JERUSALEM IN THE QUR’AN

THE QUR’ÂN
AND THE
DESTINY OF
JERUSALEM
“
…. but if ye revert (to your violation of the condition imposed for inheritance
of the Holy Land) We shall revert (to Our punishments. i.e., you will be
expelled again and again) . . .”
(Qur’an,
Banu Israil, 17:8)
Prophet Muhammad said: “Prophethood will last
among you as long as Allah wishes it to last, and then Allah will raise it.
Afterwards there will be the Khilafah according to the ways of the Prophethood
as long as Allah wishes to last, then Allah will raise it. Afterwards there
will be hereditary rule (by consent) and it will last as long as Allah wishes,
then Allah will raise it. Afterwards there will be biting oppression and it
will last as long as Allah wishes, then Allah will raise it. Afterwards there
will be a Khilafah according to the ways of Prophethood and then the Prophet
was silent"
(Musnad, Ahmad bin Hanbal)
After punishing the Jews by expelling them from the Holy
Land for a second time, Allah Most High declared His intention to keep on
punishing them if they kept on desecrating the Holy Land with violations of the
condition of faith and righteous conduct:
“…but if ye revert (to your violation of the condition imposed
for inheritance of the Holy Land) We shall revert (to Our punishments, i.e.,
you will be expelled again and again)….”
(Qur’an, Banu Israil, 17:8)
The destiny of Jerusalem is plainly written in the above
warning in the Qur’an. Regardless of agreements negotiated between the
secular nationalist representatives of the Palestinian people and the secular
nationalist European Jewry who presume to represent the Israelite ‘seed’ of
Abraham (‘alaihi al-Salam), Banu Israil, the destiny of Jerusalem
is plainly visible in the context of the godlessness, decadence and oppression
now polluting the Holy Land. The most extraordinary is the state of godlessness
and the abandonment of the religious way of life. A recent editorial in the Jerusalem
Post has this to say: For too many Israelis,
Jewishness has become an archaic, primitive, and irrelevant system that
competes for power and funding, and even a source of embarrassment for an
intellectually-oriented modern society (Jerusalem Post, September 12, 2000).
Among the Divine ‘Signs’ shown to Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu
‘alaihi wa sallam) during his miraculous visit to Jerusalem was revealed to
him the destiny of Jerusalem. Not surprisingly this matter seems to have
escaped the attention of Daniel Pipes, who, like so many other Jews, seems not
to hear the ‘stones’ of the intifada that have already begun
to speak in the Holy Land.
The Qur’an has clearly established a destiny of
Jerusalem that would witness Muslims resuming their rule over Jerusalem which began shortly after the death of
the Prophet (sallalahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), and continuing uninterruptedly
for a few hundred years. When the Euro-Christian crusaders conquered Jerusalem
they were allowed a brief rule of about eighty years before the destiny of
Jerusalem prevailed. A Muslim army defeated the Crusaders and the rule of
Muslims over the Holy Land was resumed. Again, it continued uninterruptedly for
a few hundred years until when, by Divine plan, the Jews were to be brought
back to the Holy Land. It is hardly likely that the present Jewish rule would
last for more than eighty years, and Allah Knows best. A Muslim army will then
defeat the Jews, and Muslim rule will be restored. Allah Most High declared as
much when He spoke in the Qur’an:
“Allah has promised to those among you who believe (in Islam)
and are righteous in conduct that He will surely cause them to inherit the land
(i.e., the Holy Land), as He granted it to those before them (i.e., the Jews);
that He will establish their religion (i.e., Islam) in authority (in the Holy
Land), the (religion) which He has chosen for them (see Qur’an, al-Maidah,
5:3); and that He will change (their state) after the fear in which they
(lived) to one of security and peace: ‘They will worship Me (alone) and not
associate aught with Me.’ If any do reject faith after this they are rebellious
and wicked.”
(Qur’an, al-Nur, 24:55)
When the Qur’an referred to the state of fear in
which the believers live it must surely include the present awesome Israeli oppression
in the Holy Land. The Qur’anic verse also makes clear that the only Muslims who
will participate in the coming inheritance
of the Holy Land are those who worship Allah alone and who do not commit Shirk.
The PLO has no part of that community of those who remain faithful to Allah,
Most High.
