Page "Second Coming" Paragraph 26

According to Islamic tradition, Isa's descent will be in the midst of wars fought by the Mahdi ( lit.

" the rightly guided one "), known in Islamic eschatology as the redeemer of Islam, against the al-Masīh ad-Dajjāl (" false messiah ") and his followers.

Isa will descend at the point of a white arcade, east of Damascus, dressed in yellow robes — his head anointed.

He will then join the Mahdi in his war against the Dajjal.

Isa, considered in Islam as a Muslim ( one who submits to God ) and one of God's messengers, will abide by the Islamic teachings.

Eventually, Isa will slay the Dajjal, and then everyone from the People of the Book ( ahl al-kitāb, referring to Jews and Christians ) will believe in him.

Thus, there will be one community, that of Islam.
