When The Messiah Returns

بِسْــــــــــــــــــمِ اﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ اارَّحِيم

Jabir ibn Abdullah reported: I heard the Prophet, peace be upon him, say, 

“There will not cease to be a group of my people fighting for the sake of the truth and prevailing until the Day of Resurrection.” 

Then he said, “Jesus the son of Mary, peace be upon him, will descend and the commander (of the Muslims) will invite him to lead the prayer but he would say: 

No, some of you are commanders over others. This is an honor for this nation.”

( Sahih Muslim )

جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ

 لَا تَزَالُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ ظَاهِرِينَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ

 قَالَ فَيَنْزِلُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَقُولُ أَمِيرُهُمْ تَعَالَ صَلِّ لَنَا فَيَقُولُ

 لَا إِنَّ بَعْضَكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ أُمَرَاءُ تَكْرِمَةَ اللَّهِ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةَ

When the Messiah returns, he will be asked to lead the prayer but will defer to the leader of the Muslims
