Islamist Revivalist Movement. It is partly a mirror image of the Protestant Christian tradition that a world made entirely Islamic with Jesus as Mohammed's Lieutenant and partly a fantasy of the inevitable return of sacred space, the caliphate that includes most of Spain, parts of France, the entire Middle East right up to the borders of China. As with the Christian scheme, Islam foretells of the destruction or conversion of the Jews. Prophecy belief in Judaism, the original source for both Islamic and Christian eschatologies, is surprisingly weaker. Perhaps a certain irony in the relationship between Jews and their God is unfriendly to an end-time belief these days but it lives on vigorously enough in the Lubavitch Movement and various Israeli settler groups and of course is centrally concerned with divine entitlement to disputed lands. We should add to the mix more recent secular apocalyptic beliefs. The certainty that the world is inevitably doomed through nuclear exchange, viral epidemics, meteorites, population growth or environmental degradation. Where these calamities are posed as mere possibilities in an open-ended future that might be headed off by wise human agency, we cannot consider them as apocalyptic, they are minatory, they are calls to action. But when they are presented as unavoidable outcomes driven by ineluctable forces of history or innate human failings, they share much with their religious counterparts though they do lack the demonising cleansing redemptive aspects and are without the kind of supervision of a supernatural entity that might give benign meaning
