The following Ahadith mention what is occurring now in Syria they give us a specific outline and time frame for events between us the emergence of Mahdi (ra);
The Prophet (saws) said, “At the end of time there will be a trial in which people will be sorted (fitnatul Duhaima) in a similar way to that in which gold is sorted from metal. Therefore do not rebuke the people of Syria rather, rebuke the evil people among them, because amongst them are the Abdals (Awliya). Allah will send a flood from Heaven (an event) that will disperse their groups in a way that if foxes were to attack them they would be victorious. Then Allah will send a man (to the people of syria) from the perfumed musked children of the Messenger, praise and peace be upon him, amongst approximately 12-15,000 under three banners and their password is ‘Die, die!’ And they will be fought by the people of 7 banners under each is a man seeking the kingdom (Syria). They will be killed, defeated, then the Hashimite (leader of the black flags) will appear, so Allah will restore unity and favors to the people and this will be the case until the Dajjaal (the lying, false messiah) comes.”
Other Similar Narration’s State:
The Prophet (pbuh) Said: “So do not rebuke the people of Syria but rebuke the evil people among them because amongst them are the Abdals (Awliya). A flood is about to be sent down upon the people of Syria (the Arab spring), which will disperse their groups (cause a civil war) in such a way, that if foxes (deceptive and cunning groups) attacked they would be beaten. At that time a man from the Family of my House will come (to the people of Syria) under 3 banners; between 12-15,000 and their password is – ‘Die, die.’ Then, there will come 7 banners and under each will be one man seeking the kingdom (Syria). Allah will kill all of them and restore unity and favors upon the hearts of Muslims, and those who were far (the Syrians who emigrated) come close.”
Al-Hakim narrated from ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib (ra) that the Messenger of Allah (saws) said: “There will be at the end of time a trial that will sort out men as gold is sorted out from metal (fitnatul Duhaima). So do not revile the people of Sham, but revile their evil ones (the dictators and their group), for among them are the Abdal [Awliya/Saints]. A flood is about to be released upon the people of Sham (the Arab spring) that will split their unity, so that even if foxes (ISIS and Al Qaeda) attack them they would defeat them. At that time, a man from my household will come out with three banners (to the people of Syria). The one who estimates highly will say that they are fifteen thousand. And the one who estimates lower will say that they are twelve thousand. Their sign will be: “Amit, amit [kill, kill].” They will meet in battle seven banners, and under each of those banners will be a man seeking the kingdom (Syria). Allah will kill all of them, and restore to the Muslims their unity and bounty and their far ones and near ones (the Syrians who emigrated will come back).” (These Ahadith are found in the references of Abu Dawud, Ahmad, Ibn Majah and At-Tabarani and al Hakim reported them).
The Events mentioned in these Ahadith make things very clear, at the end of these Ahadith and this war in Syria the prophet (saws) said that Allah will…“restore unity and favors upon the hearts of Muslims” and… “the Hashimite will appear, so Allah will restore unity and favors to the (muslim) people and this will be the case until the Dajjaal comes.”
This tells us when this hadith is to occur, at the end of the war mentioned in the hadith will be the time that Allah will begin to restore unity to the hearts of the Muslim Ummah, meaning prior to it they will have been in disunity. We can narrow the time because this can only be the case after the last Khalifah, 100 years ago and before the Mahdi’s (ra) era begins, hence it is referring to when the era of dictators will end and Asad is the last dictator.
This era is what divided the ummah for nearly 100 years and it is now ending, this unity Allah will grant is the initial step that will pave the way for the return of Islamic lands to be ruled by the Mahdi (ra), Unity can’t be zapped into people hearts so Allah will prepare them psychologically and spiritually for it with what they will experience in life.
Because the hadith says this unity will be the state of the Muslims until the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him) appears, it means this is the beginning of the unity under the mahdi (ra) who will end the oppression we are all living through, the black flags are the Mahdi’s army and they will pave the way for him by establishing His government before He emerges, this process will begin after the war in Syria ends as the ahadith indicate.
The prophet (saws) begins the Ahadith by mentioning the sifting of people, “At the end of time there will be a trial in which people will be sorted in a similar way to that in which gold is sorted from metal” the precious metal is removed from the scrap ore around it, the gold is crushed and agglomerated before it is distilled with mineral acids, in a similar way those precious to Allah will go through trials that will purify them, make them stand out from the scrap around them so they are known to each other, then refined even further so they become entirely pure, this is the sifting of people mentioned in a number of ahadith connecting them with events in Syria.
The prophet (saws) in a number of Ahadith mentioned the fitna’s (Trials and tribulations) that would befall this Ummah towards the end of time, and gave each one a specific name that characterized it so we could know it by it’s qualities, these fitna’s have been the subject of many works written by the scholars through out Islam’s History, among these fitna’s are fitna al Ahlaas, al Sarra and ad Duhaima.
The event that will sort people out has been mentioned in a number of Ahadith, the prophet (saws) called it fitnatul Duhaima.
The scholars described the Duhaima as the “Fitna that Will Sweep the Arabs Away,” we are seeing this today with the destruction of historical mosques and sites in Islamic lands some thousands of years old, sites that are crucial to muslim identity are bing destroyed by ISIS and the Salafi’s on behalf of a super power that as the prophet Daniel (as) said in the bible “crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left” of their society and heritage.
Abdullah b. Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: “There will be a fitna that will “tastanzifu” (meaning it will destroy) the Arabs, its dead will be in Hell. During which the tongue will be more severe (ashadd) than a blow of the sword”. (Ahamd, Abu Dawud, at-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah).
“its dead will be in Hell” tells us who this is talking about because the only type of death that takes a person directly to hell is suicide, the hadith is clearly talking about the Salafi’s and their brainwashed suicide bombers.
“During which the tongue will be more severe (ashadd) than a blow of the sword “ – With the spread of the Internet and mobile technology this indicates to us when this event would occur because not more than 30 years ago mass media was still uncommon around the world it was all localised. This description “more sever than the blow of the sword” is also mentioned in a number of other narration’s (discussed later) identifying the event that will destroy the Arabs as the Duhaima, considering all the ahadith about this matter it is more precise to say the Duhaima will lead to their complete destruction and eventual death.
Regarding the Prophet’s (saws) statement “tastanzifu” Ibn al-Athir and Ibn al-Manzur [Ibn al-Athir is the scholar who wrote an-Nihaya fi Gharib al-Hadith, a dictionary on uncommon words found in hadith texts; Ibn al-Manzur is the author of the famous Lisan al-Arab.] said: It means it will encompass them in destruction. It is said [in Arabic]: istanzafat ash-shay’, if you take it all (it is encompassing). Destruction doesn’t just mean destroying buildings it means destroying their society and way of life, the Duhaima will bring this about and it will eventually lead to their deaths before the time of Isa (as) as ahadith clearly state.
