Muslims believe in Jesus (ISA) as prophet of ALLAH. But we doesnt believe in the image potrayed by the christians. We should also condemn this act by the evil minds who want create troubles in the society. Muslims believe that ISA will come back with the permission of ALLAH who will follow the teachings of Prophet Muhammad pbuh and will give justice and peace in all the society. 

 

If we study the life of Prophets of ALLAH then there will be peace in oneself which will be implemented & recognized by the society.
