“While Muslims reportedly consider Daniel a Prophet, he is not mentioned in the Koran.” Then they ought to read the words of the Prophet Daniel in the Bible. Perhaps then some of them will begin to understand that they’re on the wrong side of history, being members of a body that will one day be destroyed forever …

Daniel 7:7, 11b,  26b-27a, “… in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast — terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left … I kept looking until the beast was slain and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire … his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever. Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the holy people of the Most High.”

iSLAM: Victims Crushed, Devoured, Trampled

By Tova Dvorin, INN – “The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) has destroyed the tomb of Biblical Jonah, according to Arabic media outlets, in a show of disdain for non-Islamic cultures.

‘ISIS militants have destroyed the Prophet Younis (Jonah) shrine east of Mosul city after they seized control of the mosque completely,’ a security source, who kept his identity anonymous, told the Iraq-based al-Sumaria News Thursday. ‘The militants closed all of the mosque doors and prevented worshipers from entering to pray.’

A witness who did not wish to give his name said that ISIS militants ‘first stopped people from praying in it, they fixed explosive charges around and inside it and then blew it up in front of a large gathering of people,’ according to AFP.

Mosul residents told AFP it took ISIS terrorists a full hour to rig the shrine with explosives before setting it ablaze. The shrine has reportedly been turned to ‘dust,’ an anonymous eyewitness stated.

Jonah the Prophet is known as the paradigmatic example of teshuva, repentance, in the Bible, and his story is recorded in the Koran as well.

According to Al-Arabiya, Jonah’s tomb was dated to the eighth century BCE, and his tomb was also one of the many historic mosques said to have been destroyed by ISIS Islamists.

A local Mosul official, Zuhair al-Chalabi, also told Iraqi news outlets last week that Prophet Daniel’s tomb was also destroyed.

The Book Of Daniel: Islam, The End Times, And Current Events – “Daniel 11:36-39 is not only a perfect description of how Islam operates as a religion, but is also a perfect description of what Islam is. An Islamic Antichrist will exalt himself over every faith and belief system that exists or has existed outside of his estate (H3653 ken — base, estate, office), outside of the religious ideology that the ‘seat of the beast’ forces upon everyone under its control. Antichrist (and by direct implication the one whom he represents, Satan) will position himself against everything called god or considered God or divine outside of his base/estate/office. He will exalt himself over Ayyavazhi. Over Buddhism. He will exalt himself over the gods of Hinduism and each and every single one of its sects or denominations. He will exalt himself over Manichaeism. Over Mithraism. Over Zoroastrianism. Over Confucianism. Over every Shinto sect and school of thought. Over every indigenous religion that exists or has existed in the Americas, in Eurasia, in Africa, in Oceania or elsewhere. He will even exalt himself over the One True God of gods — the God of his fathers — over Adonai, over Mashiach, over Ruach ha Qodesh. He exalts himself over them all by attributing to himself a Divine Title or Function held only by YHWH …” Read more.
