حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ “ لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَنْزِلَ فِيكُمُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ حَكَمًا مُقْسِطًا، فَيَكْسِرَ الصَّلِيبَ، وَيَقْتُلَ الْخِنْزِيرَ، وَيَضَعَ الْجِزْيَةَ، وَيَفِيضَ الْمَالُ حَتَّى لاَ يَقْبَلَهُ أَحَدٌ ”.
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “The Hour will not be established until the son of Mary descends amongst you as a just ruler, he will break the cross, kill the pigs, and abolish the Jizya tax. Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it (Sahih Bukhari, Volume 3, Book 43, Hadith #656)
In this hadith the Latter day messiah is given some tasks which he was suppose to fulfill and it is clear that Ahmad(as) fulfilled each of these tasks. One has to remember that such things are not literal which will be explained as each sign is proven.
The first sign is that he would be a just ruler. What does this mean? This simply means that this reformer would be a judge between the Muslims and also the non Muslims. He would make the matters between religions clear and explain every confusion to all of the religions. The main purpose he will come to judge for is the amount of Muslim sects that existed during his time. There were so many divisions in Islam and were causing a lot of confusion which is why the Messiah(as) came and formed the true jamaah which was Prophesied by the Holy Prophet Muhammad(saw).
This also tells us that it would not be the same Isa(as) of Bani Israel as he would not be able to judge between the Muslims since he would not even have the knowledge of the Qur’an. Some may say that he would learn from the scholars but this is totally false. How can they claim that a prophet of Allah would come and learn the Qur’an from normal human beings? Further more who would he learn from?If he was to learn from the Salafis, the Deobandis would reject him. If he learned from the Deobandis the Barelwis would declare him as a kaffir. These are questions which one needs to really think about if they really believe it is the same messiah who Qur’an has clearly said has died.
