor a teacher,
But I’m here to preach to those who are wretched & rich,
And among my messages to humanity is that vanity creates insanity.

Some take up the responsibility to defend my name,

in time of shame,

Some i permit ,some i do not,
For you will have a shade in hereafter if you are just.

POEM: MY NAME IS ISLAM.

Let me, introduce myself.

My name, is Islam.

image

The root word of peace- Salam,

Or even salema- meaning submission.

Which to a Muslim, is like his tuition.

It’s his ticket in,

But before I begin,

Let me greet you, like I’m supposed to do,

So Assalamu alaikum, may peace be upon you!

image

You know?It’s kinda’ funny…

I’m accused of oppressing, when really I’m oppressed.

I’ve become on the list of things to detest.

I’m screamed in rage, in almost every protest,

& I’ve become the “red scare”, a “threat to the west”.

You see?

If you look at me, and all my obligations,

image

You’ll see why I have such a great population,

It’s cause there’s the motivation,

And that sense of inspiration,

That keeps “Muslim” as their occupation.

image

To me, being a good Muslim means being a good person.

image

‘cause I’ll never ask you to kill or to slay,

Or to lie at least 5 times a day.

I’ll never ask you steal, or to hate,

Or to swear or discriminate.

I actually tell you to smile to everyone you see,

image

Cause a smile’s the best form of charity.

I tell you to not smoke and not to drink,

To stay clean and take showers so you simply don’t stink.

I tell you to care for animals and treat them with care,

So yes, I’m against animal testing & abuse in case you weren’t aware.

I tell you to treat those who treat you bitter…better.

I tell you not to be mad at someone for more than 3 days,

I tell you to respect women and lower your gaze.

image

I tell you that paradise lies under the feet of your mother,

image

I tell you to passionately love your significant other.

image

I tell you to never mistreat your wife!

image

I mean…if I tell you to care for animals, then what about the love of your life?

I tell you to be precious, and save yourself for the “one”.

So you don’t keep giving yourself away…till you’re literally done.

I tell you to be moderate and that balance is key,

Just in the middle is the perfect place to be.

I tell you to excel in all that you do,

From that essay to that slam-dunk too!

I tell you to clear your ignorance and to never judge,

To love for your bro what you love for yourself; & to never hold a grudge.

I tell you how to be a good person. A person of peace, and a person of love.

-&

They say I’m a terrorist,

An extremist.

And you know what? I am.

I am a terrorist; I terrorize terror,

I kill injustice to make this world fairer.

I am an extremist; I am extremely kind.

So beware of my extreme benevolence, to all of mankind.

Yes, there are those who kill and bomb in my name,

But if i don’t approve, then why am i to be blamed?

In every religion, you’ll find those who abuse it,

Thinking they have a permit,

To do wrong.

A religion maybe perfect, but the followers may not be.

So when mine commit mistakes, don’t blame it on me.

I give what I got, and what I got is good.

So if they do otherwise…they misunderstood.

& I’m not here to preach, I’m only here to teach.

I’m a professor in politics, economy and sociology.

In manners and etiquette, I got my PHD.

To all my teachings, I have two sources.

The book of God

image

, and the words of the prophet are my resources.

I teach for free and to whoever desires to learn,

It’s all for the sake of Allah

image

, I ask for nothing in return.

& Listen,

I’m not here to convert, but just to clear misconceptions.

With the way I’m viewed and my common perception.

Because yes, it hurts when I’m literally abused,

By some, who do it for pleasure, just to be amused.

& By some, who just follow the “trend” cause they’re clearly confused.

In a nutshell, my name is Islam,

image

And everything I do, goes back to Salam,

image

… Peace.
image

& so as your prof, I need to make sure you pass this test called Life.

THREE QUALITIES TO TASTE THE SWEETNESS OF IMAN.

Three qualities to taste the sweetness of Iman in Islam.

