                    cles. When the time appointed by Allah comes, another

                    great miracle will take place: the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will
                    return to Earth. This fact has been imparted in verses and
                    hadith, and is a marvel that all believers need to ponder.


                       Other Indicative Accounts in the Qur'an
                         As stated at the beginning, one of the most serious er-
                    rors made by those who reject the Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) as-
                    cension is their failure to realize that Allah is not bound by

                    time and space. In fact, there are dimensions, all of which
                    He created, that are unknown and unperceived by human-
                    ity. This fact can help us understand the proofs presented
                    for this miraculous event. As stated in the Qur'an:
                         What are they waiting for, but for Allah to come to them in

                         the shadows of the clouds, together with the angels, in which
                         case the matter will have been settled? All matters return to
                         Allah. (Surat al-Baqara:210)
                         Allah reveals in another verse that all matters "ascend
                    to" Himself during "a day whose length is a thousand
                    years," according to the human comprehension of time:

                         He directs the whole affair from heaven to Earth. Then it
                         will again ascend to Him on a Day whose length is a thou-
                         sand years by the way you measure. (Surat as-Sajda:5)
                         The fact that "Allah directs the whole affair" is a proof

                    that He is unbound by space and time. Allah knows every-
                    thing that happens in the universe, down to the tiniest de-
