Explanation:
1:
Several hadiths with this meaning have been narrated,
but all of them are subject to criticism,
and the intended meaning is that near the Day of Judgment, when Isa (alayhis salam) will descend,
he will remain alive for forty-five (years), and when he passes away, he will be buried near the Prophet’s (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) grave,
and Allah knows best.
Note:
(In the chain of narration, Uthman ibn Dhahhak is a weak narrator.)
