Return of Hazrat Isa A.S.

Re: Return of Hazrat Isa A.S.

Peace Bigboi

I like you … you are being open with your beliefs … in all this thread it did not take you long to bring up your beliefs … but I am so shocked that so far people have been more concerned to try to dismantle our beliefs without giving suitable alternatives …

Not that I think our beliefs will be dismantled … but that is my zidd I guess …

The hadith is clear to me however … to me all of those things have to be done at the hands of Isa (AS) any other just doesn’t fit. As for the allegorical meanings I understand how they can be relevant, but if all the bits are not in place I can’t accept them. So hopefully I have shown you that I do take your beliefs seriously … I have books from your jammat as well.

Regarding jizyah I must disagree that it is not meant to make people rich … that would be abuse of the jizyah. It is slander of the jizyah that has brought about this common understanding in the West … Jizyah was meant to enable a healthy economy and it is equal to zakat in value - which is far lower than taxation in the modern world. Jizyah may have been abused to ridicule people but where is ridicule compared with killing and death and slavehood of countries in the rib’a based systems? No … I’m holding my guns on this one … jizyah is a beautiful thing … the only time it is not required is when there is no more threat from foriegn forces and no more poverty.
