Compare Psalms 110.1, "The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool", and Dan. 7.13, "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, [one] like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven".
I don't know if the Christians on this forum are aware, but Muslims too, believe in Jesus as their saviour and pray for his return. We just do not attribute partners to God, or believe God has begotten. We also don't believe that Jesus was crucified - these are probably the major differences between Islam and Christianity.
One of the most beautiful, and shortest chapter in the Qur'an:
112:1 Say: He Allah is One.
112:2 Allah is he on Whom all depend.
112:3 He begets not, nor is he begotten.
112:4 And none is like him.
All Muslims await the return of Jesus, and many of us pray daily that his return is soon, such a day will bring much joy to the hearts of the believers. :)