Imam Ali al-Qari said in al-Mirqat [al-Mirqat is a commentary of Mishkat al-Masabih]: “It has been said that it means it will purify them from filth (al-ardhal)” this is because Allah purifies complacent people through struggle, the Duhaima will sift people out like gold is extracted and it will divide the world into two camps one filled with hypocrites and one filled with iman (religion).
What is similar to Imam al-Qari’s statement are the narrations about fitnatul ad-Duhaima’ (ad-duhaima’ means black and dark), the Prophet (saws) said: “It will not leave any single individual of this Umma (nation) but slap him on the cheek” (test his faith). In the Ahadith on the Duhaima, the Prophet (saws) said it will test the entire Ummah “Until people become two camps: one of faith (religion) with no hypocrisy and one of hypocrisy with no faith (religion).”
This shows that the fitnah of the Duhaima will separate the believers from the people of fitan, doubt and hypocrisy, making each stand out from the other as both are forced to take one of two sides that will be known to all, and the Duhaima is the greatest fitna that will occur prior to the appearance of the Antichrist (Allah’s curse be upon him), in the words of the people of hypocrisy “they are making their actions easy to see nowadays”.
The Prophet’s statement, “tastanzifu” means that it will consume most of them in destruction, this means it will lay the foundation’s for the death of the Arabs, an event mentioned in numerous Ahadith, this destruction will not end until the time of Isa (as) when most Arabs will have perished and they will be few in number.
The prophet (saws) said before the time of the Mahdi only 1/3 will have survived, and that the Arabs will mainly be residing in Jerusalem by the time Isa (as) descends.
The Messenger of Allah (saws) said regarding the Great wars we will soon see: “The Romans (Europeans) will attack those Arabs who reside in their land (Europe), until not a single Arab man or woman or child remains in their land but that they shall be killed by the Romans.” (Kitab Al Fitan, Bab Al Aamaq wa fath al Constantiniya, page 260)
At the time of the Great war “the Romans (Europeans) shall say to their leader: ‘We shall relieve you of the Arabs,’ (intending Genocide) and they shall gather up for the great battle” (Ibn Maja)
By the time the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him) who emerges seven months after the Great War, Umm Sharik said: “I heard Allah’s Apostle (saws) say: “The people would run away from the Dajjaal seeking shelter in the mountains.” She said: “Were would be the Arabs then on that day?” He said: “They would be small in number.” (Sahih Muslim, Book 41, No. 7035)
Umm Sharik bint Abi’l-‘Akr said , “O Messenger of Allah, were will the Arabs be at that time?” (of the Dajjaal) He said, “At that time they will be few; most of them will be in Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem), and their Imam will be a righteous man. Whilst their Imam is going forward to lead the people in praying Salat al-Subh (the morning prayer), ‘Eyssa son of Maryam will descend.” (Ibn Majja)
Some of these ahadith mention that this fitna will occur due to competing claims of jahiliya, i.e. nationalism which only existed in the muslim world after the fall of the last Khalifah at the end of WW1, a point in time when the Muslims lost their sense of unity because its lands once had a single ruler, today the effects of nationalism dominate the Muslim mindset they forget that the prophet (saws) came to eliminate nationalism itself.
He (saws) said “The Muslim Ummah is like one body. If the eye is in pain then the whole body is in pain and if the head is in pain then the whole body is in pain”, this is a spiritual reality warning people that they cant turn a blind eye to what is occurring in the Muslim world it will affect the rest of the Ummah, and this reality will occur from the spiritual world down to our physical one, meaning it will be a cause for the troubles that afflict people in their personal lives and souls even though they are distant from it.
Imam Ibn Kathir similarly identified the major fintna’s that would befall the Ummah just before the emergence of the Mahdi (ra), in his work al Bidaya wa Nihaya, he arranges the Ahadith regarding the signs of the Hour into a chronological order placing the Hadith regarding the Duhaima before the emergence of the Mahdi (r.a).
He relates the following hadith regarding them and the Duhaima, it is essentially the most significant hadith we can quote about what is occurring in the world, all other narrations tie back to it and revolve around what it says;
Abdullah ibn Umar said: While we were sitting with the Messenger of Allah he mentioned the Fitan (strifes, trials & tribulations), mentioning many of them until he mentioned Fitnatul Ahlaas (The trial of the Saddlebag). Someone asked him: ‘ O Messenger of Allah, what is fitnatul Ahlaas? He said “It is the usurping of wealth and the fleeing”. Then (after it), will come Fitnatul Sarra (the fitna of secrets): its smoke is under the feet of a man (descendant) from my household (family), who claims he is of me, but he is not because my Awlyia (saintly men) are those who fear Allah. Then people will gather and agree upon a man, (but it will be an agreement that is) like a hip on a rib (meaning this will be a temporary arrangement, as a hip bone does not belong on the rib, if man bends his body to such a position he can not stay there for long before needing to do other things in life, so this position is temporary). Then there will be the Duhaima (Blind black, dark, catastrophic) trial. It will afflict every single person from this Nation. When it will be said that it is over, it will return; during it, a man will be a believer in the morning and a disbeliever (by) the night. (This will continue) until people will go to two Fustaats (groups) — the Fustaat of Eemaan (Group of faith or religion), in which there is no hypocrisy, and the Fustaat of hypocrisy, in which there is no Eemaan (faith or religion). And when that will come to you (when the sorting of people will finally end), wait for the Dajjaal on that day or on the morrow.” (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 37, Hadith 3. Ahmad related it as well in his Musnad).
Other Ahadith say “Then, the Duhaima Fitna (Dark Black & Cunning trial that catches people off guard will occur) that will not leave anyone without slapping him a slap (testing his faith); if people say it is finished, it stays longer; a man who is in the morning a Mu’min (Believer) by the evening becomes a Kafir (Disbeliever), until people will be divided into two factions: a faction of Iman (belief and religion) without hypocrisy and a faction of hypocrisy without Iman (belief and religion). When this happens (the sorting is finished), expect the Dajjaal that day or the next day’.” (Sunan Abu Dawud, Al-Haakim, and Al-Zahabi)
The Hadith ends with the emergence of the Dajjaal and begins with fitnatul Ahlaas, then fitnatul Sarra which will lead to fitnatul Duhaima and that will lead the world to the emergence of the Antichrist (Allah’s curse be upon him), one fitna following the other like beads on a string neckless falling from it when it is cut.
