The Sū rah then proceeded to narrate the story in which some

young men with faith in their hearts (and who were thus not afraid
to grow their beards) fled from enemies who were waging war on
Islam. Those enemies worshipped gods other than Allah Most
High. Today’s modern world that wages war on Islam is comprised
of precisely such people. They are Dajjā l’s peoples and they seize
such young and ardent Muslims and subject them to statesponsored
terrorism/torture in places such as Guantanamo, the US
military base in Cuba. Those young men in Sū rah al-Kahf fled for
safety to a cave. They acted in that way in order to preserve faith in
Allah Most High. They then prayed to Allah for help. Allah Most
High then put them to sleep and they slept for 300 years. Divine
intervention saved the youths from harm. The Sū rah went on to
establish a link between this story and the Divine warning (Wa‘d)
of a terrible age of trials and tribulations (i.e. the age of Fitan) that
was to come. When that age arrives it would witness the
continuous unfolding of Signs of the Last Hour (Sā ‘ah):
49
﴿ ‫ذل َ ك َ و‬ ‫عث أ َ ك‬
َ ‫ه ِ ي َعل نا ر‬ ‫َعل ي ل م‬ ‫أنَ موا‬
‫و‬ ‫حق ه الل د ع‬ ‫عة سا ال َوأن‬
َ ‫ال‬
َ ‫ب ي ر‬
‫ها في‬.… ﴾
“And in this way have We drawn attention to their story, so that they (i.e.
mankind) might know (whenever this subject is studied or discussed) that
Allah’s warning (concerning an age to come that would be one of great
trials and tribulations) is true, and that there can be no doubt as to (the
coming of) the Last Hour . . .”
(Qur’ā n, al-Kahf, 18:21)
That age of Fitan concerning which both Allah Most High
and His Messenger, Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu ‘alaihi wa sallam)
had warned has already arrived! Muslims around the world are
now targeted and terrorized by a ‘war on terror’ — mearly a
repetition of that ‘war on Islam’ described in the Sū rah. The story
helps our readers to recognize the reality of that war to be a ‘Sign’
of the ‘Last Hour’. The Sū rah helps us to recognise those ‘people
of Dajjā l’ who are now waging war on Islam to be Gog and
Magog. They are a people who declare that Allah Most High took
unto Himself a son!
In order to survive that war on Islam with faith intact,
Muslims would have to follow the example of the youth in Sū rah
al-Kahf. They responded to war on Islam at that time by avoiding a
head-on confrontation with that evil storm. Rather they opted for
strategic withdrawal and sought refuge in a cave.
Today’s war on Islam would constantly intensify until an evil
messianic Israeli political economic financial and, of course,
military dictatorship is eventually imposed upon the whole world.
But Israel must first wage a big war or wars. That war could
50
involve a US/ Indian attack on Pakistan’s nuclear plants
simultaneous with an Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear installations.
It is possible that nuclear weapons would be used in those attacks.
Mumbai’s 9/11 act of terrorism, which occurred as this book was
nearing completion, was meant to eventually pave the way for that
attack on Pakistan that would eliminate that country from the
nuclear club. When big wars succeed in eliminating all such
obstacles, a universal dictatorship would then be successfully
imposed upon all of mankind. At that time, the world would
witness such oppression that Muslims would eventually have to
follow the same strategy of strategic withdrawal from the path of
the evil Gog and Magog storm while retreating to places like the
remote countryside. The blessed Prophet anticipated the advent of
precisely such a time and advised as follows:
Narrated Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudri: Allah's Messenger said, "There will come
a time when the best property of a Muslim will be sheep which he will
take to the tops of mountains and the places of rainfall so as to flee with
his religion from trials and afflictions (i.e. Fitan).”
(Sahīh Bukhā ri)
It is only in such remote communities that freedom would
exist in which young Muslims can be nurtured into men and
women with backbones made of iron and steel. Only such Muslims
would continuously resist oppression. Only they would refuse to
submit to and make peace with an evil messianic Israeli
dictatorship that continues to oppress innocent believers and to
hold on to the blood-stained fruits of its oppression in the Holy
Land in particular.

Any religion or ideology with a claim to truth must be capable
of explaining the reality of such amazing events as the nowemerging
universal political, economic, financial and military
dictatorship over all of mankind. This dictatorship is clearly
connected to a mysterious role that the State of Israel is playing in
the world. Failure to explain such events would render claims to
truth to be at least doubtful. This is so because these unfolding
signs increasingly threaten to confirm an outcome in the rivalry
between religions, ideologies and sects. We argue that these events
ought to be recognized as ‘Signs of the Last Hour’.
Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and the
mysterious European Jewish-Christian alliance that created modern
Western secular civilization, all make rival claims to truth none
louder than the last-named. How do they explain strange things
that are happening in the world?
Fourteen hundred years ago Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu
‘alaihi wa sallam) of Arabia, who could neither read nor write and
who never travelled out of his native Arabia except for two
business trips to Damascus, prophesied very strange things that
would eventually happen in the world. He explained that they
would be ‘Signs of the Last Hour’. He prophesied, for example:
“Women would dress like men”. They now dress with jackets and
trousers and even a tie in ‘working clothes’ that are quite
masculine. A woman who has worked in Trinidad’s Hilton Hotel
(managed by a Muslim) for fourteen years and was recognized
for her good work, was recently consigned to the ‘dog house’
because she resisted a new uniform requiring her to dress like a
man, tie and all! Women now wear ‘blue jeans’ that appear to be
an exact replica of men’s trousers. They do so in consequence of
52
a modern feminist revolution master-minded by Dajjā l the false
Messiah. He misled them into compromising their basic
functional role in society as wives and mothers while seeking to
assume the functional role of men instead. As a consequence so
many of the young have grown up with part-time mothers and
that has been something very grievous to them. Some women
also dress like men projecting masculinity, sometimes attracting
other women and creating opportunity for the establishment of
lesbian sexual relationships;
“Women would be dressed and would yet be naked”. Nakedness
in dress has now become commonplace amongst women
influenced by Dajjā l’s modern feminist revolution. First, the leg
below the knee was exposed. Then the hemline kept on rising
until it soared above the knee and threatened to expose intimate
underwear. Tight-fitting clothing left nothing for the imagination
since the ‘feminine assets’ were on display. The ‘one-piece
bathing suit’ was eventually replaced by the ‘bikini’, which then
made way for the ‘thong’, which would eventually make way for
who knows what! The natural consequence of this feminine
nakedness has been a sexual revolution that eventually made sex
as freely available as sunshine. Marriage and marital vows
constituted an obstacle to such ‘sunshine sex’. As a consequence
the institution of marriage was attacked in such a way that it is
now likely to eventually disappear. Sexual promiscuity and the
attack on marriage, in turn, wreaked havoc on the institution of
the family and is leading inevitably to the collapse of society;
Whoever lowers his gaze from what Allah has forbidden, may
Allah give his inner sight abundant light. Ā mīn.
“Men would dress like women”. A man cannot dress as a woman
and yet keep a beard on his face. The disappearance of the beard
from the face of the male that has already taken place in modern
Western civilization, and has already impacted on the rest of the
53
world of men, makes the eventual fulfilment of this amazing
prophecy connected to Dajjā l now possible. The Saudi ‘apology
for a beard’ made its appearance in the heartland of Islam, only
to be rivalled by Shuyukh of Al-Azhar University, Islam’s
famous institution of higher Islamic learning, who shaved off
their beards completely. It is almost certain that a man would
want to dress like a woman so that he could attract other men.
Hence prevalence of homosexuality would be a Sign of the Last
Hour. Already the so-called democratic Western world is
shamelessly imposing its perverted homosexual agenda upon
schools. A Canadian Muslim has drawn this writer’s attention to
what is in store for mankind and for Muslims: “We have a major
problem in British Colombia in Canada. The government has
appointed two homosexuals (who live together as man and wife)
to revise the school curriculum. These two, who cannot
themselves have offspring, have been given the right to rule for
the 99% of others who can and do have offspring! The new
curriculum requires that every child from kindergarten to grade
12 must be taught that homosexuality is socially and morally
acceptable. No teacher may refuse; no school board may refuse.
Children will be taught that they have the right to question the
values of their parents. Neither student nor parent, however, may
question the values of the homosexuals. The government insists
that it will not accept any religious argument opposing the
revision of the school curriculum. Worse is yet to come next
year, when even private schools will have to follow the revised
curriculum. Muslim schools will be obliged to do the same or
face prosecution.” It thus appears that a reconstruction and
redefinition of the male and female conduct and roles in sexual
relations as well as in society, as a prelude to the transformation
of society, is a necessary corollary of Dajjā l’s modern feminist
revolution;
