                    confident term, based on this information in the Qur'an,
                    and reminds us that, by Allah's leave, these phenomena

                    "will certainly come about" in the End Times.
                         The developments described in the hadith of our
                    Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) and in
                    these passages from Bediuzzaman have not so far taken
                    place. Indeed, Bediuzzaman says, "he will" and is thus re-
                    ferring to a future event, and not an event "that has taken or
                    is taking place."
                         The Prophet Jesus (pbuh) has not yet come to Earth for
                    a second time. The entire Muslim and Christian worlds are
                    awaiting the second coming of this blessed individual. His
                    alliance with Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) has not yet come about
                    either. Bediuzzaman recalls this fact in these passages, and
                    says that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and Hazrat Mahdi
                    (pbuh) will come "at a later time" than his own.
                         9. Indeed, it is not far from the wisdom of an All-Wise
                         One of glory who all the time sends the angels to the
                         Earth from the heavens, sometimes in human form (like
                         Gabriel (pbuh) appearing in the form of Dihya), and
                         sends spirit beings from the Spirit World making them
                         appear in human form, and even sends the spirits of most
                         of the dead saints to the world with similitudes of their
                         bodies, to clothe Jesus (pbuh) in his body and send him
                         to the world, so to bring the religion of Jesus (pbuh) to a
                         good conclusion, for such a momentous result, -even if
                         he was not alive and present with his body in the heav-
                         enly world, and had truly died and departed for the fur-
