When Jesus was raised up into the Heavens, a cloud approached him until it was close enough for him to sit upon. Mary (his mother) bid him farewell crying with tears as she watched him being raised up into the Heavens. Jesus threw her his garment saying, This (ascension) will be our Sign until Judgement Day. He threw his hood on Shamoun (Simon). His mother kept waiving her hand to him until he disappeared out of view completely. She loved him dearly, as she offered him the love of both parents, seeing as he had no father, and she constantly kept him company. Allah, the Almighty says [And there is none of the People of the Book but must believe in him (Jesus) before his death] (Quran 4:159) Ibn Kathir added: This is the truth as will become evident shortly and will be coupled with conclusive proofs. At the End of Time and right before the onset of the Day of Judgment, Jesus will descend back to Earth to kill the Antichrist Dajjal, kill the swine, break the cross, and abolish Jizya Tax from the People of the Book, who will be given two choices; either to accept Islam... or War. Allah, the Almighty says [And on the Day of Judgment he (Jesus) will be a witness against them] (Quran 4:159) i.e. he will testify to all their actions which he bore witness to before his ascension to Heaven and after his return to Earth.

The use of incidental copyrighted material is covered under the Fair Use (Copyright Act) 17 U.S.C Section 107, with particular emphasis on such use for educational and non-profit purposes, which states: Notwithstanding the provisions of section 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phono-records or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. The copyrighted video clips used in this educational video have been extracted and reformatted from uploaded streaming material on public domain videos already live on YouTube, and as such, have inferior picture and audio quality to the professionally produced source material from which they originally came from and therefore not suitable for potential counterfeit reproductions. The same applies to the inclusion of certain copyrighted photos and images that have been degraded in composition and quality. They have been incorporated into the project by necessity because they benefit the presentation due to their symbolic and historical significance and enhance the educational awareness of viewers to the main topic of the video. Creative transformation has occurred by the embedding of personally created original artwork and animations into the newly created educational video and the complete removal of the original soundtrack to all copyrighted video clips which have been replaced by an insightful and uniquely original commentary for the purposes of scientific, religio-philosophic and scholarly review. The newly compiled video documentary is not intended to be used for commercial or monetary gain, but is rather an amateur presentation created purely for the purposes of publicly disseminating uniquely original educational information for non-profit gain in accordance with the YouTube submission policy. The overall usage of individual clips amounts to very little in relation to the original copyrighted works in totality, and the selected portions are respectfully and appropriately used to elaborate upon alternative and diverse religious and philosophical perspectives that do not necessarily represent the viewpoints of the original copyright holders. As I am not competing financially with the original copyright holders, this does not infringe upon their potential market share.
