2. Who then will be the REAL Antichrist and could Muslims and Christians fight on the opposite sides of the final battle of good and evil or will they join forces and fight on the same side against the real Antichrist forces? Will the Antichrist deny the Sonship and Crucifixion of Jesus Christ or will the Antichrist be the one-eyed Al-Maseeh Al-Dajjaal? Which prophecy will you now trust? Beloved, as was clearly demonstrated previously, any wise person would know that they would be condemning their eternity to hell if they foolishly still trust Islamic prophecies, after they have evidently been proven to be largely a shameful corruption of Bible prophecy from the book of Revelation. How could Muslims and Christians fight on the same side IF: 1. they are polar opposite, not just in their knowledge of the the Antichrist but of the Christ. The word 'Antichrist' originates from 'Christ' (to IMITATE or to be AGAINST Christ). 2. they do not believe in the same God. The claims which Allah (QS 29:46) and the God of the Bible (the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) make about themselves are so HOSTILE to each other for them to be the same God (even though they both call themselves GOD and declare that they are ONE). Yet there can only be one true God, not two. The result is that IF both Christian and Islamic eschatology are fulfilled, the one who will be Al-Maseeh to one religion, will be Al-Maseeh Al-Dajjaal to the other (the REAL one, not the one-eyed one!). In a sense, Al Mahdi (whom it is said will be superior to Isa, is regarded as a sort of "Messianic deliverer" or "savior") is Al Messiah to Islam-an IMITATION of the attributes reserved for Al Maseeh, Jesus Christ. It is believed Al Mahdi will bring "peace and justice" to the world. Who then will be the REAL Antichrist? Could EITHER the appearing Jesus Christ the Son of God or the Mahdi be ANTICHRIST to the opposing religion? The scale of the deception which began generations ago is such that Christians and Muslims each believe to worship the creator of the heavens and the earth, with Muslims believing that Allah of the Qur’an is this creator who sent the previous scriptures (QS 5:44-47) and that the final prophet is found in the previous scriptures (QS 7:157 and 61:6). However, the previous scriptures state clearly that John the Baptist was the end of the law (the Old Covenant) and the last of prophets (Luke 16:16). What was his prophecy? He prophesied about the coming of the "one who is MORE POWERFUL than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire." (Matthew 3:11). So there was to be no final revelation through a prophet after the Gospels, for God in the "past spoke through the prophets" but "has in the last days spoken through his Son" (Hebrews 1:1-2) A disturbing prophecy which shows that the two religions are not of the SAME God and why one of the religions will fight AGAINST the Antichrist forces and the other FOR the Antichrist forces is the prophecy of the "Beast from the Earth". [NOTE: in Bible terms, a beast is a personality who has rule over the world] The ORIGINAL prophecy of the beast from the earth is recorded in the book of Revelations (13:10-18) which speaks of Satan (long disguised as God) and his Antichrist system prevailing in the last 7 years of the world [Daniel's one week prophecy: one day for a year prophecy=7 years (Daniel 9:27)]. The SECOND "Beast" (the beast from the earth) of the last 7 years will deceive and cause as many to receive the MARK of the FIRST beast (Antichrist) on the forehead. Only those having the mark of the Antichrist will be allowed to BUY and SELL (Revelations 13:16-18). Those who believe Jesus as the Son of God will refuse the mark and they will be beheaded for their faith, and received with glory in the kingdom of God (Rev 20:4). But God will condemn to HELL those who will receive the mark of the beast (Revelations 14:9-10) because they disbelieved that Jesus is the Son of God [as confirmed in the old testament (Daniel 7:13-14 or Isaiah 9:6)] and worshipped the false god of this world instead Surprisingly, Islam/the Islamic Caliphate (like the Antichrist system) will also prevail in the last 7 years (Sunan Abi Dawud). Strangely, the Qur’an (27:82) and hadith "beast from the earth" prophecy (which is a corruption of Revelation 13:10-18) instruct Muslims to do the OPPOSITE! They must receive the mark from the "Beast from the