Islam growth in the world has increased at a very high rate in the past few years. Its membership forms the second largest religion worldwide. In the recent days many people have speculated and debated that the Antichrist will come from this community. One of the topics of discussion among believers and leaders of various religions is Muslim Antichrist. People hold different beliefs about this expected word Messiah.
Materials by different authors have been published supporting the belief that the figure will come from the Islamic community. On the contrary views by individuals like Richardson have been opposed vehemently by people who unequivocally believe the figure will hail from the western community as the bible has been interpreted for many years
Efforts to understand the various arguments have triggered people to study the happenings in the Mideast in relation to what those of the scripture. There has been overthrowing of various governments in a number of Muslim countries bringing to an end authoritarian regime of presidents. Longtime president of Tunis Ben Ali was toppled from power. In Libya, Colonel who had been in power for over thirty years was shot dead. Egypt witnessed the fall of Mubarak and so has Syria.
The revolts in these particular nations were led by the Muslim Brotherhood movement. The goal of this group is to introduce an international caliphate. This means the establishment of a centralized Islamic rule. They believe that once they attain this feet it will bring them wealth and great power. It will help them actualize their dream of having an Islam Caliphate that will spread across the world. The quick spread of the religion past boarders is already evident.
Islamic community aims at destroying nations like Israel and United States. They believe the two countries have been a major barrier for their activities. This is meant to be the initial tangible step that will help initiate the revolution that is supposed to see the entire globe fall under Islamic religion.
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.
This belief has made many Christians and westerners inclined to the notion that the Antichrist will bring to pass what is in the bible that a false messiah will come and deceive the Jewish that he is the real messiah that Christians in the entire globe have long awaited. The belief that the figure will arise from Muslim community has been reinforced by the current happening and the perception that Islamic leaders have on this particular issue.
The quick spread of the religion in United States of America and European countries is alarming. Islam becoming more united and stronger is an evidence that indeed with time the religion will be globally victorious. However, many have interpreted this to mean that Islam will produce the Antichrist.
