A detailed analysis of the Quranic prophecy pertaining to the Children of Israel and their rise and fall.
so the question is does the Quran predict or prophesize the end of the Israel so it's a very interesting question and as we start please note prophecies are complex matters the Quran complex which require delving deep unpacking analyzing synthesizing and Allah says the true meaning of the prophecies is only known to Allah and then makes an exception or it and those who have dived deeply and advanced and knowledge who have the technical capabilities to unpack to analyze to synthesize the prophecy and then they draw their conclusion and when they draw their conclusions even then they're not sure if this is 100% what will happen Allah knows best so with regards to the question that you have asked and the prophecy or the verses associated with it what I will do is I will unpack the verses with you and then uh you can draw your own conclusions at tal so the verses which most Scholars associate with this matter is the verses of Surah is also known asah bani is in says the first thing to note and you must keep this in mind throughout this discussion is that the Quran was revealed to the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and by extension to the Believers so in this verse Allah is telling the prophet sallallah alaihi wasallam about another nation and this is the children of Israel and the verse with and this word is used 10 different ways in the Quran like to 10 different ends 10 different meanings one of its meanings is to decree and decree is different types so there is decree um as is like you have to do but in the verse that we are discussing this is meaning that Allah has decreed this as a matter of destiny that this is what will happen to the children of israelil so we decreed to the children of Israel in the book the book here the scholars say it could mean the t as in it is in their scriptures so Allah is informing the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam that we inform them or we decreed this matter to them and informed them in their book or we decreed this matter to the children of Israel in the book in which the M are written the Destinies are written the future is written and that is uh one of the books and that is which is with Allah above the heavens so irrespective of where it is written it written that twice you will re Mischief Earth and you will reach Mighty Heights so when it comes together that you will reain Mischief as in Mischief will happen associated with like a has in associated with strength and with arrogance and with height and with might these two things together this is a different Mischief than the ordinary Mischief like the more ordinary Vice and evil that the ordinary man commits is not associated with but when it is associated together it denotes it can be interpreted to mean that twice you will be given Reign and Authority on Earth Earth and in that rain evil Vice and spread and then Allah continues not describing how they will reach there and what will happen and all of that he goes to um when the end of the first rain comes like Allah doesn't talk about when the rain it just go straight that when the end comes this is how it will end Reign uh the end and the downfall of the first Reign or the first Kingdom or the first Authority when that happens we will send against you mighty Servants of ours who are strong and St and they will not only be Victorious on the battlefield but the Quran says they will Traverse and go through your out so it is a it will be a major defeat and notice for the brothers who are into this and the students of knowledge this not so this is not t this is not to denote uh that these are special Servants of ours righteous or Believers instead of that would denote you know special or um faithful or righteous uses so they are our servants and all Heaven and Earth is the Servants of Allah willing or unwillingly but their only characterization is that they Mighty War hardened and severe or or you so when the end of the first rain comes they will be defeated and it will not be an ordinary defeat but it will go through the civilian areas and through their dwellings and they will be uh ransacked like that if you like for a use of a better word and historically when you look during the reign of dam or King David a mighty civilization of the children of Israel came about and then sonan you know we say Solomon May the peace and blessings of God be upon him because Mighty messenger of God or King Solomon as they refer to it in English He inherited the kingdom and vast Mighty Majestic righteous Godly uh God-fearing uh civilization had ensued and obviously God's favor is upon them but Solomon was a mighty ruler and as soon as he died there was a huge vacuum you know power vacuum and very hard to fill the shoes of Solan so the nation deteriorated and fighting started to happen two different civil two different groups were created and evil and vice and uh sin spread so God Almighty as per diverse sent other civilizations against them U so the Babylonian scam and the Persian scam and the the Romans came and um and when the Babylonians came as per diverse almost word for word they went in and you know won the war on Battlefield then went into their uh dwellings and sought them out and tied them up and uh even Burt the Temple of Solomon and took them all as slaves to Babylon and for some 50 years they were not even allowed to go back towards um towards their their country that U you know the the state and then Allah says bear with me this is a bit technical then Allah says this was a promised now fulfilled so the Quran came to the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam some 14 and a half centuries ago so at that time the prophet is informed that this first rign has already passed that promise that fulfilled and then Allah continues next verse listen to this then Allah says notice that the Quran is for the Muslims revealed to The Prophet by extension for the Believers so theab here the speech here is to the to the Muslims then Allah says then we gave you victory over them referring to the Muslims that we gave meaning over the ones that defeated the children of Israel so this is the Romans and the Persians you know the Babylonians and then the Persians and then the Romans that came and defeated the children of Israel the children of Israel were never able to recover from that they never came and defeated the Romans they never defeated the Persians they never defeated the Babylonians but their defeat of these vast empires of the Romans and Persians was written at the hands of the Muslims so the Quran says to the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam at this stage there's been no war with the Romans no war with the Persians but Allah prophesies this is the Miracles of the Quran that you will become Victorious we will give you Aid you will Rush against the ones that defeated uh the children of Israel in reference to the Romans and the Persians so Islam conquered Rome and Islam says and we will give you wealth and children and make you the most populous of Nations and for those of the brothers and or Scholars Allah bless you all who argue that this is in reference to the children of Israel the children of they never became the most populous of Nations even today their numbers are very small compared to all other nations and the prophecy in this way am so oil fields or yours uh most of the money of the world is uh under you know uh the land of the Muslims where resources