200 The Glad Tidings of the Messiah (pbuh)
"... A zealous and self-sacrificing community known as a Christian
community but worthy of being called 'Muslim Christians', will work to
unite the true religion of the Prophet Jesus ((pbuh)) with the reality of
Islam…": Bediuzzaman calls the devoted Christians who will work
tirelessly with the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) to unify the Christian and
Islamic faiths after Christianity has been purified, Muslim
Christians. This "Muslim Christian" community will destroy the ir-
religious ideological systems represented in the being of dajjal.
Another explanation by Bediuzzaman on the subject reads:
"He [the antichrist] will be so powerful and long-lived that only
Jesus (pbuh) will be able to kill him [make him ineffective]; nothing
else will be able to." That is, it will only be a revealed, elevated, pure
religion that will be able to overturn his way and rapacious regime,
and eliminate them. Such a religion will emerge among the true fol-
lowers of Jesus (pbuh), and it will follow the Qur'an and become
united with it. On the coming of Jesus (pbuh) and emergence of the
true Christian religion, the antichrist's irreligious way will be
wiped out and will cease. The antichrist's person could otherwise be
killed by a mere germ or by influenza. (Rays, "Fifth Ray")
Bediuzzaman draws the attention to the hadith that indicates
that only the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will be able to destroy the dajjal
and his established and aggressive regime, and abolish his irreli-
gious way. He will be accompanied by the genuine Christians who
have freed themselves of myths and have surrendered to the
Qur'an. With the Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) second coming, the dajjal's
irreligious way will perish.
"Antichrist's irreligious way will be wiped out and will cease. The
antichrist's person could otherwise be killed by a mere germ or by in-
fluenza": Bediuzzaman touches here on a very important subject.
What matters is not to incapacitate those people one by one who
