                  38. Replacing God with Other “Deities”






                                The system of night and day
                                will not end until the people
                                have taken to worship of Lat
                                and ‘Uzza… (Sahih Muslim)








                  Many tribes of my people will adhere to associators and revert
                  back to disbelief before the Hour … (Muhammad ibn `Abd al-
                  Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha`ah li Ashrat as-Sa`ah, p. 287)

                  The Last Hour will not come before the tribes of my people at-
                  tach themselves to the polytheists, and tribes of my people wor-
                  ship idols. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah)

                  Ascribing associates to God, or deeming someone or something
              (idols) worthy of worship besides God, is a great sin. Some people
              think that idolatry involves worshipping statues carved out of stone
              and wood, as people did in the past. But this is a great mistake, for
              idolatry also means those who ascribe associates to God. Having faith
              in God alone, as described in the Qur’an, means dedicating oneself to
              God alone. In other words, one believes in attaining God’s good plea-

              sure and mercy alone. In the End Times, the number of true believers
              who do not ascribe associates to God will diminish, and the number
              of people who embrace superstitious beliefs will increase.
