Page 37 - The Signs of Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) Second Coming
P. 37

God’s Promise:
                                  Prophet Jesus (pbuh) Will Return







              that everyone, including Prophet Jesus (pbuh), will return to Him.
              Here, the expression is understood to mean their death. This may also
              be a sign that Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will die at a time close to
              Doomsday, after his second coming.


                     "There is not one of the People of the Book

                   who will not believe in him before he dies..."
                  In the Qur'an, we read that:

                  There is not one of the People of the Book who will not believe in
                  him before he dies; and on the Day of Resurrection he [Jesus] will
                  be a witness against them. (Surat An-Nisa’, 4:159)
                  The phrase "there is not one of the People of the Book who will
              not believe in him before he dies" is very interesting. In Arabic, the
              sentence reads as follows: Wa-in min ahli al-kitaabi illaa la yu'minanna
              bihi qabla mawtihi.
                  Some scholars believe that the "him/it" in this verse refers to the
              Qur'an instead of Jesus, and so understand it to mean that the People
              of the Book will believe in the Qur'an before they die. However, it is



























                                              5
