Isa Kills Dajjal the Antichrist
In the first article of this series entitled, “The Battle of Isa and Dajjal,” we discussed the deceiving prophet Dajjal who is also referred to in the Hadith as the antichrist.(1) That he will appear on earth and claim to be God! Many people will follow him and accept his false testimony. But in the end, he will be slain by Isa. According to the Sunni Hadith,(2) “The spear of Isa shall plunge into Dajjal’s chest, ending his dreaded reign… all those who embraced the evil of Dajjal shall perish even as the Breath of Isa touches them.”
This is what the Bible teaches about the wrath of Isa: “Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. He will rule them with an iron scepter. He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS” (Revelation 19:15, 16). What a glorious victory this will be!
Everyone Who Rejects Isa and Follows Dajjal Will Die
There will be no escape for anyone who accepted the lies of the antichrist and followed him. The Hadith says, “The followers of Dajjal will be rooted out, for even the trees and rocks will speak out against them.” They will all be hunted-down and killed. The Injil tells us that, “The rest of them were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse (Isa)…” (Revelation 19:21).
Isa Will Destroy Every Enemy of God Including Death Itself
For those who believe in the testimony of Isa and have believed in his sacrifice upon the cross, this will be a joyous and wonderful day! The Hadith says that after the followers of the antichrist (Dajjal) have been destroyed, Isa will “Break the cross and kill the pig.”
This statement should not be misunderstood. It is explained in the Injil. “Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him” (Hebrews 9:27, 28). Isa died once upon the cross to take away the sins of those who believe in Him. When he returns the second time, it will not be to die again, but to bring salvation and victory to those who believed. The power of death will have been destroyed. The cross will no longer be relevant. The instrument which brought death will be broken forever. It will be a new age of life and glory.
Who Will Be Saved From the Wrath of God?
So, who will be saved from the wrath of God? Who on the earth will Isa spare? Only those who have the testimony of Isa will be saved. And all those who had been killed for their testimony of Isa will be raised to life and reign with Him for a thousand years! It is written in the Injil, “…And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God…They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years” (Revelation 20:4). And what is the testimony of Isa? It is this: “If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9).
Only By the Blood of Isa Will Anyone Be Saved
And as far as the second part of the statement concerning the “killing of the pig”, the pig represents everything that is unclean before God. Then what is clean before God? Whatever is washed in the blood of Isa is clean before God. And Isa testified to this himself when he said, “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins” (Matthew 26:28).

