he Prophet Muhammad (may Allah
                                          bless him and grant him peace) has re-
                                         vealed many important matters about
                                       the Prophet Jesus'(pbuh) return, as well
                                   as some of the things that will happen before
                      and after this event, in his hadiths. All of this information is
                      from the "Unseen," and was given to him by Allah, as related
                      in the following verse:
                          He [Allah] is the Knower of the Unseen, and does
                          not divulge His Unseen to anyone—except a
                          Messenger with whom He is well pleased, and then
                          He posts sentinels before him and behind him.
                          (Surat al-Jinn, 26-27)
                          Our Lord also reveals that He sent knowledge to the
                      Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him
                      peace) in his dreams:

                          Allah has confirmed His Messenger's vision with
                          truth: "You will enter the Sacred Mosque [Masjid al-
                          Haram] in safety, Allah willing, shaving your heads
                          and cutting your hair without any fear." He knew
                          what you did not know and ordained, in place of
                          this, an imminent victory. (Surat al-Fath, 27)
                          Allah gives such knowledge to our Prophet (may Allah
                      bless him and grant him peace) in order to help and support
                      both him as well as all of the faithful believers who were
                      with him.
