Isa (alaihis salaam) being in the heavens

Question

Is it the belief of the Ahlas Sunnah that Prophet Isa (alaihis salaam) is not in the Barzakh yet?

Answer

He is in the heavens. Generally, barzakh refers to that life that is between this life and the aakhirat. The one who cannot return to this life is termed to be in barzakh. Since Isa (alaihis salaam) is going to return to this life, we will not say that he is in barzakh.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
