Signs of Jesus’ (pbuh)
Second Coming
wrongdoers in the throes of death when the angels are stretching
out their hands, saying: "Disgorge your own selves! Today you
will be repaid with the punishment of humiliation for saying
something other than the truth about God, and [for] being arro-
gant about His Signs." (Surat al-An`am, 6:93)
These people, who may have committed the sin described in the
verse, will surely receive their recompense for their lies.
The days when the lies of all false prophets will be eradicated are
close, for our Prophet (may God bless him and grant him peace) an-
nounced that, after the liars have gone, Prophet Jesus (pbuh) would
return.
True believers will recognize Prophet Jesus (pbuh) from the por-
tents. Each of his deeds will be wise and inimitable, and these por-
tents will set him apart from other people and make him immediate-
ly recognizable. No proof will be needed. The efforts of all false mes-
siahs to prove themselves is the clearest indication of their falsity.
Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) actions will prove his identity. He will de-
feat all atheistic movements and other systems that attempt to spread
the denial of God and immorality, use God's revelation to defeat with
great ease the snares of the deniers, spread the religion's moral values
among people, and negate the efforts of the ungodly. His miracles
will prove that God's religion is the true way and that believers will
inevitably prevail. In the Qur'an, our Lord gives these glad tidings to
believers:
They desire to extinguish God's Light with their mouths, but God
will perfect His Light, though the disbelievers hate it. It is He
Who sent His Messenger with guidance and the Religion of Truth
to exalt it over every other religion, though the associators hate it.
(Surat as-Saff, 61:8-9)
