Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 68 this is the misguiding group that has been called the Dajjal in the Hadith and the Zallin in the Holy Quran? Breaking of the Cross and Killing of the Swine It should also be kept in mind that it is written in S a hih al-Bukh a r i , viz the Messiah to come (who has now come), that: 1 ْرَ. ی ِ َقْتُل ُ الْخِنْز ی َ ْب َ و ی َكْسِر ُ الصَّلِ ی ْرَ. ی ِ َقْتُل ُ الْخِنْز ی َ ْب َ و ی َكْسِر ُ الصَّلِ ی Meaning that he would break the Crosses and kill the Swines.

And when he said َ ْب ی َكْسِر ُ الصَّلِ ی َ ْب ی َكْسِر ُ الصَّلِ ی [‘He will break the Cross’], it did not mean that when the Messiah comes, he would go around breaking crosses made of stone, copper, and wood etc. that are sold for pennies. What it means is that he would demol- ish the foundation of Christianity. The entire basis of their reli- gion rests upon Jesus being alive. It is not just that, like other Prophets, he is living but his being alive entails that he is going to come to this world a second time and will judge people.