Narrated Anas bin Malik (RadhiAllahu ‘anhu),
The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Whoever possesses the following three qualities will taste the sweetness of faith:

1. The one to whom Allah and His Apostle become
dearer than anything else.

2. Who loves a person and he loves him only for Allah’s
sake.

3. Who hates to revert to disbelief (Atheism) after Allah
has brought (saved) him out from it, as he hates to be
thrown in fire.”
[Sahih Bukhari – Book 2, Hadith 20]

POEM: I’M NOT A TERRORIST.

image

What’s your name?
Abubakar salim bin jahedee
sorry sir you will have to step back,
Bloody hypocrites,
how does my religion connect to terrorism,
I’m just a tourist in your territory,
no doubt,
my fellow brothers who dress like me,
act upon their anger due to ignorance,
and the quest for freedom ,peace& justice,
Just see,
What a curious coincides that is,
-but does that make me a terrorist?
Islam’s a religion of peace,
yet they propagate islam with bad image,
Which is a huge damage,
Who’s involved in horrendous crimes,
Who oppresses mere harmless civilians?
When we retaliate the world begins to hate and start
generalizing,
without realizing what conspired,
-does that make me a terrorist?
Its we muslims who suffer from terrorism,
all around the globe,
Terrorizing and vandalising isn’t islam heritage,
Impressed and obsessed you are with your TV,
believing the twisted story as it gets to you with no atom
of truth,
Corrupted by silly illusions,
Apportioning blame on hopeless islamist seeking for
peace,
Do you still think i’m a terrorist?
Develop some form of reservation when you call us
terrorists,
I need not to speak through my nose,
before you know islam is against all kinds of injustice,
-How can I be a terrorist then?
Innocent muslims die everyday,
In the hands of american soldiers
yet we are never part of the mainstream news.
No one cares,
Take a soul of an american citizen,
Then the whole world will point at muslims as terrorist,
how tragic,
-does that make me a terrorist?
As a Reflection & manifestation,
Of an expression to the element of truth,
My Quran says,
you with your religion & me with my religion,
-does that sound like words of a terrorist?
I dress in the most noblest of form,
Yet you criticize me while you breed monsters in your
country,
Man to woman, woman to man all in the name of
civilization,
All these leaves me spellbound,speechless & riveted
In loneliness and seclusion,
Reflect over the word terrorism,
And you will see it has no connection with islam,
i’m a muslim not a terrorist.

ISLAM and Bloodshade. Its your decision to make.

1. The First World War 17 million dead

“Do not cause corruption on the earth,” they
say, “We are but reformers.”
Al-Quran (2:11).

Islam is a religion of peace.

The nurse and the muslim patient.

