Signs of Jesus’ (pbuh)
Second Coming

He [God] is the Knower of the Unseen, and does not divulge His
Unseen to anyone – except a Messenger with whom He is well
pleased, and then He posts sentinels before him and behind him.
(Surat al-Jinn , 72:26-27)

The Prophet (may God bless him and grant him peace) reveals in
his hadiths that religious morality will dominate the world; that
peace, justice, and prosperity will prevail; and that this will be
achieved by Jesus, who will unite the Christian and Islamic worlds. At
present, many societies are under the influence of anti-religious
