The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Messiah, Isa son of Maryam, is about to descend as a just ruler and an upright leader. He will kill the swine, break the cross, and the call will become one. So convey to him my greeting of peace from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and tell him about me, that he may confirm me."When death approached him, he said, "Convey my greeting of peace to him."
حدثنا أبو أحمد قال حدثنا كثير بن زيد عن الوليد بن رباح
قال رسول الله ﷺ يوشك المسيح عيسى ابن مريم أن ينزل حكما قسطا وإماما عدلا فيقتل الخنزير ويكسر الصليب وتكون الدعوة واحدة فأقرئوه أو أقرئه السلام من رسول الله ﷺ وأحدثه فيصدقني فلما حضرته الوفاة قال أقرئوه مني السلام