The Duhaima is the Fitnah that will sort people out until the time of the Dajjal (Allah’s curse be upon him), which indicates that the first two fitna’s mentioned in the hadith are in our past, relating the evidence to how these fitna’s were identified in a comprehensive manner would require a larger work than this current book, effectively here we are presenting the conclusion to that research with some of the evidence which consisted in the careful analysis of ahadith to identify it’s timing, it was identified by comparing well over two dozen ahadith mentioning events around it until a proper timeline was achieved, the methodology for this process we outlined at the end of this book.
To sum up the matter and it is clear from the history of Muslims over the past 100 years, the scholars said that the man referred to in this hadith “its smoke is under the feet of a man (descendant) from my household (family), who claims he is of me (my descendant), but he is not because my Awlyia (saintly people) are those who fear Allah” was Saddam Hussein, who in 1990 when the words Allahu Akbar first appeared on the Iraqi flag produced a genealogical chart of his ancestry claiming he is one of Ahl al Bayt to establish his legitimacy as the ruler of Iraq, Ahl al Bayt means the person is a descendant of the prophet (saws, Saddam’s surname to muslims indicates this ancestry, as the Hadith mentions he was responsible for fitnatul Sarra the strife of secrecy or spying and espionage that entered the muslim world during his life time.
The prophet (saws) also said “my Awlyia (saintly people) are those who fear Allah” meaning he will be a descendant of the prophet (saws) but the prophet disowned him because he was corrupt and did not fear Allah.
Fitnatul Ahlaas (The fitna of the Saddlebag) is the war in Iraq that occurred over Oil and control of wealth in the region before the first gulf war, in it’s name “the saddle bag” (used for carrying items while riding a horse) is an indication of the type of war that it would be, this is similarly clear from the description the prophet (saws) gave it, “It is fleeing and plunder”, like riders charging into a town to plunder the wealth of that place then fleeing afterwards from the law with all they can carry in their saddle bags.
This fitna is referring to the Iraq and Kuwait war which lead to the First Gulf war that brought the Americans (Law) into the Arabian Peninsula and began it’s dominance over the muslim world. Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait in 1990 to control it’s oil occupying it for seven months, the invasion caused roughly half of the Kuwaiti population to flee along with 150,000 foreigners (mostly Indians) working in the country.
During the 7-month occupation the forces of Saddam Hussein looted the countries vast wealth, in mid-January 1991 America launched a military assault on Iraq and Iraqi forces stationed in Kuwait. Hostilities continued until late February the same year, Saddam Husain loosing to them in less than a month, essentially fleeing with all he could carry.
All of this fits the description Rasul Allah (saws) gave, from Saddam’s intentions behind the war, to his looting of the country and his loss to America in less than a month, He (saws) called it the fitna of the saddle bag because it was the plunder of Kuwait’s wealth and fleeing from America less than a month after their invasion.
This event led to the non Muslims dominating Muslim lands for the next two decades and well into our time because they went unchallenged. As the prophet (saws) mentioned this period marked the lowest point in Islamic History, the Messenger of Allah (saws) said, “When you see that my nation dreads saying to the oppressor (Saddam), ‘Indeed you are an oppressor,’ then they have taken their leave (i.e. their existence and non-existence amounts to the same thing)” (Ahmad) and what would occur after this point in time as history has shown would directly lead to the destruction of their society and way of life because they wouldn’t fight for their freedom or Islam, ultimately this would all lead to the genocide of the Arab race as aggression against them will inevitably increase.
“Then, will come Fitnatul Sarra’: its smoke is under the feet of a man (descendant) from my household”, As Sarra means the fitna of secrets and as the scholars defined the meaning of the word this is referring to a fitna of spying and espionage. The prophet (saws) was very clear and specific in how he mentioned this fitna, he said it will be introduced into this Ummah by a man who was his descendant, but not of Him (saws), as his character is immoral, “it’s smoke” refers to the man fanning it’s tribulation causing it to spread among muslim’s, the smoke is underneath the feet of Saddam but the fire itself, it’s original cause in the world wasn’t his.
In the 80’s Russia (former U.S.S.R) and America (along with their allies) were in a war known as the “cold war” because there was no large-scale fighting directly between the two sides, it was mostly a war of espionage and spying, it began in 1947 after WW2 and ended in 1991, it nearly brought down both nations in the process and eventually led to end of the U.S.S.R (old Russia).
When Saddam Hussein took control of Iraq in 1979 as the head of the Baath Party he adopted these super powers methods and ruled Iraq with espionage, fear and propaganda. He began a campaign of spying on his entire populace to weed out and eliminate any people that would instigate anything against him.
When Iraq was then invaded in the first Gulf war Muslim independence in their own homeland was shattered as the permanent state of the occupation set in, this state of spying during the occupation became so severe because he wanted to protect himself from foreign powers people could not say anything against his oppression in their own home out of fear their neighbour or friend or family member may report them to one of his agents to gain some benefit from the regime during a time of sanctions.
Saddam Husain created the atmosphere that normalised this mindset in the wider Iraqi population and the Muslim world.
Because Saddam was at the same time defiant to the West and their allies he was viewed as a hero who was standing up against a tyrannical people that were dominating them, the Muslim world eventual adopted this same mindset and chose to ignore the fact he was oppressing his own people for the sake of nationalism and his own pride, they forgot that forbidding evil and upholding truth are two pillars of Islam which have to maintained and in fact the prophet (saws) said when the muslim community no longer stops oppression Allah would place dictators over them.
Allah in the Quran says that He doesn’t punish a city until all it’s inhabitants practiced evil, “And never did we destroy the townships unless the folk thereof were evil-doers” (2859). The prophet (saws) also said “If people see someone (practicing) injustice and do not set him right, Allah will almost certainly visit them all with sever punishment.”, Other narration’s state “If they see evil practiced and do not attempt to change it.”(Abu Dawuud)
Because people feared saying to Saddam you are an oppressor and they didn’t remove his oppression the prophet (saws) said “then they have taken their leave” they are no longer upholding anything from the Deen and the Ummah may as well not even exist, hence Allah will fate most of the Arabs to die by the time of the Mahdi (ra) and for them to be driven out of their lands by Europe when it invades then by the Dajjal (Allah;s curse be upon him) when He emerges.
He (saws) said the people of Sham will leave sham and the people of Egypt will flee Egypt (it’s destruction is also mentioned in the Bible), the Romans (Europe) will bombard there coastal areas heavily and devastate them entirely.
