Belief in the return of Jesus (PBUH) is one of the most central shared doctrines between Islam and Christianity, playing a key role in the eschatological framework of both religions. This study adopts a comparative-analytical approach to examine the signs and indicators of Jesus’ return in two primary sources—the Holy Qur’an and the Bible—and how these signs are interpreted in Islamic and Judeo-Christian exegetical traditions. The research aims to identify the theological and interpretive roots of these signs by analyzing the sacred texts and their commentaries, and to highlight both the commonalities and differences. The findings indicate that in Christian exegesis, the return of Jesus (PBUH) is often associated with concepts such as final judgment, cosmic transformation, the millennial kingdom, and the restoration of divine sovereignty. These interpretations vary between historical and eschatological readings. In contrast, Islamic exegesis typically links Jesus’ return with the Mahdist paradigm, the emergence of the Antichrist (Dajjāl), the establishment of justice, the eradication of oppression, and the global dominance of Islam. These differences in approach stem from distinct theological, historical, and hermeneutical backgrounds in each tradition. Moreover, while Islamic interpretations emphasize combining Qur’anic verses with prophetic traditions (hadith) and accept non-linear chronology, Christian interpretations tend to follow a more sequential and time-bound arrangement of eschatological signs. Overall, this research outlines the interpretive convergences and divergences as a foundation for fostering interfaith dialogue on fundamental issues such as salvation, justice, and humanity’s ultimate destiny.
