ADNAN OKTAR'S LIVE INTERVIEW ON DENGE TV (14 JANUARY 2009)
ADNAN OKTAR: The Prophet Jesus (as) will descend to a Christian community. That Christian community will be reminiscent of Islam. When he returns he will be wearing the same clothing and shoes. Everything will be exactly as it was then. And we will see those clothes, insha’Allah. We will see those shoes and smell his immaculate scent. He will come with the same scent as he was wearing in those days. Not even his scent will change. He will smell delightful, the Prophet Jesus. He will return with the scent he used in those days.

AZERBAIJAN STATE NEWS AGENCY INTERVIEW (August 2008)
ADNAN OKTAR: When he first comes, the Prophet Jesus (as) will not know who he is, insha’Allah. A Christian group reminiscent of Islam will find him somewhere and make him one of them. There he will learn the Torah, the Gospel and the Qur’an. But through his own faith and reason he will decide that the Qur’an is the true book and will abide by the Qur’an.
ADNAN OKTAR'S LIVE INTERVIEW ON BASKENT TV (13 February 2009)
ADNAN OKTAR: He will be left in a state of sleep among a Christian community, but a Christian community reminiscent of Islam. He will call them to the Qur’an first, and from that nucleus he will spread Islam to the whole Christian world. The Prophet Jesus (as) will wage a campaign in schools and will have followers on military bases and in the military. That is how Said Nursi describes his first activities.
ADNAN OKTAR'S LIVE INTERVIEW ON CAY TV (18 FEBRUARY 2009)
ADNAN OKTAR: People will also see Allah’s artistry if they wait a little for the natural flow of events. There will see how Allah moves matters on with a natural development and how He causes people to regard this as natural. This is a miracle and the artistry of Allah. For example, there will be no reason for his followers to be shocked at the Prophet Jesus’s (as) return. People will find someone asleep in a building. But they will immediately become familiar with him. They will have suspicions about him, about someone who cannot remember his past. One does come across such people from time to time, but he will also be exceedingly attractive, radiant and well-mannered. They will have their suspicions and say that this is probably the Prophet Jesus (as) and look after and help him. They will soon after realize that he is the Prophet Jesus (as). But they will be expecting a Jesus under the wings of angels, a Jesus in a form that everyone can see. That will not happen. No such miracle that might remove all possible doubt and eliminate people’s freedom to use their free will in that way has ever taken place. Every miracle has had a possible alternative explanation. Which is why some people have looked at that and denied them.
ADNAN OKTAR'S LIVE INTERVIEW ON ON ERZINCAN CAN TV (Istanbul, July 2008)
ADNAN OKTAR: The Messiah Jesus (as) is currently in the presence of Allah, insha’Allah. Said Nursi says that the Prophet Jesus (as) will appear in a Christian community, but one strongly reminiscent of Islam, insha’Allah. When he comes he will be unaware that he is the Prophet Jesus (as). They will find him somewhere. After that, the Prophet Jesus (as) will convert that community into a fully Islamic one. He will recite the Qur’an. He will also learn the verses off by heart, we are told. Because the prophet will have a superb memory. Our Prophet (saas) also had one. In other words, prophets know the scriptures by heart. Moses (as) knew the Torah by heart, and that is a very lengthy scripture, but he learned it from start to finish. Allah imparts total recall. And Allah will cause the Prophet Jesus (as) to memorize the Qur’an. He will know it right through. By means of that small community, he will convert all Christians to Islam. In the same way that he was initially a Jew and made the Jews Christians and converted them to Christianity, when he returns this time he will convert the Christians to Islam. Allah will give him such a power, insha’Allah. He and Hazrat Mahdi (as) will work together. The Prophet (saas) says that when Hazrat Mahdi (as) is performing prayer, the Prophet Jesus will place his hands on his shoulders and tell him to lead them in prayer and that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will then act as imam. The Prophet (saas) then says the Prophet Jesus (as) will go back to the rear ranks and that he and Hazrat Mahdi (as) will pray together. This will be a sign that leadership, the role of imam, will be passed down in the line of our Prophet (saas).