The prophet (saws) said “There are no people in whose midst acts of disobedience are habitual (they become a consistent habit) and who can change these habits but do not change them, except that Allah visits them with sweeping punishment.” (Abu Dawuud)
The hadith about these three fitnah’s indicates their time is in the ear of Dictators and all these events occurred underneath the dictators of the Baath Party, the Muslim’s refused to vilify their oppression and instead looked towards their methods for solutions, essentially they took their leave from being muslims’s during this time which lead to the Ummah’s lowest point in Islam’s history.
Saddam’s methods were adopted by other dictators around the Muslim world to maintain complete control over their populations, he made these methods seem acceptable and justifiable in the eyes of others who wanted power.
The fitna of secrets has continued into our time with the popularization of espionage and the agencies that carry them out by the media, their actions are no longer seen as shocking and moral despicable and the matter has only gotten worse in a technological age were the gadgets they once dreamed up are all now reality. It’s spread was at the hands of Saddam but now it has affected the entire Muslim world as anyone wishing to keep control over Muslim populations uses it, manipulating portions of the population to keep watch over others, raising some in status and lowering another.
This is the exact behaviour of Pharaoh, Allah said, “Pharaoh behaved arrogantly in the land, and divided the people into groups, seeking to weaken one section (while raising another), slaying their sons and sparing their daughters he was one of those who spread corruption” (28:4).
إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ عَلَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَجَعَلَ أَهْلَهَا شِيَعًا يَسْتَضْعِفُ طَائِفَةً مِّنْهُمْ يُذَبِّحُ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيِي نِسَاءَهُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُفْسِدِينَ
This state of affairs led to the emergence of the worst kind of people being placed in charge to maintain this system, those willing to do anything for this dunya (world), the prophet (saws) called them al Ruwaibidah (the corruptors of society) and mentioned their rule in Ahadith;
The prophet (saws) said, “There shall come upon people years of deceit in which the liar will be believed, the truthful one disbelieved (a reversal in society were the degenerates take the fore becoming the role models for people), the treacherous will be trusted and the trustworthy one considered treacherous (moral people are considered treacherous because they stop people from gaining wealth by deception, morality and ethics in business is seen as exactly this and religious people are not trusted in corporations whistle blowers are shunned and degraded because society now looks to evil people to gain from them, shunning and mistrusting those who go against the status quo); and the Ruwaybidah will speak out.’ It was said: Who are the Ruwaybidah? The Prophet, peace be upon him, replied: The lowly, contemptible one who will speak out about public affairs (governing peoples personal lives)(al-rajul al tafihu yatakallam fi amri’l-ammah).] (Ibn Majah, Sunan, no.4036; Ahmad, Musnad, no.7899; al-Hakim, Mustadrak, 4:465, saying: ‘Its chain is sahih).
Anas ibn Malik said, The Prophet (saws) said, (before) The time of the Dajjaal (their) will be years of confusion. People will believe a liar, and disbelieve one who tells the truth. People will distrust one who is trustworthy, and trust one who is treacherous (the fitna of espionage led to this state of affairs because it opened the door for people’s personal lives scrutinised and judged publicly, the catch phrase of the day “privacy is a thing of the past” now these degenerates speak out about what people do in their homes influencing their personal beliefs); and the Ruwaybidah will have a say.’ Someone asked, ‘Who are the Ruwaybidah?’ He said, ‘Those who rebel against Allah and will have a say in general affairs.'” (Ahmad.)
“Those who rebel against Allah” means they challenge him directly, they are the degenerate and depraved occultists now in charge of people who perform fowl acts to gain power and influence in the occult, if we are unfamiliar with this subject but believe it exists because the Quran says it exists, we need to only ask what a person needs to do to become proficient in dark magic, what depraved acts does he need to do to gain control of devils and command them against others, this state of affairs is mentioned in many prophecies we will cover later.
Other translations of the hadith have “vile men who control the general affairs” of the common people, the Ruwaybidah have remained after the dictators have left, they are the lowest of people who practice the occult being put in charge of the public in order to manipulate and manoeuvre the population away from their heritage to a way of life that is hedonistic and heathen in the guise of secularism, they forget that the Khalifah was largely secular in nature so this is nothing new to muslims, legislation was mostly in the hands of it’s scholars (the Madhhabs) not it’s rulers who had political authority they did not.
The prophet (saws) said: “No, no, the intellects of the general masses at that time will be deceived! They will be following fools that have no intellects themselves. They will be assuming they have a (legitimate) cause, but they will not have a (legitimate) cause.” (Ahmad, Ibn Majah, Ibn Hibban).
The muslim nations followed the ways of the Kufar blindly “you will follow the Jews and Christians in their ways even if they crawl down a lizard hole.” This occurred even though Secular countries all but lost their former identities as people in front of their eyes, they replaced culture with corporate advertising that has no real value in peoples lives except to exploit anything and everything for profit.
Many Ahadith indicate the timing of these events in relation to the Fitna’s that the prophet (saws) gave specific labels to like the Duhaima, of which we are only relating a few.
Imam Nu’aym ibn Hammad, who was one of Imam Bukhari’s teachers, in his work al Fitan narrated from Abu Hurayrah (ra) that he said: “The fourth fitna is blind and dark, rolling like the ocean. It will not leave a single house of the Arabs or the ‘Ajam without filling it with humiliation and fear. It will go around Sham, cover ‘Iraq, and batter the Jazirah with its hand and foot. During it, the Ummah will be torn by wars, and the tribulations will become so severe that right will be considered as wrong, and wrong will be considered as right. No one will be able to voice the least objection. Every time they resolve it in one place, it will afflict them with division in another place (the splitting up of entire societies). During it, a man will be a mu’min in the morning and become a kafir by the evening, and no one will be saved from it except one who supplicates like a person drowning in the ocean would supplicate. It will last for twelve years, then it will end when it ends, and the Euphrates will have uncovered a mountain of gold. They will fight over it until seven out of every nine are killed.”
Sham refers to greater Syria, present-day Palestine, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, and Sinai. Iraq refers to the southern area of the present-day state of Iraq. As for the Jazirah, this does not refer to the Arabian Peninsula, but rather to the area between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in the northern area of present-day Iraq and Syria.
The description given of the fourth fitna is fitnatul Duhaima which came after fitnatul Sarra, the first fitna is more than likely the Iran-Iraq War that began in 1980 and lasted for nearly a decade, shaping the Middle East at the beginning of the technological age we now live in. It is mentioned in other Ahadith by the prophet (saws), that war led to the the later three fitna’s directly.