Will Muslims go to Heaven?
~
Dear Jackson,
~
You asked an excellent question! The only people who will be going to heaven are those who are righteous before God. And as human beings, we know that we all sin and we are all unrighteous. Our thoughts and actions convict us every day. Whether you claim to be Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, etc., if you are not righteous before God you will not go to heaven.
~
So how do you become righteous before God? We have to admit that we are sinners, turn away from our sinful nature, and accept God’s sacrifice for our sins. Because God loves His creation, He provided a sacrifice for us in order to make us righteous in His eyes. And that sacrifice was Isa (Jesus).
~
Isa was the perfect man and the perfect servant of God who gave Himself as a sacrifice for all mankind. This was God’s will for Him. And God’s will for us to believe and accept Isa’s sacrifice. Isa said, [b]”I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me”[/b] (Injil John 14:6). And again Isa said, [b]”For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life…”[/b] (Injil John 6:40)
*
That is exactly why I asked, because it is hard to find a Muslim to acknowledge that Jesus is the way and the truth, and believing in Him one shall go to heaven. And also that He died for their sins.
~
Is it a different religion accepted by God because they are descendants of Abraham and the Lord was there for Ishmael and the mother? How can they get away with not fully acknowledging that Jesus is the way?
~
Dear Jackson,
~
Thank you again for your thoughtful questions. Let’s first address the question of Islam being accepted by God because of Ishmael. God does not regard or accept any “religion”. What God wants is a personal relationship with each individual. But since we are sinful creatures, we are unable to have that relationship with God because He is holy and righteous.
~
First we must be made acceptable before God. We must be cleansed from all unrighteousness. And we can’t cleanse ourselves no matter how hard we try, because we can’t forgive sin– only God can!
~
Good works can never, ever remove our sins. Living clean and chaste lives will never remove our sins. Only God can remove our sins and make us acceptable to Him. So God sent His Son, Isa, to be a sacrifice for the sins of the world. Isa is our atoning sacrifice for our sins. It is written, [b]“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” [/b] (1 John 1:9). Isa died and rose again, so that we may have life in Him with God. This is salvation.
*
Most people confess their sins in their respective ways of practicing their faith, and as a result expect forgiveness because they believe there is one God.
~
For example, in Islam they strongly advocate that there is one God. How do you convince such a person who is repentant and cries to the lord through fasting, praying so many times a day that it’s only through Isa that sins are forgiven?
~
Dear Jackson
~
If there is forgiveness by prayer, fasting and tears, why does the Quran say the on the Day of Judgment the good deeds and evil deeds will be placed on a scale. There should be no evil deeds to weigh if God has forgiven them. So either a Muslim’s evil deeds are not forgiven through fasting and prayer and will be weighed on the scales at judgment. Or their sins are forgiven through fasting and prayer and there is nothing to weigh in which case the Quran is wrong.
~
Believing there is one God is good. There is only one God. And that one true God gave man the way of forgiveness and salvation. The one true God sent Isa Al-Masih to take upon himself the sins of the world. And believing in Him, we may know salvation and forgiveness and life.
~
If Muslims will look within their own Quran they will discover that Isa was not just another man or prophet. He was divinely different. He was born of a virgin, healed the blind, deaf and dumb and even raised people from the dead. The Quran says He is a word and spirit from Allah. If they would recognize through the Quran how different Isa was from every person who ever lived, they would seek to know more about him and his purpose from God. Isa said, [b]“I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except by me”[/b] (Injil John 14:6).
`
The writer seems to be a Christian. He or She knows little about his or her scripture let alone Islamic hadith. Isa was never killed nor did He die on the cross. This was conjectured by Paul who never knew Isa. Deuteronomy 21:23, Mark 14:50, Mathew 26:36-39, John 12:27-28, Mark 14:50, 1 Corinthian 15:3,14,34,35, 42-44.
~
Dear Kamar,
~
You must believe that Isa died for your sins before you can be saved. Isa Himself predicted His death in Mark 8:31 [u]“He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again.”[/u] He also proclaimed that He did die and was resurrected in Revelation 1:18 [u]“I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive forever and ever![/u] And I hold the keys of death and Hades.” Please read the Gospel of Jesus Christ and fall upon His love and Mercy and be saved!
`
I fail to understand: how can you say Jesus died for the sins of others? Suppose some one kills someone and confesses the sin to judge Jesus. Will Jesus who died for my sins tell me I am forgiven? I think logically, Islam is the right and true religion.
`
Dear Mansoor,
~
Logically, you proved that we all need Lord Jesus. Since there is not a person in the world who does not sin, how can we escape the punishment of hell? We must be forgiven or we will be condemned on the day of judgment. Yes, Jesus will forgive us.[u] “If we confess our sins, he (Jesus) is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” 1 John 1:9. [/u] That is the comfort and joy of all those who believe that Jesus died for our sins and by His blood He will forgive our sins. Jesus said, [u]”I am the way the truth and the light. No one comes to the Father except through me” Ingil, John 14:6.[/u]