  My name is Cassie, I am 23 years old. I graduated as a
qualified nurse this year and was given my first position as
a home nurse.
My patient was an English gentleman in his early 80s who
suffered from Alzheimer’s. In the first meeting, the patient
was given his record and from it I could see that he was a
convert to the religion of Islam, therefore he was a
Muslim.
   I knew from this that I would need to take into account
some modes of treatment that may go against his faith,
and therefore try to adapt my care to meet his needs. I
brought in some ‘halal’ meat to cook for him and ensured
that there was no pork or alcohol in the premises as I did
some research which showed that these were forbidden in
Islam.
My patient was in a very advanced stage of his condition so
a lot of my colleagues could not understand why I was
going through so much effort for him. But I understood
that a person who commits to a faith deserves that
commitment to be respected, even if they are not in a
position to understand.
Anyway after a few weeks with my patient I began to notice
some patterns of movement.
    At first I thought it was some copied motions he’s seen
someone doing, but I saw him repeat the movement at
particular time; morning, afternoon, evening.
The movements were to raise his hands, bow and then put
his head to the ground. I could not understand it. He was
also repeating sentences in another language, I couldn’t
figure out what language it was as his speech was slurred
but I know the same verses were repeated daily.
Also there was something strange, he didn’t allow me to
feed him with my left hand (I am left-handed).
Somehow I knew this linked to his religion but didn’t know
how.
One of my colleagues told me about paltalk as a place for
debates and discussions and as I did not know any Muslims
except for my patient I thought it would be good to speak
to someone live and ask questions. I went on the Islam
section and entered the room ‘True Message’.
Here I asked questions regarding the repeated movements
and was told that these were the actions of prayer. I did
not really believe it until someone posted a link of the
Islamic prayer on youtube.
I was shocked.
A man who has lost all memory of his children, of his
occupation, and could barely eat and drink was able to
remember not only actions of prayer but verses that were
in another language.
This was nothing short of incredible and I knew that this
man was devout in his faith, which made me want to learn
more in order to care for him the best I could.
I came into the paltalk room as often as I could and was
given a link to read the translation of the Quran and listen
to it.
The chapter of the ‘Bee’ gave me chills and I repeated it
several times a day.
I saved a recording of the Quran on my iPod and gave it to
my patient to listen to, he was smiling and crying, and in
reading the translation I could see why.
I applied what I gained from paltalk to care for my patient
but gradually found myself coming to the room to find
answers for myself.
I never really took the time to look at my life; I never knew
my father, my mother died when I was 3, me and my
brother were raised by our grandparents who died 4 years
ago, so now its just the two of us.
But despite all this loss, I always thought I was happy,
content.
It was only after spending time with my patient that felt
like I was missing something. I was missing that sense of
peace and tranquility my patient, even through suffering
felt.
I wanted that sense of belonging and a part of something
that he felt, even with no one around him.
I was given a list of mosques in my area by a lady on
paltalk and went down to visit one. I watched the prayer
and could not hold back my tears.
I felt drawn to the mosque every day and the imam and his
wife would give me books and tapes and welcome any
questions I had.
Every question I asked at the mosque and on paltalk was
answered with such clarity and depth that could do nothing
but accept them.
I have never practiced a faith but always believed that there
was a God; I just did not know how to worship Him.
One evening I came on paltalk and one of the speakers on
the mic addressed me. He asked me if I have any
questions, I said no. He asked if I was happy with the
answers I was given, I said yes.
He asked then what was stopping me accepting Islam, I
could not answer.
I went to the mosque to watch the dawn prayer. The imam
asked me the same question, I could not answer.
I then went to tend to my patient, I was feeding him and
as I looked in his eyes I just realized, he was brought to
me for a reason and the only thing stopping me from
accepting was fear…. not fear in the sense of something
bad, but fear of accepting something good, and thinking
that I was not worthy like this man.
That afternoon I went to the mosque and asked the imam
if I could say my declaration of faith, the Shahadah.: lā
ilāha illà al-Lāh, Muhammadun rasūlu Al-Lāh. There is no
god except Allah, Muhammad is Allah’s messenger.
He helped me through it and guided me through what I
would need to do next.
I cannot explain the feeling I felt when I said it.
It was like someone woke me up from sleep and sees
everything more clearly.
The feeling was overwhelming joy, clarity and most of all….
peace.
The first person I told was not my brother but my patient.
I went to him, and before I even opened my mouth he
cried and smiled at me.
I broke down in front of him, I owed him so much.
I came home logged on to paltalk and repeated the
shahadah for the room.
They all helped me so much and even though I had never
seen a single one of them, they felt closer to me than my
own brother.
I did eventually call my brother to tell him and although he
wasn’t happy, he supported me and said he would be
there, I couldn’t ask for any more.
After my first week as a Muslim my patient passed away in
his sleep while I was caring for him. Inna lillahi wa inna
ilayhi rajioon.
He died a peaceful death and I was the only person with
him.
He was like the father I never had and he was my doorway
to Islam.
From the day of my Shahadah to this very day and for
every day for as long as I live, I will pray that Allah shows
mercy on him and grant him every good deed I perform in
the tenfold.
I loved him for the sake of Allah and I pray each night to
become an atoms weight of the Muslim he was.
Islam is a religion with an open door; it is there for those
who want to enter it…. Verily Allah is the Most Merciful,
Most Kind.
* Note * Our sister Cassie passed away October 2010 Inna
lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon, after she gave da’wa to her
brother, who had accepted Islam Alhamdulillah.

UK Mosques Urged To Install Panic Alarms And Saferooms

An American Islamic group has been advising
British mosques on security measures, including
the installation of safe rooms and panic alarms,
warning that they are at greater risk than in any
other western country.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)
has discussed its revamped security regulations
with the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) in light of
the murder of Drummer Lee Rigby, 25, in Woolwich,
south-east London, which it said had even provoked
attacks in the United States.

The security improvements encouraged by CAIR,
America’s largest Muslim advocacy group,
encourage the building of transparent fences
around mosques, wire screens on windows,
designated security officials, three-inch-thick doors,
panic alarms and safe rooms.

Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for CAIR, said: “From
the outside it definitely seems UK mosques are
more at risk than anywhere, including the States.
There have been a number of recent incidents
targeting UK mosques, groups like the English
Defence League marching on mosques and a spike
in violent right-wing groups.”

