98 A critical Review of the Pamphlet—‘f a te h -e-Qadian’ same grave between those of Ab u Bakr ra and ‘ Umar ra ’. (Mishk a t, B a bu Nuz u li ‘ I s a as 50 , section 3) Respected reader, if we depend only on the apparent words of this deeply meaningful saying of the Holy Prophet sa and overlook its underlying wisdom, then the picture will look somewhat like this: when that imaginary Messiah, which is imagined to have been sitting, for the last 2,000 years in Heaven, will come down to earth, people will listen to his claim, but instead of believing in him, they will claim that it is not enough to descend from Heaven, we will wait and see whether or not you will marry. Firstly, it is ludicrous that a decrepit old man of more than 2,000 years of age will descend from Heaven and will go out looking for a wife, so that he can provide a proof of his truth. Secondly, Allah says in the Holy Quran quite clearly: And him whom We grant long life — We revert him to a weak condition of creation. 51 As one reaches old age his limbs and muscles gradually decline in strength and man becomes weakened. How can the imaginary Messiah, who has been sitting in the imaginary Heavens for 2,000 years, be outside the law mentioned in this verse? Everyone knows what happens to the physical condition of a man who is 100 years old. Imagine what will be the state of the body and the mind of a 50 Chapter: Descent of Jesus [ Hadrat ‘ I s a as ] [Publishers] 51 S u rah Y a S i n 36:69 [Publishers]
