Ever since ancient times the Antichrist is always been of European Decent. There have been entitlements that developed in regard to the foretold the false messiah being of Islamic Origin. Opinions and different points of views have been raised across different religious based groups regarding the impending approach of the Antichrist. The question that many ask is, Will the Antichrist Be a Muslim? We look at these discussions brought forth across both platforms, the Islamic and Christian Antichrist.

A sub-section of Islamic community, the Shiite who are mainly located in Iraq, believes that twelve imams arose after the Imam. Imams are the spiritual leaders of Islamic communities who are also referred to as Prophets. Muhammad Al Mahdi was the twelfth Imam, was born 868 entered into a cave at the age 6 years while hiding from persecution and is believed to emerge back a time before the foretold judgment day.

Some section of Christian topologists, they bring forth the argument that he will be Islam. They claim that that according to prophet Micah in the bible, his end time prophecy the Assyrian invaded the land of Israel referring to the Assyrian as the Antichrist. The argument further claims that according to the book of Revelation the false messiah is described as being Leopard like with the feet of a bear and the mouth of lion, where according to Daniel the Medo-Persian Empire is depicted as a Leopard.

A section of Christians argue that Daniel refers to a prophecy on empires. In this prophecy Daniel foretells of a ram that is crashed with a goat which possessed a distinctive horn in between its eyes . In this prophecy the ram refers to the Medo-Persian Empire. Most scholars agree the horn signified Antiochus Epiphanes who rose from a section of the Alexanders Empire.

But despite all these discussions, there are suggestions of Antichrist not being Islamic is and one of the positive relationships between Israel and the Anti-Christ. Prophet Daniel foretells the false messiah will confirm a peace agreement with Israel for seven years. They also argue that Daniel prophesies the reconstruction of a Temple by the Antichrist. Based on the hostility that has been existent between the Christians and the Islamic community the fake messiah can not be Muslim.

More evidence further claims that due to geographical location the fake messiah wont hail from the Islam community. Different facts point that the new Roman Empire will be among the old nations of the Roman Empire. These countries consist of some parts of Europe and North Africa. It is this fact that leads to argument that it has always been Europeans who have always led the Roman Empire rather than Muslims.

Further evidence further points out the Assyrian which is referred in the bible dos not necessarily pay reference to Antichrist. This evidence is emphasized in the book of Micah, where the Assyrian referred to in the book was the enemy of Israel, and God had offered to protect Israel from all enemies.

The Assyrians being predominantly Christians further disagrees with the notion of him being Muslim. Most of Assyrians are located in Syria, Iraq and Turkey. Despite the fact that they are located in Islamic nations the Assyrians are over 90 per cent Christians further countering claiming that an Assyrian Antichrist would be an Islam.
