The Question On Whether Will The Antichrist Be A Muslim

By Essie Osborn


The traditional view pertaining the race and geographical area, where he will be born or emerge lead to a Caucasian male or an Arab. This information is based on the book of Daniel. Conversely, the idea may perhaps be compelling a different turn that gets us to the inquiring of whether Will the Antichrist be a Muslim. Reason being, recently, Muslims have portrayed a rather radical viewpoint in their fight to have the whole subordinate to Allah the Great.

The Antichrist in modern day literature, come from the East of Rome or the present day Italy. This are some of the suggestions. To be specific, from Assyria. In the modern global map, Assyria can imply the present day Syria or Iraq. This does not fully answer the question of this religion these Antichrist ought to come from but gives the general opinion where he will come from and that it is from a heavy Islamic concentrated region.

The above descriptions however fail to completely retort the query of the real faith of these people. In the future, where he is expected to originate from. It also gives the overall judgment of where he would emanate and according to the information given above denotes a heavy Islam concentrated region.

The given evidence on the origin of where this man ought to come from all point to Europe. The Antichrist will sign a deal with the Israelites or the nation of Israel in a move to unite and bring peace to the war torn area. This deal is believed to bring peace for seven years and that is the main reason as to why there is a huge possibility of him being a Muslim and coming from this area.

The whole idea of him being a Muslim has drawn comparison to the current Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. This is because he is believed to be coming from the Middle East. Syria lies at the boundary between Europe and the East. Its political instability and constant feuds with Israel brings the notion that at time would come when this man unite the two nations together under the veil of peace.

Currently, the man who sits on a position that can easily perform prophesied functions is the president of Syria. Bashar al-Assad, the head of the Syrian government is at the center of the crisis that has left more than one hundred thousand people dead and over a million Syrians migrating to neighboring countries. He stands at a position of twisting the turn of events however he does not explicate the traits said to be possessed by antichrist.

The scriptures say that this man will come and destroy the church. He will persecute the true worshippers and the same time purport to preach the gospel. This is a contradiction if we were to term him as a Jew or an Arab. The Romans are the only people recorded to have committed mass prosecutions to the early believers. This consequently makes us redirect our focus to the Romans.

Consequently, we can only speculate his coming. The times however are around the corner. The scriptures point at a time of hardship and war. These are those times and it is quite important to get the facts right.
