Q 3:
Is it true that `Isa (Jesus, peace be upon him) is still alive in the third heaven? Was he not crucified?
Will he return to earth once again? Will he return as a prophet or as an ordinary person?
A:
`Isa (peace be upon him) was neither crucified nor killed, as Allah says,
...but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but it appeared so to them [the resemblance of ‘Isâ (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man)]
(Surah Al-Nisa', 4: 157). He was raised alive to heaven, body and soul, as Allah says,
But Allâh raised him [‘Isâ (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he عليه السلام is in the heavens).
(Surah Al-Nisa', 4: 158). He is going to descend at the end of time as a just ruler to break the crucifix, kill the pig, and rule according to the Shari`ah of Muhammad (peace be upon him). (Part No. 3; Page No. 348)
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
