followers to recognize a collective personality."
However, Bediuzzaman does say that the followers of

the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) possessed of profound faith and
close to him will recognize him through the light of that
faith. Bediuzzaman is of course well aware of this as he im-
parts this information. Bediuzzaman issues these state-
ments in a highly conscious manner and thus proves that
the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is "an individual" who will be rec-
ognized by believers.

Not everyone will recognize him:

By saying "not everyone will recognize him"
Bediuzzaman is making it clear that in the early days of his
coming not everyone will know who he is, in other words,
that society as a whole will not recognize him.
Bediuzzaman uses these words to once again draw our at-
tention to the property of the verb "recognize" which is de-

scribed above and unique to human beings. If Bediuzzaman
thought that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) was a collective per-
sonality he would not have made such a statement or have
referred to the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) being recognized. But
by using the word "him" Bediuzzaman is stating that the
Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is "a person" and explains who will
not be able to recognize him, thus once again emphasizing
the matter.
