Signs of Jesus’ (pbuh)
Second Coming
42. Revolutions
… Fitna, conflict, and revolution be-
come legion, and people kill one an-
other. People commit suicide, and
evil is pervasive all over the world.
(Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-Qurtubi,
p. 482, no. 901)
The growing number of civil wars and revolutions are among
the important signs of the Hereafter given by our Prophet (may God
bless him and grant him peace). In the second half of the twentieth
century, such Central and South American countries as El Salvador
and Nicaragua, being the foremost, were ravaged by revolutions,
coups, and counter-coups. At the beginning of the 1980s, with the
strenghtening of guerilla movements organized in the countryside,
conflicts of interest between executive cadres and military leaders
turned into a massive conflict and chaos impacted some 22 million
people. In Nicaragua, Somoza was overthrown, and massive upris-
ings took place in Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala that led to
many thousands of people being killed.
