Fundamentalists neither apply the Koran nor do
they allow others to do so

Fundamentalism, or radicalism, is the antichrist's greatest sup-
porter against Islam. Our Prophet (pbuh) reveals this in a hadith:

Seventy thousand turbaned scholars from my Community will follow the
antichrist. (Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Musnad, p. 796)
In describing the people who will follow the antichrist, our
Prophet makes special reference to people who will emerge from the
Muslim community and portray themselves as "scholars." He also
says in a hadith that the group who will work on the side of the an-

tichrist against all the friends of God and who will inflict the worst
harm on the Islamic faith are fundamentalists who depict themselves
as Muslims.
In another hadith our Prophet says:

There will be deviants in the End Times; their minds will not function.
They will speak eloquently. They will read the Koran, but their faith
will not descend beyond their throats... (Bukhari, Sahih 3611, 5057,
6930, Muslim, 1066, Abu Dawud 4767, Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Musnad 1,
81, 113, 131, 289; Tayalisi, al-Musnad, no. 1984.)
As the hadith says, these people will use eloquent speech and read
the Koran, "... but their faith will not descend beyond their throats." In
other words, they will not heed the Koran. They will speak of the Ko-
ran, but they will not be devoted to it. They will rule not according to
the Koran but according to the superstitions they fabricate in the name

of the Koran. They will not regard the Koranic accounts as sufficient and
they will act on a faith of their own invention under the name of Islam.
The aim of the fundamentalists is to stop people from applying
the Koran. While adding elements that are not in the Koran onto Islam,
they also reject the commands and advice in the Koran that does not
square with their own superstitious fabrications.
