The Encounter of a Companion of the Prophet, Muhammad with the Antichrist on an Island

Book 041, Number 7028:
Amir b. Sharahil Sha'bi Sha'b Hamdan reported that he asked Fatima, daughter of Qais and sister of ad-Dahhak b. Qais and she was the first amongst the emigrant women: Narrate to me a hadith which you had heard directly from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) and there is no extra link in between them. She said: Very well, if you like, I am prepared to do that, and he said to her: Well, do It and narrate that to me. She said: I married the son of Mughira and he was a chosen young man of Quraish at that time, but he fell as a martyr in the first Jihad (fighting) on the side of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him). When I became a widow, 'Abd al-Rahman b. Auf, one amongst the group of the Companions of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him), sent me the proposal of marriage. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) also sent me such a message for his freed slave Usama b. Zaid. And it had been conveyed to me that Allah's Messenger (way peace be upon him) had said (about Usama): He who loves me should also love Usima. When Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) talked to me (about this matter), I said: My affairs are in your hand. You may marry me to anyone whom you like. He said: You better shift now to the house of Umm Sharik, and Umm Sharik was a rich lady from amongst the Anqir. She spent generously for the cause of Allah and entertained guests very hospitably. I said: Well, I will do as you like. He said: Do not do that for Umm Sharik is a woman who is very frequently vizited by guests and I do not like that your head may be uncovered or the cloth may be removed from your shank and the strangers may catch sight of them which you abhor. You better shift to the house of your cousin 'Abdullah b. 'Amr b. Umm Maktum and he is a person of the Bani Fihr branch of the Quraish, and he belonged to that tribe (to which Fatima) belonged. So I shifted to that house, and when my period of waiting was over, I heard the voice of an announcer making an announcement that the prayer would be observed in the mosque (where) congregational prayer (is observed).
So I set out towards that mosque and observed prayer along with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) and I was in the row of the women which was near the row of men. When Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) had finished his prayer, he sat on the pulpit smiling and said: Every worshipper should keep sitting at his place. He then said: Do you know why I had asked you to assemble? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: By Allah. I have not made you assemble for exhortation or for a warning, but I have detained you here, for Tamim Dari, a Christian, who came and accepted Islam, told me something, which agrees with what I was-telling, you about the Antichrist. He narrated to me that he had sailed in a ship along with thirty men of Bani Lakhm and Bani Judham and had been tossed by waves in the ocean for a month. Then these (waves) took them (near) the land within the ocean (island) at the time of sunset. They sat in a small side-boat and entered that Island. There was a beast with long thick hair (and because of these) they could not distinguish his face from his back. They said: Woe to you, who can you be? Thereupon it said: I am al-Jassasa. They said: What is al-Jassasa? And it said: O people, go to this person in the monastery as he is very much eager to know about you. He (the narrator) said: When it named a person for us we were afraid of it lest it should be a Devil. Then we hurriedly went on till we came to that monastery and found a well-built person there with his hands tied to his neck and having iron shackles between his two legs up to the ankles. We said: Woe be upon thee, who are you? And he said: You would soon come to know about me but tell me who are you. We said: We are people from Arabia and we embarked upon a boat but the sea-waves had been driving us for one month and they brought as near this island. We got into the side-boats and entered this island and here a beast met us with profusely thick hair and because of the thickness of his hair his face could not be distinguished from his back. We said: Woe be to thee, who are you? It said: I am al- Jassasa. We said: What is al-Jassasa? And it said: You go to this very person in the monastery for he is eagerly waiting for you to know about you. So we came to you in hot haste fearing that that might be the Devil. He (that chained person) said: Tell me about the date-palm trees of Baisan. We said: About what aspect of theirs do you seek information? He said: I ask you whether these trees bear fruit or not.
We said: Yes. Thereupon he said: I think these would not bear fruits. He said: Inform me about the lake of Tabariyya? We said: Which aspect of it do you want to know? He said: Is there water in it? They said: There is abundance of water in it. Thereupon he said: I think it would soon become dry. He again said: Inform me about the spring of Zughar. They said: Which aspect of it you want to know? He (the chained person) said: Is there water in it and does it irrigate (the land)? We said to him: Yes, there is abundance of water in it and the inhabitants (of Medina) irrigate (land) with the help of it, He said: Inform me about the unlettered Prophet; what has he done? We said: He has come out from Makkah and has settled In Yathrib (Madinah). He said: Do the Arabs fight against him? We said: Yes. He said: How did they deal with him? We informed him that he had overcome those in his neighbourhood and they had submitted themselves before him. Thereupon he said to us: Had it actually happened? We said: Yes. Thereupon he said: If it is so that is better for them that they should show obedience to him. I am going to tell you about myself and I am the MESSIAH (Antichrist) and would be soon permitted to get out and so I shall get out and travel in the land, and will not spare any town where I would not stay for forty nights except Makkah and Madinah as these two (places) are prohibited (areas) for me and I would not make an attempt to enter any one of these two. An angel with a sword in his hand would confront me and would bar my way and there would be angels to guard every passage leading to it; then Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) striking the pulpit with the help of the end of his staff said: This implies Taiba meaning Madinah. Have I not, told you an account (of the Antichrist) like this? 'The people said: Yes, and this account narrated by Tamim Dari was liked by me for it corroborates the account which I gave to you in regard to him (Antichrist) at Madinah and Makkah. Behold he (Antichrist) is in the Syrian sea (Mediterranean) or the Yemen sea (Arabian sea). Nay, on the contrary, he is in the east, he is in the east, he is in the east, and he pointed with his hand towards the east. I (Fatima bint Qais) said: I preserved it In my mind (this narration from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him).

