                         By the One in Whose hand is my self, definitely the son of
                         Maryam will soon descend among you as a just judge. He
                         will break the cross [annul the worship of the cross], kill
                         the pig [inform that eating pork is forbidden], and abolish
                         the jizya [a head tax on free non-Muslims living under
                         Muslim rule]. 86



                               Claim 6 and Its Refutation
                         Another claim is that "The return of Jesus (pbuh)
                    would eliminate the element of testing." According to this
                    totally groundless claim, those who witness the rising of
                    someone who died thousands of years ago and who have
                    doubts about the resurrection will come to have faith.
                    Therefore, there will no longer be any need for testing peo-
                    ple.
                         This interpretation also lacks any logical foundation.

                    First, as stated before, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) did not die
                    but is still alive in Allah's Presence. Moreover, not everyone
                    will immediately accept this event, as the people in ques-
                    tion maintain. At first, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will be met
                    with skepticism, especially from those who do not live by
                    true religious moral values or those who have weak faith.
                    After the second coming, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will
                    wage a great intellectual struggle against all atheistic sys-
                    tems and ideologies, and return the religion to its pure form
                    by eliminating all of its corrupted elements and beliefs. At
                    the end of this struggle, the true religious moral values will