This promise of the Qur’an is also confirmed by the
Prophet (‘alaihi al-Salam) in the following Hadith:
“Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet
(‘alaihi al-Salam) said: Black banners shall emerge from Khorasan (i.e. an area
which is now included in Afghanistan, Pakistan and a little in Iran and Central
Asia), and no force will be able to stop them until they are inserted in Aelia (Jerusalem).”
(Sunan Tirmidhi)
The Qur’an also provides the moral justification for
that ‘armed struggle’. The God of Abraham Himself declared that He has
authorized warfare for the purpose of responding to oppression which witnesses
a people being driven out of their homes and out of the land in which they live
for no just cause other than that they are Muslims:
“To those against whom war is made, permission is given (to
fight), because they are wronged; and verily, Allah is Most Powerful for their
aid; “(They are) those who have been expelled from their homes in defiance of
right, (for no cause) except that they say, "Our Lord is Allah.”
(Qur’an, al-Hajj, 22:39-40)
It is the destiny of Jerusalem that a Muslim army will
destroy the State of Israel and the Messiah (Jesus the son of Mary) will then rule
over mankind from Jerusalem as a Just Ruler. Jesus,
the Messiah (‘alaihi al-Salam), would ‘rule’ the world from the Islamic
State that would be established in the Holy Land at that time and in place of
the imposter Zionist Jewish State of Israel.
It is also the destiny of Jerusalem that before the above
can occur the Jewish State of Israel must become the ‘ruling state’ of
the world. Israel will ‘rule’ over the world for a period of a day that would be like a week.
At the end of that period the False Messiah would then himself appear with his
day like our day. At that time the water in the Sea of Galillee would have
dried up. Dajjal would ‘rule’ the world from Jerusalem and so fulfil his
mission of impersonating the true Messiah. After Dajjal appears in
person it is then that Imam al-Mahdi will appear.
The Prophet (sallalahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) spoke about
this event in the following Hadith:
“Prophet Muhammad said: Prophethood will last
among you as long as Allah wishes it to last, and then Allah will raise it.
Afterwards there will be the Khilafah according to the ways of the Prophethood
as long as Allah wishes to last, then Allah will raise it. Afterwards there
will be hereditary rule (by consent) and it will last as long as Allah wishes,
then Allah will raise it. Afterwards there will be biting oppression and it
will last as long as Allah wishes, then Allah will raise it. Afterwards there
will be a Khilafah according to the ways of Prophethood and then the Prophet
was silent"
(Musnad Ahmad bin Hambal)
Dajjal would
attack the Imam in Damascus, and Jesus the true Messiah, would then descend
and kill Dajjal the false Messiah. After Dajjal is killed
it would be at that time that the last of Y’ajuj and M’ajuj are
released and they pass by the Sea of Galillee declaring, “there used to be water here”. Y’ajuj and M’ajuj
would pursue Jesus the Messiah to a mountain in Jerusalem and Allah would
command Jesus to climb the mountain. Y’ajuj and M’ajuj would then
boast that they have killed those who are on earth and they now turn to kill
those who are in the heavens. They shoot their arrows up into the sky and Allah
allows the arrows to return with blood upon them. Jesus the Messiah would then
pray to Allah to destroy Y’ajuj and M’ajuj and Allah would destroy
them with insects that attack them at the back of their necks.
When Y’ajuj and M’ajuj are destroyed the
dominant ‘white world order’ will crumble and the modern world of scientific
and technological wonders will collapse. This book anticipates that that event
is not more than another fifty years away. It is at that time that the Muslim
army would emerge from Khorasan
and would then face the Jews on a level battle field. The Prophet (sallalahu
‘alaihi wa sallam) declared in a Hadith that is located in both Sahih
Bukhari and Sahih Muslim that Muslims would then fight the Jews.
Here are his words:
“You will surely fight the Jews, and you will
surely kill them. (And this will continue) until (even) the stones will speak
(saying): Oh Muslim! There is Jew hiding behind me so come and kill him.”
(Sahih, Bukhari)
“Narrated Abu Hurairah: Allah’s Messenger
said: The Last Hour would not come unless the Muslims fight against the Jews.
The Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone
or a tree, and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah,
there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say
(such), for it is the tree of the Jews.”
(Sahih Muslim)
It is a very simple matter indeed to eliminate those
scholars of Islam who are incapable of providing true guidance in this age.
They would be scholars who would never, or hardly ever, publicly quote the
above Hadith.
The destiny of Jerusalem is such as to give to Muslims the
greatest confidence and hope that Truth
will triumph over falsehood and oppression.