or you know hidden or discovered and banon children and alhamdulillah even today Muslim families outnumber non-muslim families by Fair bit normally Muslims like to have larger families they consider it you know nicer better they're that way inclined and it fulfills the Hadith of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and Allah bless you and your families and lastly today we are two billion and More in population so Allah told us you will reach the greatest population at the time where the verses are revealed they just a few thousand in me in in in Medina in in the in in the peninsula then Allah gives a beautiful uh advice says when you are given wealth and children and population becomes huge if you do good when Authority Falls to you when you have defeated Rome and Persia if you do good you will do good for yourselves as in you do good history will remember you for good the people will be happy from you for for being good heavens and Allah will be pleased with you for good so if you do good it you and if during your Reign and during your tenure and your Authority if you do wrong then there will be its consequences and then Allah moves listen carefully straight because he promised them two kingdoms the first one he talked about then he told us what will happen to us and then he goes straight Reign and uh the miracle of the Quran think about it dear ones at the time of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam there was no mention of the children of Israel coming back together you know a state forming all of this but the Quran says the two Reigns will come so the first one is there and another one will come so when it came when the state of Israel um you know was created uh it was a fulfillment and once it became strong and had Authority it was a fulfillment without them knowing of the quranic Reigns the first in the Quran uses the have the Quran doesn't use the first one and the second one it says first one and the last one and Allah is merciful sub so there will be a first rain and a last Reign so we are in the last Reign this is the only time after the time of King Solomon and the the deterioration and the evil and vice that happened after his Reign this is the only time where uh children of Israel have Authority or Reign um or estate so the Quran then went go straight to the signs of the end it doesn't talk about you know how it will form and all of this it goes straight when the end of the second comes when the downfall and the end of the second rain comes so just as a point uh these are prophecies uh verses that predict or prophesize what will happen into the future uh and we are having a academic technical discussion of verses that are in the Quran uh these are not calls to action nor is there any anti-semitic uh notion associated with this in case uh you know there's some silly person out there who wishes to make more of this than than it is actually intended so an academic discussion of Prophecy and Allah guide us to the truth so the proph says when the end of the second Reign comes and also Nations come and go uh like you know a a few years ago there was the USSR big block um on the planet America and all the nations uh you know were cautious of it but now the maps have changed and there's no USSR on it before that was the Ottoman Empire so Empires States uh count countries um change come and go and all of that so uh this is just a normal uh nature of of the way life is so the Quran talks about R and it gives these signs as the signs to watch for which will indicate the end of the second Reign listen carefully so says so of the signs of the end of the second Reign is that they would insult or wrong or hurt or embarrass your faces as in the face of the Muslims so when the humiliation of the Muslims who are the local populations uh you know in Palestine when that starts and that takes root this is one of the signs to watch for the demise and the end of the second reign of the children of Israel that's the first one one the second sign and they will enter the Masjid and in the verse in references Masjid AA they will enter the Masjid like they entered it the first time here's a beautiful little point to note so generally our Jewish cousins do not go into uh where the temple was or where the Masjid is or even where the white walles not in the numbers that you would expect some of them go but the great majority do not and the question is why because religiously they're in a state impurity so their belief is that if anyone has touched someone dead they're in a state of ceremonial impurity or if you touch someone that has touched someone who has is dead they fall into a state of ceremonial impurity religious um to what they believe as the temple so therefore they need to be cleansed they need to go through a cleaning process and the cleaning process according to them is that that red cow the red hia promised uh in the Bible must be slaughtered and with its ashes they will be cleansed from this impurity and then they can enter they can enter the temple mosque now they have been seeking this red high for years trying to find it so that they could have the ceremonial cleansing and then they could enter the temple or as the Quran says the Masid and eventually only now uh they have found it so I'm anticipating that the plan is that when it is found an animal without fault and flaw and a one that has never worn collar and a one that has never M it or had children all the you know the criteria that they have is met then what will happen I I I envisage this again it might not be accurate I envisage this that there will be a massive ceremony in which uh our Jewish cousins from around the world will flock to for this cleansing process and they will enter it in multitudes as they entered it in the time of Solomon and in the times of the prophets before so the verse says the second sign they will enter the Masjid the temple as they entered it the first time like in their masses and in their multitude um so that will be the second prophecy or the second part or the second sign of the demise of the second Reign coming one and they will demolish undo bring to the ground ground everything that has been built up above the ground um you see glimpses of this so now there are multi-story buildings in Palestine and Gaza and a rocket hits down the bottom and the whole building collapses uh exactly as the prophecy said they will bring to the ground destroy whatever you have raised above the ground there's another possible understanding of the verse as they will bring to the ground everything that has been built for the time or the duration of their reign uh meaning that there will be a lot of Destruction and downfall and Subhan Allah just with regards to uh you know to support the evidence of the of the second one that they will enter the Masjid uh towards the end of the Surah says when the last rain comes or the end of the last rain comes we will gather them from around around the planet uh and now in Israel they already gathered like they come from you know Europe and America and um you know y all around the world the children of Israel or you know their remnants coming but I think there will be a Monumental one a great surge um when they try to sacrifice this red hia and then it will again meet the next that we will gather you from all over uh so this is the prophecy that the scholars refer to with regards to the first and second Reign uh of the children of Israel and I pray uh this has answered your question uh my apologies for taking too long Salam
