“There are three aspects of the Dajjal:
1. There is Dajjal the individual.
2. There is Dajjal as a worldwide social and cultural phenomenon.
3. There is Dajjal as an unseen force.

(According to (muslim) scholarly opinions, the latter two aspects will be established before Dajjal the individual will appear. That is, he will appear when the support system he needs is in place throughout the world either directly or indirectly).”

Lately I have been doing a lot of reading on this subject. It frightens me a lot that what oblivion over the years has prevented us Muslim from really seeing things in the bigger picture. What is happening in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Syria, in Palestine has got a lot to do with the prophecy of the end of time. What are we seeing is the systematic untangling of the New World Order (it sounded eerily similar to the Dajjal unseen force). Iraq was being bombed and destabilized in order to capture the oil there (There is a prophecy regarding gold will be revealed in the Euphrates, river that flows through Iraq). Afghanistan is being targetted now, even though there is nothing is there. Really, the only crops they grow there is poppy, it is a barren land. (But the prophecy regarding Al-Mahdi / Isa a.s was their Muslim troops will come from this area). It seems like they know where to strike. It seems like something conspiracy theorists will love.

Back on earth, there is already strife of talks amongst concerned Muslim parents  of problem about raising their kids in current time, what with the nudity and violence on TV and other media.If we try to understand the Al-Kahfi, it seems that the only solution is to get away from the cities, and live like the Amish.

Im not going to talk about the prophecy in detail, you can google it up and read them on the Net. The problem is, if dajjal the person is to come out during our time, are we prepared?

Aussie “blokes” is equivalent of US “dudes”

 no worries - you bet / forget about it (New York Style)  (Both means difference, but it usually follows after thank you, you’re welcome.

Fair dinkum - what the hell is that?

G’Day : hello! 

mates - buddy.

Manchester : Household linen, eg sheets etc. (At first I thought, when I visited stores here, the Aussie is the biggest fan on the MU. Really a FU if they are big fans.)

1. They are a nation of immigrants, except maybe for the abo_rigines..

2. They have a game of footy, poles like rugby, balls like american football, yet you can forward pass and kick ‘em balls. That’s crazy. You can high tackle, low tackle, but not karate chop. To score, all you need to do is to kick in between the middle poles to get 6pts, or the outside poles for 1pt.

3. Everyone here is your *mate*, like how everyone in the US is your *buddy*

4. They are proud of their “Australian made” or “Australian owned”, even though most business they have is wool, sheep, brewed beer, and massage parlour.

5. Used to be whipped by the All-Blacks, now they can whipped the All-Blacks at haka dance.

6. They have china town everywhere, Indian suburbs, Lebanese pide house, asian restaurant in every city.

7. Racism exists to some extent, except it get masked by “opportunism crime”, “zoning issue” etc.
