A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE CONCEPT OF CHRIST'S DESCENT IN SEMITIC RELIGIONS

Abstract

In the light of the Qur'an, Sunnah, and the consensus of the Ummah, Muslims believe that Messiah (peace be upon him) was raised to heaven alive. He will descend to earth again near the Day of Judgment. He will establish justice, and promote and spread the religion of Muhammad (peace be upon him). The greatest temptation near the Day of Judgment, the temptation of Dajjal, will be ended up at his hands. Even in Christianity, the concept of the descent of Jesus (peace be upon him) exists because it has been mentioned repeatedly in the Bible. However, there are differences between Islam and Christianity regarding the resurrection of Jesus. Christians believe that he has been killed by hands of The Jews on cross. And that he has been resurrected and raised to heaven. While the clear evidence in the Qur'an and the Sunnah is that the Jews had not succeeded in their evil purpose. Therefore, the Jews consider Dajjal to be their Messiah who will end up the troubles and will fight for the exaltation of Judaism. And that with him all the Jews, living or dead, will gather in Jerusalem and join his army and fight against all religions except the Jews.
