Thursday 21 August: Our dear friend and colleague, Dr. Grady Davis, went to his Reward on 26 May. Please visit his memorial page.
Monday 21 July: This weekend we migrated our site to a new server, more than tripling our storage and bandwidth allocation. This resulted in a number of pages losing their formats. We will get them reformatted as quickly as possible, but since there are nearly 2000 pages on the site, it will take a little while to complete the process. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Please Note WellIt is not our intent to belittle, unduly criticize, or “bash” anyone who may hold religious or political persuasions or opinions other than our own. Even though we may absolutely and totally disagree with your opinion, we will defend to the death your G-d-given right to hold it. Since this website was originally launched in 1995, we have continually held the position that We are not “anti-”anybody; we are only pro-Truth [click here for the definition of “Truth”].

We firmly believe that it can be proven with absolute certainty that the Bible, and the Bible only, is the revealed Word of G-d, and is the standard by which all knowledge and opinion must be judged. Information on this website that concerns non-Biblical religious beliefs is provided for the sole purpose of comparing those beliefs with the Revealed Truth of the Bible. We also attempt to demonstrate how far the Body of Messiah has drifted from its Jewish origins. We earnestly await the return of Messiah and the “Restoration of All Things” as promised by the prophets. If you disagree with our position, please click this link.

As the Olam Habah quickly approaches, each of us is faced with some very difficult choices. One of these choices is whether or not to defend ourselves from those who would force us to “submit” to the rule of Islam and Allah over every aspect of our daily lives. (The word “Islam” literally means "to submit" or "to surrender" [to Allah].) We have decided to stand with Joshua: “As for me and my household, we will serve ADONAI!” (Jos 24:15 (CJB) - Show Context)

Our political and religious leaders tell us daily that Islam is a “peaceful religion” and that the great majority of Muslims want only to live next to us in peace. However, it is expressly forbidden by the Qur'an for a Muslim to accept a non-Muslim as a friend (Sura 3:28), and whoever does so “shall have nothing of Allah” (i.e., cannot, by their own definition, be a true Muslim). If a person claims to be a Muslim, they must (by definition) believe the Qur'an; if they claim to believe the Qur'an, they must believe the whole Qur'an, which says: “Say to those who disbelieve [the Qur'an]: You shall be vanquished, and driven together to hell; and evil is the resting-place” (Sura 3:12). In Islamic eschatology (the teaching about the future) the ultimate goal of Islam is to convert or kill all Jews and Christians, and to have a one-world Islamic government and religion. Click here for more from the Qur'an.

Due to the numerous threats we have received from “peaceful” Muslims, we have been forced to remove our physical address from the website.

Jesus (Isa) A.S. in Islam, and his Second Coming
by Mufti A.H. Elias

Mirrored from http://www.islam.tc/prophecies/jesus.html

with explanatory notes by Dr. Ari Levitt

The person described on this page is most obviously neither the Yeshua of the Bible nor the Jesus of Christianity, and is but one of the many proofs that Allah, the false “god” of Islam, is obviously not the G-d of Avraham, Yitzhak, and Ya`akov. Out of respect to the G-d of the Bible, we have changed all references to Allah on this page from “God” to “god.” All text in this color type has been added or changed by Ari Levitt.

I. Jesus (A.S.) In Islam

Muslims do believe that Isa (A.S.) was sent down as a Prophet of Allah (god)[1], but he (Jesus) is not G-d or Lord, nor the son of G-d. Muslims do not believe that Isa (A.S.), also known as Jesus by Christians and others, is dead or was ever crucified. We believe that he was raised to heaven and is there, and will descend at the appointed time, end all wars, and bring peace to the world.  Like Jesus (A.S.), Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is also a Prophet and Messenger. Muhammed (P.B.U.H.) is the last Prophet, though, and there is none after him.  Hence, Islam is the last religion, complete,  with the Holy Qur'an as the unchanged and perfect word of G-d for over 1400 years, as G-d promised to preserve it till the last day for all of humankind, unlike sacred texts of other religions which have multiple versions and are "revised" periodically.[2] God, or Allah in Arabic, is Divine and Supreme Being and Creator.

