Hosein examines Islam, the Great War, and the events which lie beyond it through the lens of Islamic eschatology. The lecture begins by introducing the meaning of eschatology, not merely as a study of the signs of the End Times, but as a roadmap to the End of History. Sheikh Imran explains that the movement of history cannot be understood through politics alone, but must also be read through revelation, prophecy, and the philosophy of history. A major focus of this lecture is the contrast between the modern Western claim of the “End of History” and the religious view that history began with Truth and will end with the validation of Truth. Drawing upon the Qur’an, Hadith, religious history, international relations, and eschatology, he explains the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic understandings of the end of history, the return of the Messiah, and the role of Dajjal in impersonating the Messiah. The discussion then develops into a sweeping analysis of the Great War, Jerusalem, Constantinople, and the events which Sheikh Imran argues will follow the war. Particular attention is given to the prophesied conquest of Constantinople, the significance of Hagia Sophia, and the historical wound caused by its conversion from a cathedral into a mosque under the Ottoman Sultan. The lecture also explores the civilizational and geopolitical implications of the emerging global order. In doing so, Sheikh Imran connects Russia, China, the Orthodox Christian world, and the world of Islam within a wider vision of eschatology, international relations, and the decline of modern Western dominance. The session further includes reflections on Pax Britannica, Pax Americana, Pax Judaica, the petrodollar, BRICS, the prophecy of the Euphrates uncovering a mountain of gold, Pakistan, India, Israel, Venezuela, and the role of oppression and justice in the movement of history. It concludes with a question-and-answer session covering China, the Qur’anic interpretation of destruction, ISIS and the caliphate, the future global order, Russia and the West, and the relationship between peace and justice. ✨ For those who wish to follow, support, or benefit further from the work, the following links are available:✨ 📌 Support on Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/sheikhimranhosein 📩 Email: [email protected] 📚 Visit the Bookstore: https://imranhosein.com 🌐 Join the Online Institute of Eschatology Telegram Channel: https://t.me/ieschatology 💬 Discussion Group: https://t.me/ieschatology_welcome_bot 🎙️ Topics discussed in this video: 🌙 Islam, the Great War, and Beyond ⏳ Islamic eschatology and the End Times 📜 The philosophy of history 🏛️ Francis Fukuyama and the End of History 🌍 Arnold Toynbee and Western civilization ✝️ Judaism, Christianity, and Islam on the end of history 🕌 Jerusalem and the State of Israel ⚖️ Dajjal and the impersonation of the Messiah 🔥 Armageddon, Malhama, and the Great War 🏛️ Constantinople and Hagia Sophia 🐻 Russia, China, and the Orthodox Christian world 💰 The petrodollar, BRICS, and the mountain of gold prophecy This lecture offers a sweeping eschatological and geopolitical analysis of the modern world, inviting viewers to reflect on history, power, truth, justice, and the signs of the End Times.