These Ahadith indicate that the fourth fitna will be the last one to shape the world immediately before the coming of the Mahdi (ra) and the emergence of the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him), “(This will continue) until people will go to two Fustaats (groups) — the Fustaat of Eemaan (religion), in which there is no hypocrisy, and the Fustaat of hypocrisy, in which there is no Eemaan (religion). And when that will come to you (when the sorting of people into the camp with religion and the camp with no religion finally ends), wait for the Dajjaal on that day or on the morrow”.
The Prophet (saws) said “Then people will gather and agree upon a man, (but it will be an agreement that is) like a hip on a rib, (meaning this arrangement won’t last). Then there will be the Duhaima (the major corrupting event in the world that will lead to the Dajjal)”.
After the first Gulf War in the 90’s when sanctions were placed on Iraq people gathered around the Banner of Osama Bin Laden who was fighting against the oppression Muslims were facing in Iraq and elsewhere, this was before he was labeled a terrorist by the west, this arrangement soon ended when the Fitna of the Duhaima began on September the 11, 2001, with the destruction of the world trade towers that ended his support around the world.
In fact all the events mentioned are related to each other and were a cause for the fitna that came after it just like the prophet (saws) described the events of the hour will follow each other like beads falling from a string. The Iran Iraq war led to Fitnatul Ahlaas (Kuwait war) and that led to fitnatul Sarra (secrecy and espionage) which in turn led to fitnatul Duhaima, September the 11th.
When America wanted revenge they invaded Iraq to completely remove Saddam from power who they considered should have been removed in the first Gulf War, and Osama Bin Laden who had temporary Muslim support was blamed for the attack which is why the prophet (saws) mentioned all the events together in one Hadith along with the end result of splitting the Muslim world into two camps, as the west dominated muslim countries the world was forced to choose sides just as Islam and Christianity foretold.
The Duhaima, led to the invasion of Afghanistan, the second Invasion of Iraq and the humiliation of every Muslim on earth over the past decade as an entire religion and it’s people were demonized in the world media, a pretext for political gain considering Islam hasn’t had any representative government for almost a hundred years, it’s effects where greater than the sword testing the faith of every Muslim (“giving him a slap”).
As it’s description states it was a Dark Black & Cunning trial that caught people off guard, it’s effects were “blind and dark, rolling like the ocean (meaning continuously spreading around the world). It will not leave a single house of the Arabs or the ‘Ajam (non Arab Muslims) without filling it with humiliation and fear (which every Muslim lived through). It will go around Sham (local wars in Palestine, Syria, Jordan and Lebanon), cover ‘Iraq (the second Iraq war which led to it’s complete occupation and loss of independence), and batter the Jazirah with its hand and foot (an area that is heavily contested by many sides today). During it, the Ummah will be torn by wars…”It will last for twelve years, then it will end when it ends”.
“When it will be said that it is over, it will return” – When America invaded Iraq for many years people called for this war to end only to have it extend for nearly a decade while they looked on hopeless about stoping it, people did not know when it would end and it kept being prolonged by the west until people nearly gave up protesting it.
The major impact of this fitna are not the wars that resulted from it but the lasting impact it had on the world, ‘(This will continue) until people will go to two Fustaats (groups) — the Fustaat of Eemaan (religion), in which there is no hypocrisy, and the Fustaat of hypocrisy, in which there is no Eemaan (religion). And when that will come to you (when this sorting finally ends), wait for the Dajjaal on that day or on the morrow.’
The Duhaima began the division of the world into two camps one filled with Hypocrisy and no religion and the other filled with Iman, religion and no hypocrisy, this isn’t a reference to the devision of Muslim’s versus non Muslims this is a reference to the entire world, to people who hold on to good qualities versus those who choose evil in life (such as the ruwaybidah). It is a general characterization of the state of the world as we know it today after these events have shaped it, because the last fitna to occur in the Hadith, the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him), will come to test the entire world after the sorting ends and not just muslims.
The Duhaima, september the 11th, it’s ramifications are global and not just In Islam it is literally the event that will lead the world to the coming of the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him) because it decided the world into two camps this with religion and those without religion.
The Ahadith about events at the end of time take on a global nature because Allah will test the entire world with what is going to occur, initially they refer to Muslims but as we get closer to the Mahdi (ra) and the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him) they begin to refer to all people on earth.
One only need think back to the 80’s, 70’s and earlier to see a contrast between how people thought back then and now, the west was still considered Christian in those time’s and the east Buddhist, now those characterizing distinctions are deliberately being removed by the West and the Ruwaybidah, a foreign system being used in Muslim lands, hence the fitna of the Duhaima and what will result after it are the camps of those who have left morality and those who still hold on to it.
Abdullah ibn ‘Amr ibn Aas reported that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, “How will you (act) when the time draws near when people will be sifted (2001); the covenants (business) of people will be corrupted and the people will differ (sorted into two camps); then they will be like this,” and he intertwined his fingers (social media with the advent of the internet, and telecommunications technology). They said, “How should we (act), O Messenger of Allah?” He said, ” Take what you know to be good and leave what you repudiate; betake yourselves to your own private affairs and leave off the affairs of the general public.” (The responsibility forFard Kifaya, communal obligations, after 2001 is lifted from us) (Abu Dawood, Ibn Majah and Ahmad related the same Hadeeth through different chains).
Here the prophet (saws) described the modern era, “the covenants of people will be corrupted (business will be corrupt) and the people will differ (the sorting of people into two camps); then they will be like this, and he intertwined his fingers” indicating the Globalization of the world and people’s lives becoming connected to each other around the world through the internet, social media and all telecommunications technology and because of all this the prophet (saws) lifted the responsibility of Fard Kifaya, communal obligations, from muslims they won’t be asked about it on the day of judgment any longer.
There is a chronology to the prophet’s words the hadith begins with the sifting of people in 2001 with the September the 11 attacks, if we think back to how the World media was viewed before 2001, it was the ethical voice of the public that kept politician’s, corporations and corruption in society in check by reporting on it. We can then understand the significance of the prophets (saws) next words, “the covenants of people (their word and contract) will be corrupted” the reporter’s word was his career but this was destroyed after 2001 and reporters were no longer seen as trustworthy, a black spot was placed upon them that has never lifted.
Hence once the perceived moral voice of society was no longer moral or had any capacity to keep anyone in check, corporations, politicians and everyone else began to see that they could get away with what ever they liked, now you could manipulate anyone and everything.
