22:03 Conclusion

The concept of Islam as a global force is deeply rooted in its religious teachings, specifically through the emergence of the Mahdi, who will restore the Caliphate of Hasan, bring about abundance and satisfy everyone's needs (Mishkat al-Masabih 27:76). The Palestinian Messiah will rule in tandem, sending everyone back to their native lands (Ibn Majah 36:156); see OpenjusticeDotNet, “What is the best explanation for Abrahamic religions?” (2 Jul 2025) Rumble <https://rumble.com/v6utbif-what-is-the-best-explanation-for-abrahamic-religions.html>.

This vision contrasts with Jewish expectations that non-Jews would become their slaves (Shabbat 32b:6) and Christian beliefs in Jesus rapturing believers to the sky while leaving others on Earth to suffer the apocalypse.

However, Islam has faced challenges throughout history, as this video explains. The two most powerful regimes in the Middle East today—Saudi Arabia and Iran—were established through pseudo-Mahdist movements in 1979.

It is interesting to note that all Muslims are native to their countries except for Anatolian Turks who invaded the region in the 13th century, destroyed the Abbasid Caliphate, and assumed power themselves as self-proclaimed caliphs.

Today, Islam has grown significantly and possesses the numbers and resources required to rule the world. So why doesn't it? This video offers some insights into this question by considering both external factors like competing powers and paradigms, as well as internal factors such as historical development and community rule.

The success or failure of a paradigm depends on biological laws that determine its persistence, growth, or death and degeneration over time. For example, liberalism is synonymous with hedonism and ultimately leads to the end of civilizations, as stated in the saying: "Civilizations start with stoicism and end in hedonism." Christianity appears to have succumbed to death by a thousand sects since the Reformation and Judaism was reinvented with every failed Messiah, notably Bar Kokhba, Sabbatai Zevi and Jacob Frank, since Jesus.

The purpose of this video is not to advocate for or against any legal system but rather to explain and predict present and future developments in law on a rational basis.
