Read | - A valuable part of Richardson's work is his elucidation of the importance of the 12th or future and final 'Mahdi', to Islamic eschatology and belief. Most people don't realize just how powerful this ideal is to the believing Muslim. As he relates, ...there are no true Muslims who do not believe in the last day and the events that precede it. [p.19] There are no true Muslims who don't also believe in the un-holy Koran. The Mahdi is as central to Muslim theology as the purity and greatness o ... Tags:Political Islam, Muslims hate Jews
1st Parts: Book Review: 'the Islamic Anti-christ', Joel Richardson, 2009, Wnd Books. By: C. Read | - The theme is clear and one which appeals to those who believe in the literal nature of Christian liturgy.

Qarmatians By: Ibrahim | - "It is learnt that a group of Mubarakiyya in Kufa among the Ismaili orbit believed in the Mahdism of Imam Muhammad bin Ismail, anticipating his return, which had never been promulgated by the official dawa. Granted that it was the propaganda of the Ismaili dawa, there would hardly be a place left for the Imams for them in the line of Muhammad bin Ismail.

From a mystical viewpoint Christ represents a certain occult principle within the microcosm. It is actually what is called the "Higher Self," "Christ Consciousness," or in psychology, the "superconsciousness." Certain esoteric teachings know Christ to be the Spiritual ...

Ahmadinejad and his mates have said many times they want to wipe Israel off the map, destroy America, bring about an Islamic world etc etc. All of this would be funny if Ahmadinejad wasn't about to commission nuclear weapons and wasn't successfully reeling in Indonesia and every other Muslim state and individual into the great plan. It truly is a great plan bringing pe ... Tags:military, Islam, war, Muslim, nuclear
