		THE TRUTH ABOUT THE "PROMISED MESSIAH" - IV
		*******************************************

	The last thing which becom evident from these and many other
traditions is that the "Dajjal" for the eradication of whose mischief
the prophet Jesus will be sent, will be from the Jews, and he will
present himself as the "Messiah".  A person cannot understand the
reality of this unless he his acquainted with the history of the Jews
and their religious belief.  After the death of the Prophet Soloman
when the Israelites suffered from one clamity after the other and were
ultimately scattered throughout the world as slaves by the Babylonian
and Assyrian empires, their Prophets began to give them the good news
of the advent of "Messiah", who would deliver them from their disgrace
and humiliation.  On account of these prophicies the Jews had been
expecting the advent of Messiah, who would be a king, would fight and
conquer the lands and would gather together the Jews from all over the
world and assemble them in the Palestine and create a mighty Empire
for them.  But when, contrary to these expectations, the Prophet Jesus
son of Mary came as a Messiah from God, and came without an army, the
Jews refused to accept and acknowledge him as the Messiah and made up
their mind to kill him.  Since then the Jews the world over have been
awaiting the coming of the promised messiah, whose coming they had
been foretold, their litrature is replete with the visions of the
millenium.  They have been waiting for many centuries the imaginary
pleasure of the millienium as described in the Talmud and the
rabbinical litrature and living by hope that the Promised Messiah
would be a great military and political leader, who would restore to
them the whole land between their river Nile and the river Euphrates
(which the Jews regard as their heritage), and will gather the Jews 
togethor from every part of the world and assemble them once again in
the country.

	Now if the person look at the affairs of the middle East and
studies them in the light of the background of the Holy Prophet's
Prophecies, he will at once perceive that the stage is fully set for
the emergence of the Dajjal, who would arise as the "Promised Messiah"
of the jews as foretold by the Holy Prophet.  The Muslims have been
expelled from the major part of thre Palestine and a Jewish state of
Israel has been esteblished there.  The Jews from all over the world
are being drawn to it.  The U.S.A., Britain and France have turned it
into a great military power.  The Jewish scientists and experts are
developing it with massive aid of the jewish capitol and its this
power has become a great danger for the Muslim nations of the region.
The leaders of Israel have never made a secret of their desire that
they want to have the "Land of their heritage".  The map of the Jewish
Empire of the future which they have been openly publicising since
long shows that they want to take the whole of Syria, the whole of
Lebanon, the whole of Jorden and almost the entire Iraq in addition to
Iskenderun from Turkey, Sinai and the Delta area from Egypt and the
upper Hejaz and Najid from the Saudi Arabia, which also includes
Madinah.  From this one can clearly perceive taht taking advantage of
the confusion and chaos created by the prospect of some future world
war, they will try to occupy these territories.  Right on that
occasion the great Dajjal will arise as their promised Messiah.  The
Holy Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has not only given the news of his coming
but has also foretold that the Muslim will suffer colossal hardship in
those days; so much so that one day will appear as long as a year.
That is why not only did the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) himself asked for
Allah's refuge from the great mischief of the Dajjal but also exorted
his followers to implore Allah for protection against him.

	To counter and fight this Antichrist Allah will not send a
"man like messiah" but the real Messiah, whom the Jews had declined to
acknowledge as such two thousand years ago, and whom they thought they
had disposed him by putting him on the cross.  The place from where
the real Messiah will descend will not be from India or Africa or
America, but in Damascus, for Damascus at that time will be the actual
battle front.  From the foregoing traditions it should not be
difficult for anyone to understand that the Dajjal will enter Syria
with a Jewish army 70,000 strong, and will take position right in
front of Damascus.  Right at this critical moment the Prophet Jesus
son of Mary will descend in the eastern part of the Demascus near a
white minaret in the morning and will lead the Muslim againt him after
the prayers.  The Dajjal will retreat towards the Israel by way of
Afiq Pass and Jesus will pursue him and overtake and kill him at the
Lod airfield.  After this the Jews will be picked off and killed
wherever found so as to put an end to Jewish community.  Christianity
also will be finished after the proclamation of the reality by the
Prophet Jesus and all these communities will merge into the single
community of Islam.