What the Holy Qur'an says about Jesus:

  They slew him not, nor did they crucify him but it was made dubious to them.
(Holy Qur'an, Surah Nisaa, Verse 157)

Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) himself told of the coming of Prophet Muhammad[3] (Peace be upon him). In the Bible, Jesus (A.S.) says,

  If you love me, Keep my commandments. And I will pray to the Father
and He shall give you another comforter that he may abide with you forever.
(Bible, John 14-15/16)  

But when the comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father,
even the spirit of Truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify
of me, and he also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from
the beginning.
(Bible, John 15-26/27)  

I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now.
How be it when he, the spirit of Truth will come, he will guide you into all
truth, for he shall speak not of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear,
that he shall speak, and he will show you things to come. He shall glorify
me, for he shall receive of mine, and he shall show it unto you.
(Bible, John 16-12/14)

Ulema (learned scholars in Islam) have said that the person who is described by Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) to come after him - in the above verse - does not comply with any other person but Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him).

In this case, the "comforter" he mentions is none other than Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and his laws and way of life (Shariah) and Book (Holy Qur'an) are those that Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) asks his followers to abide by.

The "person" whom Jesus (A.S.) prophecised [sic.] will come after him, is called Pargaleeta[4] in the Bible. This word was deleted by interpreters and translators and changed at times to "Spirit of Truth" and at other times, to "comforter" and sometimes "Holy Spirit." The original Greek and its meaning is "one whom people praise exceedingly."[4] The sense of the word, then, is applicable to the word Muhammad in Arabic, since Muhammad means "the praised one."[5]

Jesus (A.S.) also says in the Bible,

  ... and a little while and you shall not see me;
and again a little while, you shall see me because
I go to the Father.
(Bible, John 16:16)

... and the Holy Qur'an says,

  And surely they slew him not. But Allah (god) raised him unto Himself.
(Holy Qur'an, Surah Nisaa, Verse 157-158)

As such, Muslims believe that Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) was raised to heaven. According to Hadith, he is on the second heaven. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam=Peace be upon him) mentioned, "During the Meraj (Ascension), I met Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) on the second heaven. I found him of medium stature, reddish white. His body was so clean and clear, that it appeared as though he had just performed ghusal (ablution, cleansing of the entire body) and come." In another Hadith, Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) mentioned to the Jews that, " Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) is not dead, he will most surely return to you before Qiyamat (the Day of Judgement)."

May Allah Guide all people to the Truth. Aameen.

II. Hadhrat Isa's (A.S.) Descension
The Physical Features of Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)

He will resemble the famous Sahabi (A.S.) Hadhrat Urwa bin Masoodi (R.A.). He will be of average height and red and white in colour. His hair spread to the shoulders, straight, neat and shining as after a bath. On bending his head, it will seem as if pearls are falling. He will have an armour on his body. He will be wearing two pieces of cloth light yellow in color.

His Descension  [sic.]

He will descend on a Jamaat (group) that will be righteous at the time and comprising of 800 men and 400 women. The people will be preparing for war at the time against Dajjal (the anti-Christ). It will be time for Fajr prayers, and Imam Mahdi will be the Amir (leader). From the darkness of the dawn, a sound will suddenly be heard that "one who listens to your pleas has come" — the righteous people will look everywhere and their eyes will fall on Isa (A.S.). Briefly, at the time of Fajr, Isa (A.S.) will descend. When descending, Isa (A.S.)'s hands will be on the shoulders of two angels (according to another source [Kab Abrar], a cloud will carry him). On their insistence Hadhrat Isa will introduce himself. He will inquire about their enthusiasm and thoughts on Jihad against Dajjal. Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will descend on the eastern side near the Minaret in Damascus (or in Baitul-Muqaddus by Imam Mahdi). At the time Imam Mahdi will have proceeded forward to lead the Fajr Salaat. The Iqamat of the Salaat would have been said (already recited) and Imam Mahdi will call Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) for Imamat (to lead the prayer), but he (Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)) will instead tell Imam Mahdi to lead the prayer since the Iqamat of that Salaat has already been said for him. Thus Imam Mahdi will lead the prayer, and Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will follow him. After the ruku, he will make this statement: "Allah has killed Dajjal and the Muslims have appeared."

