He will resemble the famous Sahabi (A.S.) Hadhrat Urwa bin Masoodi
(R.A.). He will be of average height and red and white in colour. His
hair spread to the shoulders, straight, neat and shining as after a
bath. On bending his head, it will seem as if pearls are falling. He
will have an armour on his body. He will be wearing two pieces of cloth
light yellow in color.
His Descension
He
will descend on a Jamaat (group) that will be righteous at the time and
comprising of 800 men and 400 women. The people will be preparing for
war at the time against Dajjal (the anti-Christ). It will be time for
Fajr prayers, and Imam Mahdi will be the Amir (leader). From the
darkness of the dawn, a sound will suddenly be heard that "one who
listens to your pleas has come" -- the righteous people will look
everywhere and their eyes will fall on Isa (A.S.). Briefly, at the time
of Fajr, Isa (A.S.) will descend. When descending, Isa (A.S.)'s hands
will be on the shoulders of two angels (according to another source (Kab
Abrar), a cloud will carry him). On their insistence Hadhrat Isa will
introduce himself. He will inquire about their enthusiasm and thoughts
on Jihad against Dajjal. Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) will descend on the eastern
side near the Minaret in Damascus (or in Baitul-Muqaddus by Imam Mahdi).
At the time Imam Mahdi will have proceeded forward to lead the Fajr
Salaat. The Iqamat of the Salaat would have been said (already recited)
and Imam Mahdi will call Hadhrat Isa (A.S.) for Imamat (to lead the
prayer), but he (Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)) will instead tell Imam Mahdi to
lead the prayer since the Iqamat of that Salaat has already been said
for him. Thus Imam Mahdi will lead the prayer, and Hadhrat Isa (A.S.)
will follow him. After the ruku, he will make this statement: "Allah has
killed Dajjal and the Muslims have appeared."
