172 The Glad Tidings of the Messiah (pbuh)
congregation in the morning, the Prophet Jesus, son of Mary,
(pbuh) would descend upon them in the morning. Upon this, that
Imam would retreat walking backward, so that the Prophet Jesus
(pbuh)should come forward to lead people in prayer in congrega-
tion. But he would place his hand in between his shoulders and say:
"Come forward and lead the prayer, for it has been established for
you." (Sunan Ibn Majah)
When the dajjal faces him [Jesus], he [the dajjal] will begin to dis-
solve like salt in water. He [Jesus] will say to him: "I have to step in;
you cannot escape." So Jesus (pbuh) will kill him [make him ineffec-
tivewith his spear at the gate of Ludd. (Sunan Ibn Majah)
Then the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will come to a people whom Allah
would protect from dajjal (antichrist). He would then wipe [the
traces of hardship from] their faces and tell them their ranks in
Paradise. (Sunan Ibn Majah)
The World Will Be at Peace
The Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will be a just judge and a just ruler in my
ummah (people) . . . He will abandon the collection of zakat;grudge
and mutual hatred will be lifted (removed), the sting of every sting-
ing insect will be removed until a baby will insert his finger in
snake's mouth and it will not harm him, and the wolf will be like the
dog among the sheep (safeguarding them). Earth will be filled with
peace, just as a vessel is filled with water; the word (kalima) will be-
come one (i.e., only Islam will prevail) and only Allah will be wor-
shipped; the battle will put down its weapons (i.e., come to an end)
and the dominion of the Qurayshis will be broken. (Sunan Ibn
Majah)