The Killing of Dajjal (anti-Christ) and the Victory of the Muslims

After the completion of Fajr Salaat (congregational dawn prayers), Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will open the door behind him where Dajjal accompanied by 70,000 Yahudis (Jews) will be. He will indicate with his hand to move away between him (Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)) and Dajjal. Dajjal will then see Hadhrat Isa (A.S.). At that time every Kafir on whom the breath of Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will reach, will die. His breath will reach up to the distance of his eyesight. The Muslims will then come down from the mountains and break loose on the army of Dajjal. There will be war, Dajjal will retreat, and Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will pursue Dajjal. Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will have two flexible swords and one shield with him and with these he will kill Dajjal at the Gate of Hudd. He willl show the Muslims the blood of Dajjal which will get on his shield. Eventually the Yahudis [the Jews] will be selected and killed.[6] The swine [the Jews] will be killed and the cross [the Christians] broken. People will revert to Islam. Wars will end, and people will return to their respective countries. One Jamaat (group) of Muslims will remain in his service and companionship.

Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will go to Fajr Rawha and perform Haj or Umrah (or both) from there. He will also go to the grave of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and present his greetings and Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) will reply. People will live comfortable lives. The wall of Yajooj and Majooj (Gog and Magog) will then break.

III. The Blessings of Hadhrat Isa (Jesus) (A.S.)

1 Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will descend and stay on earth.

2 His descension [sic.] will be in the last era of the Ummat.

3 He will be a just ruler and a fair judge.

4 His ummat will be the Khalifa (deputies) of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam).

5 He will act himself and instruct others on the Qur'an and Hadith (Shariat/Tradition of Islam).

6 He will lead people in Salaat (Prayer).

7 He will stay on earth for a period of 40 years[7] after descending. The will be the best era of the Ummat after the first era of Islam.

8 Allah will protect his companions from Jahannam.

9 Those who will save the Deen of Islam by associating themselves with Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will be amongst the most loved by Allah Ta'ala.

10 During this period all other religions and mazhabs besides Islam will perish, hence there will be no kuffaars (non-believers) in the world.

11 Jihad will be stopped.

12 No Khiraaj will be taken.

13 Nor Jizya (protection tax) money from the kafirs (non-believers)

14 Wealth and property will be in surplus to such an extent that there will be no one to accept the wealth of the other (everyone will be independent).

15 Receiving Zakaat (Alms-giving, Charity to poor) and Saadaqa will be discarded (as there will be no poor to receive them!).

16 The people will love the sajda (prostration to [Allah]) more than the world and what it consists of.

17 All types of Deeni (religious) and worldly blessings will descend on earth (many halaal (lawful) things will be created).

18 There will be peace, harmony and tranquility during the time of Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)'s stay in the world.

19 There will be no animosity for a period of seven years, even between two persons.

20 All hearts will be free from miserliness, envy, hatred, malice and jealousy.

21 For a period of forty years no one will fall ill or die.

22 Venom will be taken out of all venomous animals.

23 Snakes and scorpions will not harm anyone to the extent that if a child put his hand in its mouth, he will not be harmed.

24 Will [sic.] animals will not harm anyone.

25 If a man will pass a lion, he will not be troubled or harmed, or even if any girl will open its mouth to test if it will do anything.

