TERRORISM: THE RITUAL OF THE DEVIL

state of moral decline and general havoc in the world today, to recog-
nize the scale of it. Most are familiar with this degeneration and chaos,
no matter what country, nation or race they come from.
There is here another matter which is very important to keep in
mind. It has been revealed in numerous verses of the Qur'an that the
true lord over all the plots devised by the disbelievers, is God. In order
to test people, and to make know and to educate the righteous, as well

as to demonstrate the disbelief of the unbelievers, and for many other
reasons, God has allowed the works of the Devil in this world, and
therefore the Antichrist, as set within His preordained plan. For that
reason, the plots devised by those who deny God, can never, by His
will, achieve their objectives. This is confirmed in a verse:
They concocted their plots, but their plots were with God, even if
they were such as to make the mountains vanish. (Qur'an, 14: 46)

All through history, those who have denied God, and sought to
encourage others to do the same, have devised all kinds of plots to en-
snare others. Yet, according to God's command, all such ploys have ul-
timately failed, and only rebounded against themselves. This is an
immutable law from God, as revealed in the following verse:
…But then when a warner did come to them, it only increased their
aversion, shown by their arrogance in the land and evil plotting.
But evil plotting envelops only those who do it. Do they expect any-
thing but the pattern of previous peoples? You will not find any
changing in the pattern of God. You will not find any alteration in
the pattern of God (Qur'an, 35: 42-43)

The same fate is destined for the plots devised by the Antichrist
and his ideological system. That entire system itself is a method of de-
ception specifically designed to keep people from the way of God. No
matter how complex the plots, and how wide-ranging and effective the