“and the people will differ” this refers to the dividing effect of September the 11th, America during this time was accused of orchestrating the entire event because they could not provide clear evidence to justify their wars, or establish the guilt of people they accused in a court of Law. Saddam Hussein for instance had nothing to do with the attack, something they admitted later as if they had just realised it, yet Iraq was invaded for irrelevant political gain, hence the world media was used as a weapon of war and propaganda that would not critically investigate events or the corrupt governments behind everything.
“then they will be like this, and he intertwined his fingers”, peoples lives would become intertwined, it was around 2004 that the internet and mass telecommunication devices like mobile phones gained mass penetration, technology also made travel around the world easy and the world was explored and discovered like never before.
Globalization has never occurred before in history, technology and the Internet have allowed strangers living on the other side of the world to enter into peoples lives and homes on mass, where before the home protected the privacy of those living in them now every mobile phone and computer had a camera attached to it.
The Invasion of Afghanistan began in 2001 and Iraq followed soon after, the Arab countries (Sham) were all torn by a number of wars during this time, wars in Lebanon, Palestine, Syria and eventually the Syrian civil war in 2012. The fitna of the Duhaima lasted for 12 years, the pull out of troops from Afghanistan eventually began in 2013 and ended in 2014.
This is the sorting of People into two camps mentioned in the Ahadith, people first began to take sides on the events surrounding September the 11th, then this continued to spread to other areas of life until it became clear who was corrupt and had no religion and who wasn’t as pressure was put on people to take sides in their work and lives.
The prophet (saws) mentioned the sorting of people at the beginning of a number of Ahadith because he was telling us how we could know which war in Syria he was referring to, and in three narration’s he (saws) indicated it to be a civil war after the spetember the 11 attack, described as the sorting or sifting of people.
The Duhaima’s occurrence was before the war in Sham and led to it in 2012, it changed the world in a unique way, the Dictators after it were no longer seen as absolute Authorities in their countries it also lead to the next event on the string of beads, the complete removal of the era of dictators with the Arab spring, or the flood as the prophet (saws) called it.
The Prophet (saws) said during the time of the Duhaima “do not rebuke the people of Syria rather, rebuke the evil people among them, because amongst them are the Abdals (Awliya or Saints)”. The Evil people among them are the Baath Party of Bashar al Asad, meaning during these 12 years you would see them do reprehensible things that you would want to curse the people of Syria over, this was the case regarding a number of issues in the region like Lebanon, but the prophet (saws) advised that we should only curse those who are evil and not the entire population itself.
The Baath Party of Syria is the same Baath party Saddam Husain belonged to, who similarly used spying and espionage to subvert and oppress the population, Bashar al Asad belonged to a minority sect of people who ruled Syria, they made up less than 23% of the countries population and were placed in power after WW1 by the French, having an even smaller population at the time.
The prophet (saws) goes on to say “Allah will send a flood from Heaven (an event) that will disperse their groups in a way that if foxes were to attack them they would be victorious”.
The flood that would be sent was the “Arab spring” that swept across the entire Muslim world removing every dictator from power effectively ending the Era of Dictators in Muslim lands, it came to Syria last and began the Civil War…“Then there will be tyrannical (forceful) kingship (the era of dictators) and it will remain for as long as Allah wills it to remain.Then He will raise it when He wills to raise it.”
Bashar al Asad is the last of the old dictators in the muslim world, once his rule ends this will be the end of the Baath party that spread Fitnatul Sarra (the corruption of espionage secrecy) into the muslim world, this isn’t to say the muslim Ummah wont see any more dictators, Ahadith clearly mention them but they will all be short lived not lasting more than a few years, they are more accurately war lords, waging short lived wars before being defeated as the prophet (saws) stated.
Rather the era of dictators ending means that this form of governing in the Muslim world wont appear every where again as it once did after WW1, the hadith is a characterization of the Ummah through out it’s history.
The prophet (saws) said “that will disperse their groups”, the civil war dispersed Syria’s groups into factions, some fighting for the people of Syria, some fighting for Asad and some joining the terrorist factions fighting for themselves. This dispersion the prophet (saws) said about it “that if foxes were to attack them they would be victorious”.
This characterization is an indication of the type of event the flood would be and is unique in it’s description among all the wars mentioned by the prophet (saws), “Allah will send a flood from Heaven (an event) that will disperse their groups” the flood would disperse their groups into factions indicating this event would cause in fighting, a civil war, and it wont be an invading Army, otherwise the prophet (saws) would have clearly mentioned it is an Army invading Syria, the flood is a metaphor for a movement (an intellectual event) that would be a catalyst for the splitting of the people into factions.
When the people of Syria saw how all the other dictators around the world had fallen this gave them motivation to likewise do the same and take back their country.
To understand who the foxes are we have to look at the factions fighting in Syria, Bashar al Asad is one faction, Hizb Allah is another, Al Qaeda and ISIS are two factions with two distinct leaders and groups, and the people of Syria make up the remaining factions.
Edward Snowden was a former system administrator for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and a counterintelligence trainer at the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), he later worked for the private intelligence contractor Dell inside an NSA outpost in Japan, in March 2013, he joined a consulting firm inside the NSA centre in Hawaii.
In June 2013, he came to international attention after disclosing to several media outlets thousands of classified documents that he acquired while working as an NSA contractor. Snowden’s leaked documents revealed numerous global surveillance programs, many of them run by the NSA and the “Five Eyes”, an intelligence alliance comprising Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States, with the cooperation of telecommunication companies around the world and European governments.
This leak came on the heels of the earlier leak by Wiki Leaks of the files now known as the Spy Files which initially brought attention to the existence of these surveillance programs that intercepted the complete communications of entire populations, it was a secret new industry spanning 25 countries that began in September 2001.
Wiki Leaks, a journalistic organization used by whistle blowers to publish secret information, news leaks, and classified media from anonymous sources to bring to light corruption around the world, began releasing a database of hundreds of documents containing information about various operations from as many as 160 intelligence contractors in the mass surveillance industry.
The documents leaked by Edward Snowden, now reported by various media outlets around the world, revealed who the foxes are that the prophet (saws) mentioned in the Ahadith.
The NSA documents revealed that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the terrorist group ISIS was trained by Mossad, with the help of US and UK intelligence officials. The US, UK and Israel drew up a plan to protect the Zionist entity, by using a strategy called “the hornet’s nest”.
NSA documents refer to the implementation of the hornet’s nest as a strategy by which all terrorists could be gathered together in one place by creating religious and Islamic slogans that would attract them such as the re-establishment of the long lost Islamic Khalifa, in other terms a false cause that would rally extremists in one place in order to engage them in a war away from Israel by turning their attention elsewhere.