26 The camels will graze among lions, cheetahs with cattle and the jackals with goats.

27 The fertility of the land will increase to such an extent that even if a seed is planted in a hard rock, it will sprout.

28 A pomegranate will be so huge that a jamaat will be able to eat it and the people will use its peel as shade.

29 There will be so much barakaat (blessing) in milk that a camel will suffice for a huge jamaat, a cow for a tribe and a goat for a family.

30 In short, life will be most pleasant after the descension [sic.] of Jesus (A.S.) [and the elimination of all Jews and Christians].

His Marriage, Death and Deputies

After his descension [sic.] on earth, Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will marry. He will have children, and he will remain on earth 19 years after marriage. He will pass away[8] and Muslims will perform his Janaza Salaat and bury him next to Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). (Tirmidhi)

From: Hadhrat Esa (Alaihis Salaam): The Truth Revealed and Major Signs of Qiyamat by Mufti Afzal Hoosein Elias (May Allah reward him for his work in producing these kitaabs, aameen.) from the original (with references): "Aalalaat-e-Qiyyamat aur Nuzul-e-Eesa."   



Notes: [by Ari Levitt]

1. The name Allah is almost always either translated or explained as meaning “god”—do not be deceived. Allah is only one of thousands of jinni, or desert demons, that were worshipped by the sons of Ishmael before Mohammed rose to power. Allah is most definitely not the G-d of Avraham, Yitzchak, and Ya`akov (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob). Allah may well in fact be Satan himself. [Return]

2. Obviously, every time anything—either written or spoken—is translated into any other language, it becomes a different “version” or “revision.” It is therefore likewise patently obvious that, contrary to the author’s claim, the “Holy Qur’an” has multiple “versions” and is “revised” periodically. In fact, there are a number of different versions of the Qur’an available on the Internet. Search Google.com for Qur'an, Quran, and Koran. [Return]

3. The second chapter of the Book of Acts makes it unmistakably clear that the Comforter and Spirit of Truth of Whom Yeshua (Jesus) was speaking is Ruach HaKodesh (the Holy Spirit), not Mohammed. [Return]

4. The word to which the author is referring is paraklhtoß (Parakletos), not “Pargaleeta” — it was most certainly not “deleted by interpreters and translators” — the term appears five times in the Greek New Testament, and is in fact essential to our correct understanding of the Biblical doctrine of Ruach HaKodesh, the Holy Spirit. Parakletos cannot possibly be translated as “one whom people praise exceedingly.” It is formed from two Greek words para (beside) and kaleo (to call) and means literally “one who is called alongside another” — it was used in Greek jurisprudence to mean one's advocate or lawyer. Click here to read the lexicon. [Return]

5. This blatant fabrication [concerning the Greek word paraklhtoß] is typical of Islam. One can not read or listen to any discussion about Israel or Jerusalem without hearing the official Islamic position that, contrary to the testimony of both history and archaeology, Israel was never the Jewish homeland, Jerusalem was never the capital, and neither of the two Temples ever existed. Yeshua said: “You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn't stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of it” [the Lie Gen. 3:4-5]. (John 8:44 HNV) We believe this “personality trait” of Islam is evidence to help support the idea that Allah is actually Satan himself. [Return]

6. Thus we see that according to Islamic theology, Yeshua HaMashiach, Israel’s Messiah, the King of the Jews, will return in glory and great power to slay all the Jews! [Return]

7. The Bible teaches that Yeshua will reign on earth for 1,000 years, not 40 years. “Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be kohanim [priests] of G-d and of Messiah, and will reign with him one thousand years.” (Rev. 20:6 HNV) [Return]

8. Since Yeshua HaMashiach is HaShem, the King of kings and LORD of lords, he cannot die, but will rein over the new heaven and new earth forever. “He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of G-d and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. There will be no curse any more. The throne of G-d and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants serve him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. There will be no night, and they need no lamp light; for the Lord G-d will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever. (Rev 22:1-5) HNV [Return]
