Consensus of Companions of Prophet Muhammad On Jesus' Death
Ahmadi scholars also present this event. When the Prophet Muhammad died, the Sahaba were grieved and sad. Umar, angered and upset, took out a sword, and said that he would kill anyone who said Muhammad is dead. At this instance Abu Bakar quoted: And Muhammad is but a messenger; the messengers have come before him; if then he dies or is killed will you turn back upon your heels? And whoever turns back upon his heels, he will by no means do harm to Allah in the least and Allah will reward the grateful." (3.144) No companion said Jesus is alive in heaven and he would come physically in Second Coming. This means that they knew Jesus was dead. This is extensively discussed in Ahmadi books.
