them, the dajjal, who will come to lead them, will manifest awesome

Letter")
Bediuzzaman refers to the destructive effects of the natural-
ist-materialist philosophies on society. His words "a tyrannical
current born of naturalist and materialist philosophy" seem to in-
dicate materialism and Darwinism, the foundations of atheism. In
the end times, these two philosophies will spread around the
world on the back of the materialist philosophy and openly deny
the existence of Allah. Its proponents, in their own way,deny the
infinite power of Allah and instead are deluded to believe them-
selves to have powers independent of Him.
He gives the following account of the irreligious powers
formed by the antichrist:
Moreover, in the world of humanity, with the intention of denying
the Godhead, the secret society of the dajjal (antichrist) will over-
turn civilization and subvert all mankind's sacred matters. A zeal-
ous and self-sacrificing community known as a Christian
community, but worthy of being called "Muslim Christians," will
work to unite the true religion of Jesus (pbuh) with the reality of
Islam, and will kill and rout that society of the dajjal [make him in-
effective], thus saving humanity from atheism. (Letters, 515)
"… with the intention of denying the Godhead, the secret society of
the dajjal (antichrist) will overturn civilization and subvert all
mankind's sacred matters…": Bediuzzaman defines the irreligious
movements represented by the dajjal as a secret society that will
overturn civilization and subvert all mankind's sacred matters in
order to deny Allah's existence.
