In this extract Bediuzzaman refers to a hadith that
notes that only the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will be able to neu-
tralize the fitnah of the antichrist.
He says that the people who will eliminate the denial-
based order of the antichrist and his aggressive regime and
mission, described as "spreading irreligion and harming sa-
cred matters," will be the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and the sin-
cere Christians who follow him. With his second coming,
the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will eliminate and neutralize this
irreligious mission of the antichrist:

Here Bediuzzaman is saying, in the light of the hadith
of our Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace),

tralize the antichrist and free the world from his fitnah.
The use by Bediuzzaman here of the word "him"
means that the antichrist is "an individual." In
Bediuzzaman's view, it is "the invidual Jesus (pbuh)" who
will put an end to that individual's efforts to spread denial.
