Belief That Muslim Antichrist Is The Expected Messiah

By Marci Glover


Islam has remained the fastest spreading religion worldwide. Over the recent past there has been an intensified argument that the expected Antichrist will originate from Muslim community. Muslim Antichrist has resulted to a worldwide suspicion and debates among the Islamic community and other religions. The religion has the second largest followers in the world.

Several authors among them Joel Richardson suggest that the expected world messiah will arise from an Islamic culture. However others have strongly maintained the view that the Antichrist will be of western origin as the bible depicts. Therefore the debate has degenerated into confusion on whether the Antichrist will come from the west or Muslim community.

Efforts to evidence some of the beliefs have necessitated a lot of research on happenings in western world. Various leadership regimes over the last few years have been evicted from power in the Islamic countries of Middle East. Colonel is among the leaders who were removed form leadership. He was toppled from power after ruling for over thirty years. Similar situations were witnessed in Egypt, Syria and Tunisia where powerful leaders that had to leave leadership by force after many years of authoritative leadership.

The professed goal of Islamic Brotherhood is to attain an international caliphate; centralized Islamic rule. The notion has spearheaded revolts by Islamic community. It is believed that they will have enormous wealth and an age of strength. This will help in the spread of Islam all over the world. Many argue that the threat of Islam spreading beyond any national border is real.

The Muslim brotherhood aims at destroying Israel and United States because they are a barrier to their activities. They view this step as a stepping stone towards the great revolution that will see the whole world convert into Islam. They hold the belief that their Mahdi (messiah figure) is the one to lead the grand caliphate.

There is conflict of beliefs among the Islamic religion. The Sunnis, a major faction of Islam, are of the view that their messiah will be a product of an election by representatives of Islamic governments. The Shiites however believe that Mahdi will be a descendant of Allah, a supernatural being, who will show up form some place he has resided for centuries.

The arguments have made many people especially in the West believe that indeed the Antichrist will emerge from the Islamic community. Christians all over the world are getting convinced that there is a supernatural being among the Islam who will soon arise as the Antichrist. The bible records that the figure will deceive the Jewish he is the Messiah who Christians are hoping for.

People have argued that Islam is inevitably grown strong at a high rate and unified more. Muslim leadership has interpreted it as a sign of realization of their ultimate goal. Its infiltration of Europe, the United States and other parts of the world has set forth the belief that Islam will be victorious in the globe and that their messiah (Mahdi) is the much proclaimed Antichrist.