In the documents leaked by Snowden, it was revealed that ISIS was made for “the protection of the Jewish state” in order to keep the enemies of Israel engaged, in other words so they would waste their resources elsewhere and effectively spend what ever strength they have.
Snowden’s leak also revealed that ISIS leader and cleric Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was given intensive military training for a whole year by Mossad, besides lessons on Islamic Law, theology and public speaking.
Media outlets similarly reported that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi appointed an Australian Muslim with extensive links to the Australian Secret Service to the post of military commander.
The Australian began his mission by beheading four Muslim detainees from other armed factions who refused to swear allegiance to al-Baghdadi as the Khalifa, they were said to be from the other Al Qaeda faction who began fighting with ISIS soon after they declared them self the new “Khalifah of the Islamic World”, ISIS has since become famous for it’s beheadings.
Edward Snowden stated that Baghdadi who was Born to (Arab) Jewish parents was a Mossad agent whose real name is Elliot Shamon, he is pictured with American senator John McCain having high profile meetings on how to proceed in Syria.
Many scholars from within the salafi moment itself have long since warned about their movement being infiltrated and manipulated to create factions within factions as far back as 1998 like Naasir al Deen Albani one of their main scholars when the movement existed in “simpler” times and was more “clear” in its aims. But it’s more accurate to say these scholars were handpicked from obscurity as the leaders of their groups because they were successfully miseducated in order to spread their less than scholarly ideas, this is very evident from Albani’s own work because he quotes al Manar magazine often and claims it was one of the greatest influences on his life, the magazine was written by Jamal al Deen Afghani (d.1897) who was responsible for the foreign backed separatists groups in Egypt that brought down the government and handed it over to the British for colonisation at the turn of the last century, and Muhammad Abduh (d.1905) who forcibly placed himself as the head of al Azhar university, until his death, with the backing of the British in order to pass the Shariah ruling that riba (interest on loans) was permissible so British Banks could dominate Egypt into the next century and buy out the suez canal which helped the British Empire dominate the entire world.
The prophet (saws) said “that if foxes were to attack them (the dispersed groups of Syria) they would be victorious”, in 2014 the foxes (ISIS) attacked and were victorious against the people of Syria claiming a small territory after which they declared they had re-established the Islamic Khalifah with this small patch of land alone, only to be later found out they are MOSSAD agents, their idiotic claims should be self evident because people don’t go to war because they think a small patch of land in Syria is the re-establishment of the Khalifah for the entire muslim world.

It is absurd that this is a serious and rational claim or that they even took it in such a manner themselves, rather their ulterior lessor motives are clear in it’s absurdity, these are men who know how to effectively lead men during war, so their capacity to organize, plan and deceive is established, the Prophet (saws) himself said ‘War is Deception’, this same statement was later repeated by Tsun Tzu in his famous book ‘The Art of War’.
This is the current state of the war in Syria, attention is focused on the foxes (ISIS), The messenger of Allah (saws) goes on to say “Then Allah will send a man from the perfumed musked children of the Messenger”, this is not the Mahdi (r.a) but a person from Ahl al Bayt (the prophets descendants) who will lead the people of Syria.
“They will be killed, defeated, then the Hashimite will appear, so Allah will restore unity and favors to the people and this will be the case until the Dajjaal (the lying, false messiah) comes” The Hashimi (which is his lineage from Bani Hashim) as it is mentioned later in other narration’s is called “al Mansur”. He is General of the Army that will come from the East carrying black flags in order to establish the dominion of the Mahdi (ra), before he emerges, the Hadith is saying shortly after the civil war in Syria ends the river Euphrates will dry up and the Black flags will come from the east conquering Arabia and Israel, when muslims see this unity will again return to the hearts of muslims and it will remain like this until the Dajjal (Allah’s curse be upon him) appears.
The prophet (saws) call’s al Mansur the Hashimi in a number of narration’s, this is one of the most significant events in not only Islam but Christianity as well (discussed later), because according to them Allah will send the six Angel of the Apocalypse to dry up the river euphrates to prepare the way for them to march across Arabia conquering it and Jerusalem.
Europe will come to dominate the world this is evident in Ahadith because they will be the ones to place sanctions on Syria and not America and the Great war Armageddon will be between the Muslim’s and Europe, America by this point in time is not mentioned at all by the prophet (saws) because Europe would have taken it place from it as the dominant power.
Many narration’s once chronological arranged show how specific the prophet (saws) was, mentioning the major events of each decade in order, the following narration begins in the 70’s and spans nearly 50 years into our time. Imam ibn Hammad narrated from Ka’b: “There will be, after the fitnah in ash-Sham (Lebanese Civil war 76-90 and Ikhwan uprising in Syria 79-82), the eastern one which will be the destruction of the Kings and the Humiliation of the Arabs (the Duhaima, sep 11th, when the destruction of the Arabs began with their loss of independence and vilification, this state will continue), until the people of the Maghrib (Morocco, Tunisia, etc) come out”. (Which will occur after the Black flags come form the east, as many Ahadith state). (Nu’aym ibn Hammad, Kitab al-Fitan, No. 53)
The current civil war in Syria was allowed to occur by Allah, it was sent to lift the era of dictators from the muslim world, this is regardless of which foreign groups are involved in it, as the famous hadith of Rasul Allah (saws) states ‘Allah may help this Deen with an Evil person’. Hence the fitna mentioned in the above hadith has to refer to when the prophet (saws) said fitna would be going around Sham before settling on Iraq, the fitna began with the Arab Israeli conflict in 1967 which was followed by the Lebanese Civil War between 1976 and 1990, and during that time the Ikhwan (Muslim Brotherhood) attempted to take control of Syria between 1979 and 1982.
It began to move to Iraq with the Iran and Iraq war but settled there in 1990 with the Kuwait war which was followed by the Sanctions being placed on Iraq for the next decade, once events settled over Iraq we saw the Fitnatul Ahlasss and Fitnatul Sarra occur which affected the Ummah at large, during this time the prophet (saws) said the muslim Ummah, “they have taken their leave”, their existence and non existence amounts to the same thing.
Allah will rally the people of Sham around one of the descendants of the prophet (saws) at the end of this Civil War, He Will engage the people of 7 Banner’s having seven different leaders in a Battle amongst approximately 12-15,000 soldiers under three different banners (battalions) and their password or saying is ‘Die, die!’, meaning to the Death.