Earth" or Dābbat al-Arḍ (Sunan Ibn Majah 4066 and Musnad Aḥmad 22309) and they will be allowed to BUY or SELL and be marked as the believers of Allah and will go to HEAVEN. [see video link of the Islamic Mark of the Beast (presented by Muslim) in the 4th "chapter" of this article] Which of the two prophecies will you trust? This obvious contradiction shows plainly and certainly, that Allah of the Qur’an and the God of the Bible are NOT the same God. One is Satan disguised as the true God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. IF the opposing hadith beast prophecy, copied and misrepresented from the book of Revelation is fulfilled, could Islam be the Antichrist religion of the last 7 years, before the return of the true Jesus, which will behead (Revelations 13:15 and QS8:12-13) those who do not believe in its god and refuse to make allegiance to the Antichrist? Beheaded will be those who refuse to receive the mark of the beast reserved for the believers in Allah. The contradicting prophecies between Christianity and Islam are NOT just down to 'matters over which we used to differ' and which Allah of the Qur’an will "inform" us of when we "return" to him or different "communities" competiting in "good deeds" with each community having been given its own "code of law" (QS 5:48). Is God the author of confusion that he should give one truth but different communities of faith competing from different standards of good deeds? To me my religion to you yours? With the true God, there is one TRUTH and one WAY to eternal LIFE (John 14:6) There is a WAY that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of DEATH. (Proverbs 14:12) Instead, the contradicting prophecies have come about as a result of the deception by Satan who desires to be worshipped disguised as a god of "righteous deeds"-the god of RIGHTEOUSNESS and LIGHT. How? Do Muslims know that Satan is the angel that God cast down to the earth and is the false god of righteousness of this world who came disguised as an ANGEL of LIGHT to his SERVANT? 600 years before the mysterious ANGEL and the SERVANT of Allah, Muhammad, met in a cave, the apostles wrote a letter to Christians at Corinth, warning: "And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an ANGEL of LIGHT. So it is no surprise if his SERVANTS, also, disguise themselves as SERVANTS of RIGHTEOUSNESS. Their end will correspond to their deeds. 2 Corinthians 11:14‭-‬15 Don't be deceived by a religion declaring itself a religion of righteous deeds: praying (to him as God), giving money to the poor and warning against sin. for Satan mixes good with evil inorder to deceive. Satan's religion is an imitation of and deceptively similar to the religion of the true God. A fake $100 bill must look like the original for it to have any chance of deceiving the receiver. Satan is the master of deception and is disguised as the one God, not Satan (Isaiah 14:12-14) and desires to be worshipped (Matthew 1:9). It makes sense that Satan will disguise himself as God and even warn against himself inorder to deceive you and hide his true identity. Satan has deceived billions away from worshipping the true God and into committing idolatry by worshipping him instead.

[@TheWatchmanWebsite]

3. Was the angel which the SERVANT of Allah met the same ANGEL, Gabriel, of the Bible? Without a doubt, the ANGEL the SERVANT met in a cave was NOT the angel Gabriel of the Bible. If not, who was it? It was Satan himself disguised as an angel of LIGHT (QS 24:35 and 33:46). The creature pressed Muhammad’s chest tightly such that he thought he was going to die and his first impression was that he was demon possessed. At no point did the mysterious angel introduce itself to Muhammad as Jibreel. It was his wife Kaddijah (on the advice of Ibn Neafal her cousin) who convinced Muhammad that he had met Jibreel and Muhammad then went along with the name. Jibreel was not witnessed by anyone else except Muhammad. According to Muhammad's own testimony, he thought the angel was demonic. IBN Ishaq 106, al Tabari vol 6,7071.There is no evidence of Muhammad ever meeting his god, Allah. In the bible the angel was witnessed in the Jewish scripture (Tanakh) by Daniel, and in the Gospels by John the Baptist's father (Zachariahs), Joseph and Mary. The message in BOTH the Jewish scripture and the Gospels was the SAME (the Son of God who would have an everlasting kingdom and be worshipped