Anyone who rejects Islam is a follower of the anti-Christ. Jesus Christ did not practice Christianity. He is not the founder of Christianity. He is a pure Muslim.
~
Tonny,
The Injil teaches that those who follow anyone but Isa Al-Masih are followers of the anti-Christ. Isa Al-Masih did not bring a new religion, but came to earth to bring people into a right relationship with God. https://www.isaandislam.com/Isa-Al-Masih/did-isa-al-masih-bring-a-new-religion.html
`
Qs 109 – [b]”O Al-Kafirun! ‘I worship not that which you worship, Nor will you worship that which I worship. And I shall not worship that which you are worshiping. Nor will you worship that which I worship. To you be your religion, and to me my religion.'”[/b]
Qs 112 – [b]”He is Allah, (the) One. Allah-us-Samad He begets not, nor was He begotten; And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him.'”[/b]
`
Syed Hussin,
I’m not quite sure exactly what you mean by these verses. However, we do agree that God is the creator, God exists, and God provides everything for humans. God is also in control of everything on heaven and earth.
However, in addition to that, the Quran also describes Isa Al-Masih. As observed through the Quran one should see Him as more than a prophet. He is God’s messenger who comes from above and was born of the virgin Maryam. He is from God’s Word through God’s Spirit. He did miracles while he was on earth. He will also return to earth at the end of time to deliver His followers. He’ll also judge people according to what they have done. The Injil calls Him God and the son of God.
Everyone has sinned, not even one single person doesn’t sin (Romans 3:23). So God sent Isa Al-Masih as a perfect, living sacrifice. Through His blood, one is saved if he repents and believes in Isa Al-Masih as the ultimate sacrifice for his sins. He is the way to God the Father. Thank you.
`
Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God. If He was the Son of God, how can He die? God can’t die.
For the sake of conversation, if He was God, and the Bible is His book then why does one Bible say one thing about Jesus, and another Bible say something else?
~
Muhammad,
You are right, we do believe that Jesus is the Son of God. This article explains how Jesus could die while God the Father could stay alive: https://www.isaandislam.com/christian-beliefs/how-can-god-die.html
You also mentioned that different translations of the Bible say different things about Jesus. Can you give me an example of one?

Hello sir,
You need to refresh your memory on what Jesus (May ALLAH be pleased with him) said in the Injil, [b]”I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel”[/b] (Matthew 10:6). This was at a time He had met two of the twelve tribes of Israel during His ministry. The lost ten were taken into captivity in the East. Isa needed to visit them and accomplish His mission with these people. He did exactly that and later died at the ripe age of 120 years in Kashmir. His tomb is in Srinagarr. I am available for more insight.
Until then, Wassalaam!
~
Many people can say many things about Jesus. Based on what evidence is the tomb you’re referring to Jesus’? The Injil teaches that Jesus came first for the Israelites, and through this nation all the other nations on earth would be blessed and saved.

`
Why did you remove my comments? There was not any violent stuff in it. Or is it because there was the proof in it that Isa(a.s) is not the Son of Allah(j).
~
Gul,
I emailed you, but apparently you didn’t get it. We had to delete your comment because it was not related to the article.
`
The comment was about the verse from the Injil: [b]”I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” [/b](John 14:6). And again Isa said, [b]”For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life…” [/b](Injil John 6:40).
The explanation was what it means according to Zakir Naik.
~
Gul,
So, what is Zakir Naik’s explanation of the verse?
`
I believe all of the points, but I think Isa didn’t sacrifice His life to take the sins of other people. His followers know that on the day of Judgment every one is responsible for his own character. If Isa sacrificed His life for His follower’s sins, then when someone (follower of Isa) steals or is involved in a crime why is he punished? If Isa took his sins he must not be punished.
~
Anonomous,
You are right that everyone is responsible for what they do. If this person falls into sin, he will be punished. However, if he asks forgiveness from God, God will forgive him. [b]”If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”[/b] (1 John 1:9).
But this doesn’t mean that a person does not have to live the consequences of his sin. For example, if a girl who is a Christian, falls and has sex outside of marriage and gets pregnant. If she asks God to forgive her, He will, but she still must live with the consequence of her sin – an unplanned pregnancy and the raising of a child on her own.
God is merciful and is willing to forgive as long as there’s today. [b]“Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called ‘today,’ that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. As it is said, ‘Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.’”[/b] (Injil, Hebrews 3:12-15)
`
If You are a good English speaker than you will understand what Zakir Naik is saying about that verse in the Injil if you watch that video.
~
Gul,
I deleted the video because we do not allow any links in our comments. So, I need you to tell me what he says.

