Chapter: The descent of 'Eisa bin Mariam to judge according to the Shari'ah of our Prophet Muhammad (saws); And how Allah has honored this Ummah; And clarifying the evidence that this religion will not be abrogated; and that a group from it will continue to adhere to the truth and prevail until the day of resurrection

Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

By Him in Whose hand is my life, the son of Mary (ﷺ) will soon descend among you as a just judge. He will break crosses, kill swine and abolish Jizya and the wealth will pour forth to such an extent that no one will accept it.

Explanation

-The descending of Esaa is a sign of the Hour

-Esaa is described as Muqsit meaning he will judge by the Sharee'ah of Muhammad

-He will refute those who worship the cross and changed theory religion 

-in this is the recommendation to kill pigs if possible, despite some of the Shafi'ees saying we shouldn't unless they are causing harm

-Qaadhee said Esaa will only accept Islam or Jizyah and there will be no war, but this view is weak. Nawawi quotes Khattaabi in saying what this means is he will abandon the Jizyah so it'll only be Islam or death

-Today, if someone pays Jizyah this is accepted but only until Esaa comes

-Wealth and justice will be plenty so nothing will be accepted except Emaan (TN perhaps after the demise of the Jews, wealth will spread)

-Sijdah is being used to refer to Salah

-Salaat during the end of times will be precious because ignorance will spread and people will seek to strengthen their Emaan because they will have no desire for wealth as it will be aplenty. Qadhee suggested that it will be better form of worship than giving in Sadaqah as wealth be plenty.

-Qabla Mawtihi refers to Esaa, with the Tafseer of Aboo Hurayrah so the Ayah means that Esaa will not die except that the false Aqeedah in him and his mother is made clear.

Others from the Mufasiroon stated that it refers to the people of Ahl al-Kitaab, meaning that every Christian will know the truth at the time of death but this will be of no benefit then. 

Some said it refers to the death of the Prophet, meaning the clear Aqeedah will be explained before the death of the Prophet.

-Qilaas refers to camels. It means that they will not be looked after as in the Aayah, و اذا العشار عطلت

Qadhee said camels will become worthless but the first view is stronger 

Usoolee Benefit 

-Who is the Naasikh, Esaa or Muhammad? The answer is that it's the Prophet Muhammad as Prophet already conveyed the Bayaan of the Naskh whilst Esaa is merely going to implement it. 

-The legislation started at the time of the Prophet but this is Muqayyid in its time until Esaa comes