by the nations (Daniel 9:13-14 and Luke 1:31-33) but Jibreel of the Qur'an OPPOSED this gospel message. The apostles also warned: '.. even if we or an ANGEL from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! Galatians 1:8 The message of the Qur'an about Jesus Christ which the "ANGEL from heaven" (Jibreel) and the Servant of Allah brought through the Qur'an [such as that Allah made it to appear like Jesus was crucified (QS 4:157) or that he is just a prophet and not the Son of God (QS 19:91-92)], is a corruption and NOT the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God crucified on the cross and preached for 600 years before Muhammad. God cast Satan to the earth because he corrupted his own wisdom (Ezekiel 28:17). Satan is the father of deception, corruption and lies (John 8:44) IF Islamic prophecy is fulfilled, could it be Islam that goes to war against a returning Jesus Christ the Son of God at the battle of Armageddon? (NOT against the mythical one-eyed Al-Maseeh Al-Dajjaal). You may think this is a bold claim but it will be Islam that will bring "fitnah" upon the world, because the REAL crisis which will bring war upon the face of the earth in the end times will be the CROSS and the DIVINITY of JESUS CHRIST! The Armageddon or Al-Malhama Al-Kubra account of the hadiths is copied and a corruption of the Armageddon account first and only narrated in the New Testament book of Revelation (chapter 16:12-16). So who will the ANTICHRIST be? Could the Mahdi, regarded as a "messianic deliverer" (an imitation of the title of Jesus Christ the Son of God), by the true definition of the term 'antichrist', be the antichrist to Christians and could the returning Jesus Christ, the Son of God crucified on the cross be antichrist to Muslims? What is the definition of an antichrist? The term 'antichrist' was first ever used and first defined in the Gospels 600 years before Islam. The apostles warned that the ANTICHRIST would DENY that Jesus is the Son of God. Terrifyingly, the Qur'an teaches exactly that: MUSLIMS also DENY that Jesus is the Son of God. (If you believe the false claim of the Qur'an that Allah sent the Gospels, Allah confirms the Gospels as his unchangeable (incorruptible word)[18:27 and 6:115] which the Christians "have between their hands" in the 7TH CENTURY and should judge themselves by. (QS 5:43, 5:47, 5:68, 3:3-4, and 7:157). It's the Qur'an's dilemma. DEFINITION OF "ANTICHRIST" "Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is ANTICHRIST who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also." [1John 2:22‭-‬23] If you deny that Jesus is the Son of God, the spirit of antichrist already dwells in you (1 John 4:3) "The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them." John 3:35‭-‬36 Satan will have authority and power in the last days. This will come as a shock to Muslims but IF Islamic eschatology is FULFILLED, based on the antichrist definition as was originally used 600 years before Muhammad, the MAHDI -helped by the uncrucified false Prophet Isa-will be the ANTICHRIST because the Mahdi, like the Qur'an and all Muslims, will DENY the crucifixion of Jesus Christ the Son of God and will only recognize Allah of the idolatrous and abominable Kaaba and the Hajr (black stone) as his god. Prophet Isa, according to Islam, will "return" to "break crosses" but in reality he will not be returning because he never came in the first place. The last of all the prophets was John the Baptist who came prophesying of the Son of God who would baptize with fire and the Holy Spirit: "The law and the prophets were UNTIL JOHN: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. Luke 16:16 The only Jesus that came is Jesus the Son of God, not Jesus the prophet. The Prophet Isa that will appear is an imposter of the true Jesus Christ the Son of God. [Not even one Messianic prophecy from the prophets of old (Jewish scripture) matches with Isa of the Qur'an. Try finding one!]. The Prophet Isa of the last days will therefore be the FALSE PROPHET of Revelations 13:11-18 and 19:20. BOTH Jesus the Son of God and the FALSE PROPHET will appear but on opposite sides of the final battle of good and evil. The FALSE PROPHET will help the ANTICHRIST.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said in a Hassan Hadīth, in the Musnad of Imām Ahmad and in Al-Adab Al-Mufrad of Imām Bukhārī: ان الدعاء هو والعبادة. "Indeed Du'ā is worship."

