the greatest miracle in the world history

So Christ ... will appear a second time ... to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. [Hebrews 9:28]

"Men of Galilee," they (the angels) said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven." [Acts 1:9,11]

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come. [Matthew 24:14]

Doomsday will not take place until Jesus son of Mary (pbuh) comes as a fair ruler and a just imam.
[Sunan Ibn Majah]

He (Jesus) is a Sign of the Hour. Have no doubt about it. But follow me. This is a straight path.
[QS az-Zukhruf:61]


Ibn Juzayy says that the first meaning of this verse is that Jesus is a sign or precondition of the Last Hour. We can confidently say that this verse indicates his return at the End Times, because he lived six centuries before the Qur'an's revelation. Therefore we cannot consider his first life as a sign of the Day of Judgment. The verse says that Jesus will return toward the end of time or, in other words, during the last period of time before the Day of Judgment. In that context, his return is a sign of the Hour's imminent arrival. [God knows best.]
By the expression "Have no doubt about it. But follow me," which continues the verse; the great scholars of Islam interpret this pronoun as referring to Jesus, an opinion that they base on other Qur'anic verses and hadiths. In his commentary, Elmalili Muhammad Hamdi Yazir writes that: "No doubt he [Jesus] is a sign of the Hour, one that declares that the Hour will come, that the dead will be resurrected and stand up, because the miracle of Jesus' second coming and his miracle of resurrecting the dead, together with his revelation that the dead will rise, prove that the Day of Judgment is real. According to the hadiths, his arrival is a sign of the Last Day."