Who is Francis Fukuyama?

Francis Fukuyama is an American political scientist, political economist, and author known for his work on political theory and international relations. Born on October 27, 1952, in Chicago, Illinois, Fukuyama is best known for his book "The End of History and the Last Man," published in 1992. In this book, he argued that the spread of liberal democracies and free-market capitalism might signal the endpoint of humanity's sociocultural evolution and the final form of human government.

Education and Career

Education: Fukuyama earned his Bachelor of Arts degree from Cornell University in classics and then went on to receive his Ph.D. in political science from Harvard University.

Career: He has held various academic and research positions, including working at the RAND Corporation and teaching at George Mason University, Johns Hopkins University, and Stanford University. He is currently a senior fellow at Stanford's Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies.

Major Works and Contributions

"The End of History and the Last Man" (1992): Fukuyama's most famous work, where he postulates that the end of the Cold War marked the end point of humanity's ideological evolution and the universalization of Western liberal democracy as the final form of human government.

"Trust: The Social Virtues and the Creation of Prosperity" (1995): Explores how trust and social capital affect economic prosperity.

"The Origins of Political Order" (2011) and "Political Order and Political Decay" (2014): These books delve into the development of political institutions from prehuman times to the French Revolution and from the Industrial Revolution to the globalization of democracy, respectively.

Influence and Criticism

Fukuyama's "end of history" thesis has been both influential and controversial. Supporters argue that liberal democracy and market capitalism represent the most effective and just systems of governance and economics. Critics, however, argue that history is far from over and point to the persistence of authoritarian regimes, ongoing conflicts, and the rise of illiberal democracies as evidence that history is still very much in motion.

Current Work

Fukuyama continues to write and speak on issues related to political development, democracy, and international relations. His recent work often addresses contemporary challenges to liberal democracy, such as populism, inequality, and identity politics.

Medium:

Translated in English as 'Awaiting The Twelth Imam: Hidden Role Of The Iranian Revolution In Preparing The Antichrist'.

The work is not meant to incite hatred between Shiites and Sunnis or adherents to other religions but to raise their awareness, with the hope of building a better world.

