The Meaning of His Saying: "When Allah Sent the Messiah, the Son of Mary"

Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: We are confused by what came in the hadith of al-Nu'aym ibn Sam'an regarding the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "When Allah sends Jesus, the son of Mary." What is the meaning of his saying "when He sends"?

Answer:
He sent him down; "sent" means He sent him down from the sky. So the Messiah will descend by the command of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and this is a sending from Allah (Mighty and Majestic). It does not mean that He gave him life, because he is alive. The meaning of "He sent him" is not that He gave him life, nor that He sent him as a messenger, because there is no messenger after the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Rather, 'Isa (peace be upon him) will come following the Messenger and implementing the Shari'ah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