Ibrahim Mogra, assistant secretary general of the
MCB, said: while a panic alarm that could instantly alert police might in certain areas be installed, it was vital mosques did not become too security conscious. “We don’t want mosques going overboard, where it’s almost like a fortified place.
We want these places to be open, and seen to be
welcoming places that people would not hesitate to
visit. Clearly our American friends have shown
concern for us and have shared their safety and
security measures. Although not all are relevant, we
can learn from each other’s experiences. The
common foe is a criminal we wish to keep out.”

According to Tell Mama, the government-funded
monitoring project that records anti-Muslim
attacks, about 12 mosques have been targeted
since Woolwich, including one in Grimsby where
three petrol bombs were thrown. Counter-terrorism
police are investigating whether an arson attack on
a Somali community centre in Muswell Hill, north
London, was in response to the killing of Rigby. The
letters EDL were found freshly painted on the
building’s walls, although the far-right group denies
any involvement. Tensions have also been inflamed
by Old Bailey hearings last week documenting a
planned terrorist attack on an EDL demonstration
that prosecutors say would have sparked a “tit-for-
tat spiral of violence and terror” across the country.

Fiyaz Mughal, director of the conflict resolution
charity Faith Matters, said too many mosques
remained vulnerable to attack in the aftermath of
Woolwich. Mughal said that, of the UK’s 1,500
mosques, 1,300 urgently needed to improve
security.

He added:”There are a significant number
of mosques that don’t have CCTV, that don’t do an
audit of their lighting around their building. Many of
these mosques you can walk into without anybody
asking anything. The vast amount of mosques really
need to reconsider their safety measures. I would
classify them as vulnerable, given the changing
climate since 7/7. But Woolwich is a huge turning
point and if the mosques don’t realise that, they
really need to wake up to it.”

Hooper said his group had recently contacted the
FBI after a mosque in Georgia was vandalised with
apparent reference to the murder of Rigby. The
sign for the Islamic Centre of North Fulton was
spray-painted with the phrase “London Justice”.Source

Jesus (Isa) A.S. in Islam, and his Second Coming

Note: Jesus = Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)

Jesus (Isa) A.S. in Islam, and his Second Coming
by Mufti A.H. Elias 

I. Jesus (A.S.) In Islam

Muslims do believe that Isa (A.S.) was sent down as a Prophet of Allah (God), but he (Jesus) is not God or Lord, nor the son of God. Muslims do not believe that Isa (A.S.), also known as Jesus by Christians and others, is dead or was ever crucified. We believe that he was raised to heaven and is there, and will descend at the appointed time, end all wars, and bring peace to the world.  Like Jesus (A.S.), Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is also a Prophet and Messenger. Muhammed (P.B.U.H.) is the last Prophet, though, and there is none after him.  Hence, Islam is the last religion, complete,  with the Holy Qur’an as the unchanged and perfect word of God for over 1400 years, as God promised to preserve it till the last day for all of humankind, unlike sacred texts of other religions which have mulitple versions and are “revised” periodically.  God, or Allah in Arabic, is Divine and Supreme Being and Creator.

What the Holy Qur’an says about Jesus:

  They slew him not, nor did they crucify him but it was made dubious to them.
(Holy Qur’an, Surah Nisaa, Verse 157)

Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) himself told of the coming of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). In the Bible, Jesus (A.S.) says,

  If you love me, Keep my commandments. And I will pray to the Father and He shall give you another comforter that he may abide with you forever.
(Bible, John 14-15/16)
 

But when the comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the spirit of Truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me, and he also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
(Bible, John 15-26/27)
 

I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now. How be it when he, the spirit of Truth will come, he will guide you into all truth, for he shall speak not of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear, that he shall speak, and he will show you things to come. He shall glorify me, for he shall receive of mine, and he shall show it unto you.
(Bible, John 16-12/14)

Ulema (learned scholars in Islam) have said that the person who is described by Hadhrat Isa/Jesus (A.S.) to come after him – in the above verse – does not comply with any other person but Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him).

In this case, the “comforter” he mentions is none other than Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and his laws and way of life (Shariah) and Book (Holy Qur’an) are those that Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) asks his followers to abide by.

 The “person” whom Jesus (A.S.) prophecised will come after him, is called Pargaleeta in the Bible . This word was deleted by interpreters and translators and changed at times to “Spirit of Truth” and at other times, to “comforter” and sometimes “Holy Spirit.” The original Greek and its meaning is “one whom people praise exceedingly.” The sense of the word, then, is applicable to the word Muhammad in Arabic, since Muhammad means “the praised one.”