Hopefully it will expose the hidden hands behind the current World situations that the International public probably had never even known of, discussing:

The Judaic origins of Shiism. Shiism and Islam are two different religions. Penetration of the Kharijites into Shiism after demise of the Caliph Ali. They were extreme Muslims who had left the mainstream Islamic community and war was declared by Ali against them following advice of the Prophet Muhammad who insisted on killing them for they will be followers of The Antichrist

Prophecy by the Prophet that the Antichrist will appear among the Kharijites. The book traces the religious lineage of present Shiites back to their Kharijite forefathers

Hizbullah's involvement in the killing of innocent civilians of Shabra Shatila. What are they up to now in Lebanon? Are they are trying to ignite the Middle East into potential World War Three and more dangerously attempting to win the attention of the Islamic World?

The secret US-Iran relationships. Enemies in public but friends in private. 'Irangate' scandal touched. Khomeini's path to power eased by the White House. Khomeini's strange beliefs and diversion from true Islamic teachings of the Prophet Muhammad

The mention by the Prophet Muhammad of the appearance of the Antichrist in Isfahan, Iran. Why in Iran, an Islamic fundamentalist state? Not in America?

Many Shiite scholars mentioned that The Twelth Imam, will also be the Messiah of the Jews and the Christians. Will it be the same figure who will appear as The Twelth Imam of the Shiites, Moshiach of the Jews and Christ of the Christians? Will he be the Antichrist?

The prophecy of the Prophet Muhammad in authentic narrations that the Antichrist will appear within the Muslim world (between Syria and Iraq), and not in the West as imagined by many Muslims. Several Biblical scholars argued based on their research that the Beast will come from the Eastern leg of The Roman Empire (now the vast area encompassing Syria, Iraq and Iran). The 3 countries are at present under the tight grip of the Shiite Governments

Situation in Iraq. Countless of Muslims are being slaughtered daily by Shiites, assisted by the Americans

Nostradamus prophesied that the Antichrist will destroy present Christianity and distort beliefs of Islam. Also mention by him of the taking over of Iran by placing a human decoy (Ahmadinajad?) into power and subsequently his future assasination before the Antichrist (Shiite Hidden Imam?) appears on the scene. The Hojjatieh Society, a secret society now controlling President Ahmadinajad and all levels of the Iranian Government, having philosophy very much similar to Freemasonry, one motto being 'creation of order before chaos to hasten the arrival of the Hidden Imam'

The Author's views regarding future World events in chronological order:
1) Appearance of the true Imam Mahdi appearing from Madinah, leading the World into Global peace and prosperity and paving the way for the second coming of Christ
2) World War 3 will erupt in the Middle East, wiping out both Middle Eastern Zionist and Islamic Worlds
3) Emergence of Iran as the new Superpower in the Middle East with support of the Antichrist appearing as 'The Twelth Imam'. The Antichrist will use Iran, not America as his stepstone, in order to confuse the minds of the believing people
4) Appearance of the Antichrist on the global scene after the War as Saviour of Humanity, appearing simultaneously as 'The Twelth Imam' of the Shiites, 'Moshiach' of the Zionists, 'Christ' of the Christians, 'Maitreya' of the Buddhists and Saviour awaited by other religions. Possibility of the present Ecumenical Movement being precursor to the future New World Messianic Religion of the Antichrist
5) The possibility of Greater Israel State being also Greater Shiite State. President Ahmadinajad's rhetoric to 'wipe out' the State of Israel is a charade designed to deceive the Muslims. Will the wiping out be followed by the greater combined Zionist-Shiite State?
6) If prophecies of Nostradamus can be relied, the taking over of Iran by the Antichrist, to be followed by unity of the entire Islamic Nation under him (The Prophet mentioned that majority of his followers will be deceived by 'Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal'), and eventually the merger of the entire Islamic nation with atheistic Russia and China to become the next Superpower. America's influence will be reduced greatly
7) Finally, the Antichrist will be killed at the hands of Jesus Christ who will put an end to tyranny and oppression on the Globe. The Golden Age (The Kingdom of God) will be established with the second coming of Jesus, after destruction of the Antichrist and subsequently Gog Magog. Humanity will embrace Islam in large numbers. Christ will take humanity to the understanding of Islam as originally brought by the Prophet Muhammad and his companions; Islam that is pure from polytheism and innovations and Islam that promotes advancement in spirituality as well as economy, business, science and technology