[@Mo-cx5om]

@It's a Journey Before turning to the Sunni hadith, one must note that the Qur’an does refer to Imam ‘Ali in numerous verses: he is one of the Ahl al-Bayt whom God has purified from all impurity and sins (33:33) and the near-kin (qurba) of the Prophet whose love is obligatory for Muslims (42:23). Imam ‘Ali is called the Guardian (wali) of the Believers after God and the Messenger (5:55), the Witness (shahid) from the Holy Prophet who verified him (11:17), and the Guide (hadi) of the community (13:7) after the Prophet. Imam ‘Ali is part of the holy progeny of Abraham from whom God appoints the Imams (2:124) and upon whom He has bestowed His guidance, wisdom and kingdom (4:54). Imam ‘Ali is mentioned in the verse of mubahala (3:61) as the self (nafs) of the Prophet Muhammad. Verse 5:67 of the Qur’an was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad in right before the Prophet’s final announcement at Ghadeer Khum where he announced that ‘Ali is the mawla of the believers. The hadith statements presented below appear in Reza-Shah Kazemi, Justice and Remembrance: Introducing the Spirituality of Imam ‘Ali, p. 18-20, and are accompanied here by their original references from recognized Sunni Muslim hadith books: ‘ala’l-Mustakrak al-Sahihayn by al-Hakim al-Naysaburi whose hadith isnads meet the criterion of Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, and the Khasa’is Amir al-Mu’minin ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib compiled by Ahmad b. Shu‘ayb al-Nasa’i who also authored one of the six Sunni canonical hadith collections. Later Sunni Muslim exegetes like Jalal al-Din al-Suyuti have also quoted these hadiths extensively in their works. Truly, ‘Ali is from me and I am from him (inna ʿAlī minnī wa anā minhu), and he is the walī (patron/spiritual master) of every believer after me. Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 19, No. 4636; Ahmad b. Shu‘ayb al-Nasa’i, Khasa’is Amir al-Mu’minin ‘Ali b. Abi Talib, Tehran 1998, 129) ‘Ali is with the Qurʾān and the Qurʾān is with ‘Ali. They will not separate from each other until they return to me at the [paradisal pool] (al-ḥawḍ). Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 927, No. 4685) [To ‘Ali]: Are you not happy that you should have in relation to me the rank of Aaron in relation to Moses, except that there is no prophet after me. Prophet Muhammad, (Ahmad b. Shu‘ayb al-Nasa’i, Khasa’is Amir al-Mu’minin ‘Ali b. Abi Talib, Tehran 1998, 76) Three things were revealed to me regarding ʿAlī: he is the leader of the Muslims, the guide of the pious and chief of the radiantly devout (sayyidu’l-muslimīn, imāmu’l-muttaqīn, wa qāʾidu’l-ghurra’lmuḥajjalīn). Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 936, No. 4723) Gazing upon ʿAlī is an act of worship (al-naẓar ilā ʿAlī ʿibāda).)) Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 938, No. 4736) May God have mercy on ʿAlī. O God, make the truth revolve around ʿAlī wherever he turns (adiri’l-ḥaqq maʿahu ḥaythu dāra) Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 927, No. 4686) ‘Ali is as my own soul (ka-nafsī). Prophet Muhammad, (Ahmad b. Shu‘ayb al-Nasa’i, Khasa’is Amir al-Mu’minin ‘Ali b. Abi Talib, Tehran 1998, 104) You [‘Ali] are from me and I am from you (anta minnī wa anā minka). Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 924, No. 4672) Whoever obeys ʿAli obeys me, and whoever disobeys him disobeys me. Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 925, No. 4678) [To ‘Ali]: You will clarify for my community that over which they will differ after me. Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 926, No. 4678) There is one amongst you who will fight for the taʿwīl [spiritual interpretation] of the Qurʾān as I have fought for its tanzīl [literal revelation].’ Abū Bakr asked, ‘Is it I?’. The Prophet said, ‘No’. ʿUmar asked, ‘Is it I?’. The Prophet said, ‘No, it is the one who is mending the sandal.’ The Prophet had given ʿAlī his sandal to mend. Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 926, No. 4679) O ʿAli, whoever separates himself from me separates himself from God, and whoever separates himself from you, O ʿAli, separates himself from me. Prophet Muhammad, (al-Hakim al-Naysaburi, Al-Mustadrak ‘ala’l-Sahihayn, Beirut 2002, 927, No. 4682) ‘Ali is from me and I am from him (ʿAlī minnī wa anā minhu), and nobody can fulfill my duty but myself and ʿAli. Prophet Muhammad, (Ahmad b. Shu‘ayb al-Nasa’i, Khasa’is Amir al-Mu’minin ‘Ali b. Abi Talib, Tehran 1998, 106) He whose mawlā [master] I am, this ʿAlī is his mawla (man kuntu mawlāhu fa-ʿAlī mawlāhu).