I didn’t show any link in the comments. You can watch the video on dailymotion or youtube. I’m not too good in English so I may make a mistake in explaining it.

Gul,
The video was a link, and you can’t post any videos on here.

Jesus was a messenger of Allah. He did miracles so people would believe in Him. He also said that after Him a messenger would come. That messenger was Ahmad (Muhammad PBUH). Jesus is not dead. He will come back to kill Dajjal with Imam Mahedi.
~
KKK,
You are right that Isa was a messenger of Allah. However, for Christians He’s not just a messenger, but also a prophet, a man, and also God. He also didn’t send Muhammad, but the Holy Spirit God. The promised Counselor is called “[b]the spirit of truth (John 14:17)[/b].” And because He is Spirit “[b]The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him (John 14:17)[/b].” Furthermore, because He is Spirit, Isa Al-Masih told His disciples that, “[b]He lives with you and will be in you (John 14:17)[/b].” How could Muhammad possibly fulfil this prophesy? Could Muhammad ‘live in’ the disciples of Isa Al-Masih? Muhammad was a man in the flesh. He was not an invisible spirit. For more information, please read our article on this link: https://www.isaandislam.com/muhammad/the-holy-spirit-is-muhammad-the-comforter-of-the-injil.html.
He’s called Al-Masih because He’s King of Kings. He ascended to Heaven and will come again on the second time. He’s the Imam Mahdi who will judge all mankind.
`
We believe in Isa, but He is not God. He was also a human and He was not sent only for Christians but for all mankind to bring them towards faith.
Please differentiate between hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) and hazrat Isa. Because Allah treats his messengers equally. The main thing is that we don’t have the right to decide who is wrong or right. Time will tell who is right or wrong.
~
Thank you for your comment. I can understand your point of view by saying that Isa was not God. However, from the Bible, we can know that He is God, who came to earth and became flesh like us. He proved Himself to be God by the things He did. Isa did things that only God can do, like to forgive sin (Matthew 9:2), made the lame walk (Matthew 9:6), and even brought the dead back to life (Matthew 9:18, 22). If a person has the proof that Isa is God, then there is no reason for Him to explicitly demand worship.
You shouldn’t wait until the judgment day come to get proof, because the confirmation of the truth can be known now. And this is very important for all mankind to know before it’s too late. I would advise you to search Isa Al-Masih through the previous Books (Taurat, Zabur, and Injil) while also praying to Allah fervently to give you the truth. Because Isa said that only through Him can one go to the Father (Allah) (Injil, John 14:6).
Please visit this link to give you further explanation about Isa bringing guidance and light: https://www.isaandislam.com/Isa-Al-Masih/isa-al-masih-brings-guidance-and-light.html
`
Aila,
We should not differentiate between Allah’s messengers. Can you tell me some verses from the Bible that prove Isa is the Son of God?
What does Christianity say about the Holy Prophet Muhaamad(PBUH) and Imam Mehdi who will end Dajjal with Isa?
~
KKK,
Here are some verses that tell about Isa as the Son of God:
Injil, Luke 1:35: [b]“The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.’”[/b] (The angel spoke to Maryam before she conceived Isa Al-Masih.)
Injil, John 3:16: [b]”For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”[/b] (The apostle John who was also Isa’s disciple wrote this.)
Injil, Matthew 3:17,[b]“And a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.'”[/b](This voice was from God when Isa was baptized.)
There are many more verses; you may search those in the Bible.
Isa was not just a messenger or a prophet. He was more than that. He was a man, but also God. He was God because He who was God incarnated becoming a man.
We cannot say anything more about Muhammad because we do not find His name written or prophesied about in the Bible.
Because the Son of God came already, we are not separated anymore from God because our sin is forgiven.
You are right that Isa will come a second time. He will judge all people according to what they have done in their heart, mind, and action. He will also judge the anti-Christ, the deceiver. Whoever is against Him will receive His wrath and will be thrown into the lake of fire (Revelation 19:20).
