Hello and welcome to the forum. I originally posted this, however, I don’t think any replies came directly from a Muslim. Do Muslims believe that Jesus will one day return to Earth to judge mankind?
I am also Muslim. To reply to gospelsaves' question, we do believe that Jesus (peace be upon him) will return from the heavens to Earth. We don't believe that he was crucified, but was raised to the heavens to be saved from those who wished to execute him. He will descend down after the Antichrist appears and spreads havoc and chaos throughout the land, and he will fight assemble an army to fight him. To my knowledge, this is what Islamic faith holds.

I thought Muslim's believed Jesus would return to tell the world to follow Islam.

If local Muslim's are any indication of "thoughts" about non-Muslim's, it's that any non-Muslim, especially in Western society, is an infidel. One said "My jihad is to live among the infidels. To keep my faith pure in God within a materialistic society is the ultimate test of faith. Most people go to church on Sunday, and that's their religion for the week. My religion is every day, every hour. I feel blessed to think about God every morning."
Islam wasn't much different from Christianity 80 years ago in America. The traditions - like waiting for marriage, dressing so you don't allow a man to lust after you, asking parents permission to date the daughter - was an important tradition in America for many years.
From what CNN showed on their "God's Warriors" special which dealt with Islam, Muslims believe that Jesus will one day return and do a truce with the Islam world.
Isn't it amazing that there is record of Jesus in the Quran?
A major difference is that Christians believe Jesus is the son of God. We don't. We believe he was a prophet, along with many others, such as Abraham, Moses, Joseph, Mohammad (peace be upon all of them). All are mentioned with the utmost respect and regard in the Koran.
As for what Muslims think of non-Muslims, I think every religion believes theirs is the right one, or chosen one. So do we. What we think of non-Muslims really boils down to each individual Muslim, so it's difficult to speak for everyone.
You have the radical, extreme believers. I have my opinion of that as well, and I personally think those are the ones that have chosen to focus on specific aspects of Islam because it is to their advantage. Ask a Muslim American how difficult it is to hold onto your beliefs in these current times, how hard it is to be a Muslim and proud of it, with so many in the same faith professing hate and biligerance. Do I think they will be martyrs for going out and picking a fight, for killing innocent people? No. You can't look at the actions of one group and assume it represents the whole.
Just my opinion.
