PART ONE
“Proofs have now come to you from your Lord. If any is capable of seeing (and recognizing them) it will be for (the good of) his own soul. And if any is blind (to them) it will be to his own harm. And I am not here to watch over you.”
(Qur’an, al-An’am 6:104)
The Qur’an Explains All Things – Including the Destiny of Jerusalem
The Qur’an has declared that its primary function is to explain all things:
“ .... And We have sent down to thee (O Muhammad) the Book (i.e., the Qur’an) which
explains all things...”
(Qur’an, al-Nahl, 16:89)
Since the Qur’an has made the above declaration the implication is that it must be capable of explaining that strangest, most mysterious and most inexplicable of all events ever to have occurred in the entire history of mankind, an event that is still unfolding but has already witnessed the following:
ÿ The final success of an essentially godless (secular) Europe in ‘liberating’ the Holy Land in 1917-8, this being achieved after a sustained Euro-Christian effort which had commenced almost 1000 years earlier with the Crusades.
[Why would a secularized and essentially godless Europe choose to persist in pursuing Christian Europe’s 1000 year -old obsession of liberating the Holy Land? And why would European Christians, having embraced Christianity
more than 1000 years ago, be the only Christians who would ever be obsessed with desire to liberate the Holy Land?]
ÿ The Euro-Jewish success in restoring the ancient State of Israel after it was destroyed by Allah Most High more than 2000 years ago - this success was made possible through the active assistance extended by the same secular Europe.
[Why would a secular Europe be so obsessed with assisting Euro-Jews in the restoration of a religious State founded more than 2000 years earlier by Prophets David and Solomon? And why would Euro-Jews be the only Jews obsessed with desire to restore the State of Israel?]
ÿ The return of the Israelite Jews (i.e., the non-European Jews) to the Holy Land after they had been expelled from that Holy Land by Allah Most High and had lived for 2000 years in a strangely scattered Diaspora; the European Jews brought the Israelite Jews back to the Holy Land but did not themselves ‘return’ to the Holy Land since they were never there at anytime before - they simply settled in the Holy Land.
[Why would a European people convert to Judaism and then be obsessed with the mission of liberating the Holy Land and bringing the Israelite Jews back to that Holy Land ‘by hook or by crook’?]
All of these things, which appear so strange and baffling to the world, appear to most Jews to validate the Jewish claim to Truth. This is so since they appear to fulfill the divine promise made to the Jews that Allah Most High would send to them a Prophet, who would be known as the Messiah (Arabic: al-Masih), and who would deliver to them all of the above and even more.
This book argues that the Qur’an not only explains these strange events but it also goes on to reveal the final destiny of Jerusalem. The Qur’an reveals a destiny that exposes the falsehood of that Jewish claim to Truth (above) and confirms the Truth that came with Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). That destiny will witness such Jews being punished by Allah Most High with the greatest divine punishment ever inflicted in history.
At the very heart of the Qur’anic view of the destiny of Jerusalem, and of the Holy Land, is the declaration that when the final count-down in the Last Age arrives Jews would be gathered from the Diaspora in which they were broken up and dispersed, and to which they had been consigned, and would be brought back to the Holy Land as a ‘mingled crowd’ (Qur’an, Banu Israil, 17:104). That Divine promise has already been fulfilled. Jews have already returned to the Holy Land and reclaimed it! Their success has led such Jews to believe in the religious legitimacy of the State of Israel that they created. Islam explains that this Israel possesses no religious legitimacy. Rather, those Jews were deceived in the greatest act of deception history has ever witnessed, and the stage is now set for them to receive the greatest Divine punishment ever inflicted upon any people. But before Banu Israil’s final divine punishment takes place, there is great drama which is yet to unfold in the Holy Land and, indeed, in the world.