 Jesus (A.S.) also says in the Bible,

  … and a little while and you shall not see me; and again a little while, you shall see me because I go to the Father.
(Bible, John 16:16)

… and the Holy Qur’an says,

  And surely they slew him not. But Allah (God) raised him unto Himself.
(Holy Qur’an, Surah Nisaa, Verse 157-158)

As such, Muslims believe that Hadhrat Isa/Jesus (A.S.) was raised to heaven. According to Hadith, he is on the second heaven. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam=Peace be upon him) mentioned, “During the Meraj (Ascension), I met Hadhrat Isa/Jesus (A.S.) on the second heaven. I found him of medium stature, reddish white. His body was so clean and clear, that it appeared as though he had just performed ghusal (ablution, cleansing of the entire body) and come.” In another Hadith, Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) mentioned to the Jews that, ” Hadhrat Isa/Jesus (A.S.) is not dead, he will most surely return to you before Qiyamat (the Day of Judgement).”

May Allah Guide all people to the Truth. Aameen.

 His Descension

He will descend on a Jamaat (group) that will be righteous at the time and comprising of 800 men and 400 women. The people will be preparing for war at the time against Dajjal (the anti-Christ). It will be time for Fajr prayers, and Imam Mahdi will be the Amir (leader). From the darkness of the dawn, a sound will suddenly be heard that “one who listens to your pleas has come” — the righteous people will look everywhere and their eyes will fall on Isa (A.S.). Briefly, at the time of Fajr, Isa/Jesus (A.S.) will descend. When descending, Isa/Jesus (A.S.)’s hands will be on the shoulders of two angels (according to another source (Kab Abrar), a cloud will carry him). On their insistence Hadhrat Isa/Jesus will introduce himself. He will inquire about their enthusiasm and thoughts on Jihad against Dajjal. Hadhrat Isa/Jesus (A.S.) will descend on the eastern side near the Minaret in Damascus (or in Baitul-Muqaddus by Imam Mahdi). At the time Imam Mahdi will have proceeded forward to lead the Fajr Salaat. The Iqamat of the Salaat would have been said (already recited) and Imam Mahdi will call Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) for Imamat (to lead the prayer), but he (Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)) will instead tell Imam Mahdi to lead the prayer since the Iqamat of that Salaat has already been said for him. Thus Imam Mahdi will lead the prayer, and Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will follow him. After the ruku, he will make this statement: “Allah has killed Dajjal and the Muslims have appeared.”

 The Killing of Dajjal (anti-Christ) and the Victory of the Muslims

 After the completion of Fajr Salaat (congregational dawn prayers), Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will open the door behind him where Dajjal accompanied by 70,000 Yahudis (Jews) will be. He will indicate with his hand to move away between him (Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)) and Dajjal. Dajjal will then see Hadhrat Isa (A.S.). At that time every Kafir on whom the breath of Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will reach, will die. His breath will reach up to the distance of his eyesight. The Muslims will then come down from the mountains and break loose on the army of Dajjal. There will be war, Dajjal will retreat, and Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will pursue Dajjal. Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will have two flexible swords and one shield with him and with these he will kill Dajjal at the Gate of Hudd. He willl show the Muslims the blood of Dajjal which will get on his shield. Eventually the Yahudis will be selected and killed. The swine will be killed and the cross broken. People will revert to Islam. Wars will end, and people will return to their respective countries. One Jamaat (group) of Muslims will remain in his service and companionship.

 Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will go to Fajr Rawha and perform Haj or Umrah (or both) from there. He will also go to the grave of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and present his greetings and Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) will reply. People will live comfortable lives. The wall of Yajooj and Majooj (Gog and Magog) will then break.

26 The camels will graze among lions, cheetahs with cattle and the jackals with goats.
27 The fertility of the land will increase to such an extent that even if a seed is planted in a hard rock, it will sprout.
28 A pomegranate will be so huge that a jamaat will be able to eat it and the people will use its peel as shade.
29 There will be so much barakaat (blessing) in milk that a camel will suffice for a huge jamaat, a cow for a tribe and a goat for a family.
30 In short, life will be most pleasant after the descension of Jesus (A.S.).

His Marriage, Death and Deputies

After his descension on earth, Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will marry. He will have children, and he will remain on earth 19 years after marriage. He will pass away and Muslims will perform his Janaza Salaat and bury him next to Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). (Tirmidhi)
