                 That the Prophet Jesus (as) will come back to earth towards
             the end of time is related in another verse of the Qur'an.
                 When an example is made of the son of Maryam (Jesus)
                 your people laugh uproariously. They retort, "Who is
                 better then, our deities or him?" They only say this to
                 you for argument's sake. They are indeed a disputa-
                 tious people.

                 He is only a slave on whom We bestowed Our blessing
                 and whom We made an example for the tribe of Israel.

                 If We wished, We could appoint angels in exchange for
                 you to succeed you on the earth. (Surat az-Zukhruf: 57-60)
                 Just after these verses, Allah declares that the Prophet Jesus
             (as) is a sign of the Day of Judgement.
                  He is a Sign of the Hour. Have no doubt about it. But
                  follow me. This is a straight path. (Surat az-Zukhruf:
                  61)
                 This verse informs us that the Prophet Jesus (as) will come
             back to earth at the end times. That is because the Prophet Jesus
             (as) lived approximately six centuries before the revelation of the
             Qur'an. Consequently, we cannot interpret his first coming as a

             sign of the Day of Judgement. What this verse actually indicates
             is that the Prophet Jesus (as) will come back to earth towards the
             end of time and this will be a sign for the Day of Judgement.
                 The Arabic of the verse "He is a Sign of the Hour" is Innahu
             la 'ilmun li's-sa'ati… Some people interpret the pronoun hu in
             this verse as the Qur'an. However, the preceding verses explicit-
             ly indicate that the Prophet Jesus (as) is mentioned in the verse:
             "He is only a slave on whom We bestowed Our blessing and