It is clear from these Ahadith the only people who are going to win are the people of Syria. While the people of Sham will have one leader and under him are three different banners, those who oppose them are clearly 7 different Banners with 7 different and distinct leaders, all of whom are seeking control of Syria.
The 7 Banners and their leaders are Bashar al Asad (1), Hizb Allah (2), al Qaeda are two distinct groups (ISIS and al Qaeda) with two different leaders (3,4), and 2 groups from the people of Syria have joined al Qaeda and their groups (5,6), making that 6 Banners so far, it was reported that 3 groups from Syria joined al Qaeda but this isn’t confirmed yet as the war hasn’t reached it’s conclusion the seventh group may be a super power or Iran or Turkey, what is clear is that each of these groups has it’s own leader with his own aspirations and plans, while the people of Syria are united in a single war against all of them, exactly as the hadith states.
When ISIS claimed to have won and established the Khalifah they were about 10,000 fighters in that war, “They will be killed, defeated, then the Hashimite will appear, so Allah will restore unity and favors to the people and this will be the case until the Dajjaal (the lying, false messiah) comes.”
Allah will kill all these different factions and restore unity to the hearts of the Muslims so the next phase of Islamic Governance can begin, a Khalifah underneath the Mahdi (ra).
The Mahdi (ra) as other Ahadith indicate will appear after sanctions are placed on Egypt like they were placed on Iraq, these Ahadith mention that other specific events must occur first, like the black banners coming from the east (Afghanistan and it’s surrounding areas) who will march across Arab lands conquering them until they finally take Jerusalem and give control of it after six years to the Mahdi (ra), He will emerge while there is a civil war raging in Saudi Arabia.
The Prophet Muhammad (saws) said: Black Flags will appear from Khorasan (Afghanistan and the surrounding areas), Nothing will will stop them until they will be placed at Elya (the Holy Land of Jerusalem) (Mustadrak Hakim Hadith 8531. 2 Masnad Ahmad Volume 4,Hadith 1599).
Abd Allah said, Whilst we were with the Prophet, some young men from Banu Hashim approached us. When the Prophet saw them, his eyes filled with tears and the colour of his face changed. I said, We can see something has changed in your face, and it upsets us. The Prophet said, We are the people of a Household for whom Allah has chosen the Hereafter rather than this world. The people of my Household (Banu Hashim) will suffer a great deal after my death, and will be persecuted until a people carrying black banners will come out of the east. They will instruct the people to do good, but the people will refuse; they will fight until they are victorious, and the people do as they asked, but they will not accept it from them until they hand over power to a man from my household. Then the earth will be filled with fairness, just as it had been filled with injustice. If any of you live to see this, you should go to him (the Mahdi) even if you have to crawl across ice.” (Sunan Ibn Majah (Kitab-al-fitan) Hadith 4082).
In this hadith is the reason why Allah will destroy the Arabs, the black flags will come from the east conquering Arab lands, they will instruct them to act according to Islam but the Arabs will refuse to Accept Islam so they will defeat them, afterwards Allah will only leave 1/3 of them alive before the Mahdi (ra) emerges driving many from their home lands due to prolonged war. The phrasing in the earlier hadith. “the destruction of the Kings” is the prophet (saws) announcing when the end of the Saudi Kingdom would begin and what it’s will be, it is the Kingdom in charge of the Holy Lands and in many Ahadith referring to Saudi Arabia shortly after a civil war among three of their present rulers son’s, the Saudi Kingship would come to an end.
September the 11, Fitnatul Duhaima, is the worst fitna to befall the world before the emergence of the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him), the prophet (saws) said it is “…a trial that will take place in my nation – it is the greatest of them” (Ahmad), it’s effects will continue to increase in waves dividing mankind into two camps, the prophet (saws) called it the era of evil and advised that all good deeds should be performed before it’s arrival, “Perform all good deeds before the era of evil dawns” because after the world is split into two camps the camp of hypocrites with no religion will stop all people from trying to do any good in the world so they con dominate the world, this is the camp of secularism, Atheism and the occult.
The intensity of the evil that will emerge during this time will stop mankind as a whole from being able to perform any good, corruption will spread intensely during it and man will be forced to choose safety over charity and open kindness, because he wont know the person who he is dealing with and would fear him, its effects will corrupt the entire world as all forms of harmful acts spread, destroying the meaning and fabric of society, and in fact we have seen this with the unprecedented rate of consumption of alcohol, drugs and pornography and everything else that man can do to his body.
The prophet (saws) described it’s severity in corrupting mankind in this way “tribulations will become so severe that right will be considered as wrong, and wrong will be considered as right. No one will be able to voice the least objection. Every time they resolve it in one place, it will afflict them with division in another place. During it, a man will be a mu’min in the morning and become a kafir in the evening, and no one will be saved from it except one who supplicates like a person drowning in the ocean would supplicate”, and He (saws) advised people regarding it in the following way ” They said, “How should we (act), O Messenger of Allah?” He said, ” Take what you know to be good and leave what you repudiate; betake yourselves to your own private affairs and leave off the affairs of the general public”, Fard Kifaya, community obligations are no longer mandatory on people, don’t involve your selves with the ruwaybidah, their people and any public or community affairs they will be dominated by muslims who are kufar, they have joined the camp of the Hypocrites, the West and their Allies, and have apostated from the Deen because of it, ‘their camp will be filled with Hypocrites and no Iman’ (religion) meaning they are no longer Muslims.
The devision of this fitna will continue to increase in severity until the Dajjaal (Allah’s curse be upon him) emerges, the effects of these evils will be so grave and cause such doubt in man that a person would wake up as a Mu’min (Muslim) and become a Kaafir by night, or be a Mu’min (Muslim) at night and become a Kaafir by the morning, in this statement from the prophet (saws) is the affirmation that the camp of the Hypocrites is using the occult because the last time the world saw such quick transformations in people was when Christian Germany adopted the occult Nazi Party, many prophecies which we will quote later also state this literally.
The second half of the statement is also an indication of the kind of lives people will live at night, this was not common in mankind before our era, people used to stay at home at night and not venture out, we see that in every subtle phrase of the prophet (saws) is a prophecy regarding what will occur.
A person will sell his Deen (way of life) in lieu of a paltry sum, and indeed we have seen this with people joining the camp of the hypocrites or coming under the control of the Ruwaybidah and more recently with people openly denouncing Islam in order to promote a book they have written, this would not have been conceivable 30 years ago, but the atmosphere September the 11th caused around the world changed people’s perception of the world and placed mankind on a path ending with only one event, the Dajjal (Allah’s curse be upon him).
