                       what he saw? He saw him again another time by the Lote-tree

                       of the Final Limit, beside which is the Garden of Refuge,
                       when that which covered the Lote-tree covered it. His eye did
                       not waver nor did he look away. He saw some of the greatest
                       signs of his Lord. (Surat adh-Dhariyat:5-18)
                       When the angels return to His Presence, this does not
                  mean that they cease to exist, in the terms that apply in this
                  world. They merely move to another dimension and con-
                  tinue living beyond our understanding. Similarly, the fact
                  that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) was raised to Allah's Presence
                  does not mean that he has died. Many verses and hadith
                  confirm the truth of this interpretation. The Prophet Jesus
                  (pbuh) is alive in a dimension that surpasses our under-
                  standing. Moreover, the fact that angels cross between two
                  dimensions, as Allah wills, shows that this transition is very

                  easy when our Lord so wills. When the time set forth by
                  Allah comes, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will return to Earth
                  and call people to religious moral values as the messenger
                  of Allah.
                       All of this evidence indicates that those people who
                  deny that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is still alive and will re-
                  turn fail to appreciate Allah's power and might. Given that
                  Allah, the All-Mighty and All-Powerful, is sovereign over
                  all things, He creates as He wills and has infinite knowl-
                  edge, whereas all human knowledge is limited to that
                  which Allah permits humanity to have. A human being can
                  only comprehend an event, how it takes place and the wis-
