Union, i highly doubt you listened to a full lecture of Imran Hosein's, this man is 70 and is continously willing to spread his message of islam which is correct, fools like you and grandpakhalif whom read the qur'anic text literally will never understand the topics he brings forth such as the Monetary system , Space and time, the End times and such, you won't find any Sheikh who has the guts to take on such powerful agendas as Sheikh Imran Hosein does, you are merely a pawn of the U.S anything the United States' Congress says you'll agree however anything this well intelligent man whom Allah (swt) has givin him Noor says, you'll disagree.
One question and please don't avoid it.
The Prophet Muhammad (saw) says "Dajjal will emerge riding a white donkey whose span of ears would be 70 yards”, "Narrated An-Nawaas ibn Sam'aan......We said 'Oh Messenger of Allah, how fast is he (travelling through) the earth?' He (salalahu alahi wasalam) said, 'Like rain behind the Wind'......." (Muslim)
What's your interpretation of this Hadith?
The Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآلہ وسلم) said:
"The time is near when the River Euphrates will uncover a treasure of gold. Whosoever may be alive at that time, should not take anything of it." What's your interpretation of this Hadith?
I don't read the qu'ran literally, and I have no idea why you are trying to compare me with grandpakhalif when we are on polar opposite sides of everything but perhaps lineage.
In fact, except for a few minor disagreements, you and grandpakhalif are virtually identical in your absurd viewpoints.
Imran Hussein is not a religious scholar, perhaps a commentator on politics and society, but not a sheik. He has some strange opinions which may or may not be true, I personally don't believe them, but if you want to that's your business--- just quit trying to make him out to be some sort of prophet whose predictions/ observations are without a doubt true.
Since you seem so keen on quoting the Prophet Muhammad saw, let me do the same:
The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم ) said: there will be people who will narrate to you what you and your fathers have not heard of before. So be aware of them and let them be warned".
I'd suggest exercising some caution and using your god given critical thinking skills before you accept the words of every youtube conspiracy theorist like holy writ, as you often do.
We now can both agree that we can never come to a common ground, i see the Qur'anic verses as a rich metaphorical language which cannot be correctly interpeted in the English language, and Sheikh Imran Hosein said himself " I advise you to not believe in what i say, because its just my opinion, I am not a Prophet, i don't get knowledge from Jinni's or such , my lectures are based on my research and analysis", i never took his word so seriously, but when i watched his lecture which was recorded back in 2002 on how they will construct fake protests in the Arab world in order to control them, and then i turned on the tv channel later on, i said to myself "wasn't it this sheikh who correctly interpeted and predicted this event" Union, you must understand that there are people who research the Qur'an deeply to get more out of it, very deep, in their research in order to find out why this is going on in the world, the Qur'an is the past , present and future, i am not a biased muslim like Grandpakhalif i do tend to listen to other sheikhs such as Sheikh Hamza yusuf Hanson, Sheikh Hussein Ye, and much more, most of the time i don't even listen to sheikhs, i follow Islam my reading from the Quran and Ahadith, but Imran Hosein is one of the only Muslims who's taken on tough subjects about the economy and future - Union just look at how he correctly predicted the events of last year thanks to the Knowledge that Allah has gave him, Allah gives knowledge to those who strive and seek it, he said that
-masses come out on to the streets - pro-american regimes will fall in arab world
- domino effect will take place and other goverments will fall
- it seems like the world of islam is rising and one-eyed muslims (like myself i suppose) are going to believe it...
- authentic goverments representing the masses will emerge
- jews/israel are gonna use this revolution as an islamic threat to israel - the media will portray it thus (fox news has already started this drama with the muslim brotherhood scaremongering)
- if israel doesnt do anything it will be slaughtered by us muslim fanatics - israel will launch "pre-emptive strike"
- state of the art technology will be used - technology that will leave even the americans in awe....nothing like this power has ever been since....israel will show the world that IT is now the ruling state in the world
- israel takes control of the oil in middle-east
- israel will then leave the world "for a day which is like a week" (based in his interpretation of a famous hadith about dajjal)
- war on islam will be at its worst, like nothing we've seen till now
the first few things on the list have already happened - what do you think about that? just a wild guess or does he have real insight and real understanding of what is happening?
some of his theories like the one about gog and magog seem far-fetched but one must give credit where it is due...he is the only scholar that i know that analysed world events and predicted one of the biggest things to happen in our lifetimes