[@dr.mobarakali255]

Indeed... Jazakum Allahu Khairan Katheeran. "...Wa Aliyun Maula." Ali Ibn Abu Talib AS was the only legitimate and Rightful Successor as designated by the Messenger of Allah himself SAS. Some of the most meritorious, indisputably prominent and distinguished characteristics and status of Ali AS over and above ALL the other Sahabas can be highlighted as follows: 1. Ali AS was brought up in the household of the Prophet SAS from the tender age of 10 when the Prophet SAS was then 30 years old, 10 years before Revelation and never worshipped idols, unlike the rest of the Sahabas. 2. Dawatul Ashira - 609 when Ali AS was the first male at 23 years old who openly declared acceptance of Islam directly to Prophet SAS, while the other paternal blood relatives declined. Refer to 26:214. The Prophet SAS then referred to him as "Akhi", "Wasi" and "Khalifa". 3. Lailat Mabit - 622 when Ali AS readily and happily risked his life for the Prophet SAS by agreeing to sleep in his SAS's bed for the Hijrah, at the assasination plot to kill the Prophet SAS by the tribesmen. Refer to 2:207. 4. On the Hijrah from Makkah to Madinah, the Prophet SAS left Ali AS in charge of executing the Amana by returning the valuable possessions of some Makkans kept with the Prophet SAS back to the people as a Sacred Trust. 5. The Prophet SAS then gave Ali AS another Sacred Trust to take the three Fatimas - Fatima Zahara AS, his own mother Fatima and Fatima, daughter of Hamza safely to join the Prophet SAS in Madinah and single-handedly valiantly fought off attackers on the journey. 6. A few months upon arrival in Madinah, the Prophet SAS ordered the Muhajireen to each choose an Ansar as his brother to cement brotherhood, but he SAS did not request Ali AS to do so. Neither did the Prophet SAS himself do likewise. Instead, he SAS held Ali AS's hand and declared him as his SAS brother to affirm their special and unique relationship in this world and the Hereafter. Refer to 59:9. 7. Marriage to Fatima AS - 624 when Ali AS was choosen to marry the daughter of the Prophet SAS, while Abu Bakr and Umar RA were refused. Ali AS was the paternal cousin of the Prophet SAS, son-in-law and closest confidante and their house was the only door left open to Masjid Nabawi when all others were ordered closed. 8. Battle of Badr - 624 when Ali AS put down more of the enemies than any other from among the 313 ill equipped Muslims against some 1,000 strong and better equipped enemies of Makkah. 9. Battle of Khaibar - 629 when Ali AS brought an astounding victory to the Prophet SAS. After Abu Bakr and Umar RA failed to do so before him on two separate attempts, the Prophet SAS made an amazing statement: "Tomorrow Allah will send a man who loves Allah and His Prophet and Allah and His Prophet love him too. He will deliver Khaibar to me." 10. Battle of Hunain - 630 when the army of 12,000 fled the arrows in the valley by the Hawazin and Thaqif of 24,000 strong against the Prophet SAS, while only 8 distinguished Companions remained with the Prophet SAS, not including neither Abu Bakr, Umar nor Uthman RA. Ali AS brought final victory to him SAS at Hunain. 11. Ghazwat Tabuk - 630 when the Prophet SAS left Ali AS in charge of Madinah and likened him to himself SAS as Aron was to Moses AS as Nabi and Successor. Refer to 13:7. 12. Ghadeer Khumm - 632 on the 18th of Zul Hijjah after the Farewell Hajj, when the Prophet SAS explicitly and publicly declared Ali AS his SAS's Successor and those present openly congratulated him, including Abu Bakr and Umar RA. 13. Mubahala - 632 when the Prophet SAS entered into Divine Curse with the Christians of Najran to prove the Truth. The Prophet SAS took along with himself only Ali, Fatima, Hasan and Husain AS as his family to confront the Christians. Refer 3:61. 14. Kisa - 632 when the Prophet SAS took only Ali, Fatima, Hasan and Husain AS under his cloak at the Revelation of Ayat Tathir, 33:33, as the only members of Ahlul Bait. He excluded others even though it happened in the house of Umm Salama RA who expressly requested to be included. 15. This highlights the superiority of Ali AS over all the other Sahabas, when the Prophet SAS declared: "I am the City of Knowledge and Ali is the Gate." 16. Consider why the Prophet SAS, at his death bed, when he SAS ordered everyone, including Abu Bakr and Umar RA who refused to join Usama bin Zaid's Army against the Romans but particularly insisted that only Ali Ibn Abu Talib AS alone should remain with him SAS in Madinah.

Hatib Baghdadi narrates from Abu Hurayra with an authentic deed: "Whoever fasts on the 18th day of Dhul-Hijjah, Allah (swt) writes for him the reward of sixty months of fasting. That day is the Day of Ghadir." At that time, the Prophet (pbuh) took Ali's hand and said: "Am I not the guardian of the believers?" People: "Yes." When he said that, he said: "Whoever I am his mawla, Ali is his mawla." Meanwhile, Umar b. Khattab said: Blessed! Blessed! O son of Abu Talib. You have become my mawla and every Muslim's."
